Clementine

  • Desktop
  • Primary workstation
  • Clementine is a primary computer for my fiance.  The needs of this computer are basic end-user tasks -- web browsing, email, word processing, etc.  However, this computer is still designed to be relatively high-powered, but won't receive as frequent upgrades as Fozzie.  This computer will occasionally receive used parts from other computers, but will mostly be built from new parts.
  • This computer was originally built May 3rd, 2007, and refined through May 18th, 2007. 
  • Images and commentary from the building of this computer can be found here.
