I start this topic because I recently got my main computing machine back from the computer technicians- it now works splendidly XD I got this thing (actually built it) for about 1200 bucks (including 22" widescreen flat monitor). What was its purpose? GAMEING! 4Gig DDR2 RAM 1 Terabyte HDD 3.2 GHertz Dual core that can be Quad NVIDIA PX8800 Graphics card 5.1 Digital Surround Sound System (yeeeaaahhh) (cant remember the rest of the specs off the top of my head) Only thing was, that the bloody thing didn't work! Finally getting sick of it, I sent it to the guys at the computer fixer-uppers. Turns out I had a corrupted BIOS. This is a quote from the repairers report: "Windows crashed with 3 different blue screen of death." I love their sense of humor Anyway, needless to say I'm most satisfied. My computer is definately Win. XD

What does Chemistry have to do with computing.
...And that computer's an overkill. You don't need such high specs for any game out in the market... Unless you're using Vista. But that'd be stupid.

Chemistry; the study of chemicals and all that jazz- H2O, O2 and all that, I made the reference because you said you were befuddled by combinations of numbers and letters...guess you didn't get it There is no such thing as overkill XD With these specs, I won't have to upgrade my computer hopefully for another three years. If games keep advancing as they are, in about five years, I may have to look at upgrading. Basically I wanted a machine that would last me a while And it's not a Dell, its a combination of different components/parts/whatever-you-wanna-call-em'. Although I guess the majority of it is ASUS.

My computer wins because I say it does.
It has cool stuff on it like that graphics card thing Atrus has, and it runs on Vista, which I like.
It won't stay charged though, so I hafta keep it plugged up.
Oh, and is 105 GB a lot?
