It can barely play Diablo 2 and lags on Starcraft. >.>
Something like...

333mhz Pentium 2
8mb ATI 3D Rage GFX Card
128mb RAM(which, is actually not too shabby)

and like everything else is just stuff that's like hooked up to the motherboard that I have no idea what it is.
It has decent amount of space though, something like 45gbs...because I bought a new HD >.>

333 MHz?  Wow.  Get a new computer...please.  128 MB of RAM isn't exactly bad, but you could do better.  Video card....I'll just say no more...

I've been asking for years, but, alas, my family is full of poor bastards...although, it seems, that my dad is letting me build a computer starting next month. =)

I would recommend adding onto it a Cobra EZQ 200GB external Hard Drive.  Talk about space to spare!

Nah, they're a waste of money.  Why even bother getting an external hard drive if you know how to build your own computer? (assuming you do from your previous post).

Yes, but they're much more expensive than internal.  Just get a CD burner if you want portable files.

Over time, though, CD's clutter up the place.  HD's are much safer for the environment!

HA HA HA!!!  That sounds like my last computer.  I had that baby for a loooooooong time.  Finally got rid of it 2 years ago.  Heh, the newest game that I could get to work on it was like, The Sims, and it ran like crap.
Chainsaw hands and text based sigs for great justice.

CJMErl: My computer's newer (Pent. 4 w/ WinXP), but the onyl real computer games I play on it are the "You Don't Know JACK" trivia games.  Everything else is *ZOMGROMS*.

Yami CJMErl: We HAD Sonic R for it at one time, but we got rid of it once we got Gems Collection for GCN.
