So, what do you play Minecraft (or other games) on?
Send a link to where you bought it, take a picture of it, or post the specs if you know them!
I'll start this topic of with my evolution of computers over the years.

This was the piece of crap computer that I used to TRY and play games on. And it was awful.
Specs:
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
CPU: AMD Fusion E300 Dual-Core @ 1.3 GHz
RAM: 1x 2GB DDR3-1333 (One ram slot was dead, the 1GB stick in the other slot couldn't be used
GPU: Onboard graphics; no expansion slots for upgrade
HDD: Hitachi crap that comes with all HP computers
This thing died a few months ago due to hard drive failure (Hitachi crap), and has since been used as a footrest. I may eventually put Ubuntu on it and use it as a home server or something.

This is my laptop, that is halfway decent, but definitely not designed for gaming. My grandparents got it for $200 used and recently gave it to me because they don't use it anymore.
Specs:
OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (Downgraded from Windows 8 Pro when bought to Windows 7 Home Premium, replaced that with Windows 7 Professional when grandmother dropped the computer and destroyed hard drive) and Windows 10 Technical Preview (will be upgraded to when 10 is released)
CPU: Intel Core-i3-370M @ 2.4 GHz
RAM: 1x 4GB DDR3-1600 SO-DIMM
GPU: Intel HD Graphics
HDD: 500GB WD Caviar Blue 7200RPM (Replaced stock Hitachi crap when grandmother dropped it)
Still works today, although it appears to be on its last legs.

This laptop was given to me by my school when it failed its testing for the project me and the schools IT are working on.

OS: Linux Mint 17.1 32-bit Rebecca w/ XFCE4 (Windows 7 Enterprise N was wiped out for the project)

It's somehow still working, and its what I used for a while during the time my gaming PC had no graphics card in it. Now its just sitting next to my desk, being useless.

This is my gaming PC. Some of the parts I received free from my Latin teacher. Other parts I purchased, and I assembled and installed everything on this computer.
Specs:
OS: Windows 7 Enterprise N 64-bit, Windows 10 Technical Preview and Linux Mint 17.1 64-bit Rebecca w/ Cinnamon (Tri-booting)
CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 620 quad core @ 2.6 GHz (clocked to 2.8 GHz cause why not)
RAM: 4x 1GB DDR2-1066 Dual Channel
GPU: AMD Radeon r7 260x 2GB GDDR5
HDD: Whatever was laying around in my basement essentially (there's 6 hard drives in this computer) Total capacity of 1.2TB
Yes, I named my computer Samantha.
The small laptop next to the tower is one of the 4 Lenovo Thinkpads that also failed testing that I have now.
Personally, half of what you stated above was in a different language. I really don't understand much about computers besides how to right and left click.
Anyways, my setup is basically:
Computer
Specs:
Well, it's red and has a scorpion on it. It also says "AMD" on the front. I think my computer and your Samantha are twins. And there's this blue flashing light that gets really annoying when you're using it at night. I'd say it weighs about 9 pounds but I'm not really sure.
Monitor
Specs:
There are probably like 15 wires going into it. Idk what they are, but they're working, I guess. It's mostly black with silver lining. Oh, and it has "DELL" on the front near the bottom.
Mouse
Specs:
My mouses pisses me off a lot. It's wireless, for some reason I though it would be a good idea to get a wireless mouse. It dies all the time. I'll be building away, enjoying myself, when all of a sudden, I just stop. It runs out of battery faster than an iPhone. I go through $30 of batteries a week.
Keyboard
Specs:
The keyboard is wireless, too. Somehow though, my keyboard was blessed by the battery gods because not once have I had to change the batteries on this thing in years.
I use a Retina Macbook Pro(13 inch)

Specs:
CPU: Intel i5 dual core at 2.8ghz
Ram: 16 gb DDR3 memory
GPU: Intel HD graphics
Storage: 250gb SSD
The mouse there (the black one) was a $10 dick smith mouse. Even came with battery's and has lasted 6 months without changing them.
