Software:  Gimp,vi,Linux,FreeBSD
Hardware: Amd Athlon 900Mhz (1Gb), Dual Intel PIII 450Mhz (64Mb) and one lowsy as hell 15" gaypink monitor...

Note: during pixelation did the Linux machine compile the kernel... the monitor switched from 24bit color to Mono-Gay-pink color modes.
      not annoying at all.... No beverages were consumed during the making of this contribution...  Defenetly would have needed BEER!
