I'm so excited, I can hardly contain myself. My new computer won't even ship until after may 15th, and I can hardly wait! I ordered custom made from http://www.alienware.com

3.2CPU
2gig mem
250gig hard drive
DVD-CDRW with dvd decoder 1st optical drive
DVD-RW DL 2nd optical drive

Sound supression and cooling upgrade!

My Thai-made Powell computer has 96MB of RAM!

Sounds good, Mick! That should be a rockin' gaming machine. What does it have for a video card?

charlottegelin said:

Ya know...I love you, Charlotte.

TMPletz said:

quick lets get a room before someone else suggests it!

Congrats on the new PC... Good Luck with it!

It is a shame that Alienware is now a part of Dell

TMPletz said:

Yeah, and Mick G? I am so jealous. Everyone is getting a new computer except me

charlottegelin said:

I just got a new laptop today.

charlottegelin said:

Well, it's not exactly mine...more like Rachel's, but I'll still be able to use it.

TMPletz said:

my sister bought a new imac (with the no money she has) and she knows NOTHING about them, wants me to come and turn it on for her tonight.

charlottegelin said:

Oh boy...

That sounds like one of those people that need to take a course before they are even allowed to TOUCH a computer.

TMPletz said:

she has had 4 computers already, all which mysteriously got irrepairable problems

I got a computer made for me as well.

But I didn't have enough money to have it finished.

Coudn't even afford a picture of it too, I see.

I was going to get an improved video card, but from what I read about them, they are mostly for image rendering in high end computer games, and being that I am targeting my computer towards video editing, I thought it could just go with the basic one for the system.


64/128MB PCI-Express x16 NVIDIA® GeForce™ 6200TC

Well I read that although Dell did buy the company, it is still letting Alienware computers be built by the alienware company in accordance to their building beliefs. That's why I went that way.

had to say it again?

MickG said:

I knew it'd blow you away, so I said it twice. 96 megs, it hardly seems possible. I mean... in 1992 it hardly seemed possible.

No wait, it really doesn't seem possible. I didn't think they had the technology in 2006 to make a computer with only 96MB of RAM.

Fauxie said:

I simply chose to believe you were dropping the zero.

MickG said:

Your mind just didn't want you to picture the suffering. It's a natural response. You shouldn't feel bad. Just don't wait for me, I'd only slow you down. You need to follow your destiny.

I think I digressed.

Fauxie said:

at least it's not a commodore 64

Fauxie said:

reading that made me cringe with pain.

In 1992 I had a computer with 10mb ram and 80mb HD and I thought it was a super computer
