There is also a second PC running Jacklab, an audio-oriented Linux distribution. The specs are even less impressive than the main PC- it's a 2.9GHz Celeron with 1GB of RAM, an 80GB HD, and onboard sound. It was built from spare parts- some of which were from my last PC, and some of which were donated by my friend Kris at Just Bytes, the local computer shop- and is affectionately known as Frankenstein.
