| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Im getting a little outdated and about ready to start the upgrade process... MSI Mobo P4 2.4ghz Gig RAMBUS (is the shizzle btw) Sound Blaster Audigey 2 pro ATI Radeon X850XT Platinum Adaptec SCSI controller External Icy Dock SCSI Ultra 320 Raid Cage (currently housing 3 ultra 120 SCSI drives, the u320 hdds are expensive) Gigaworks 6.1 Saitek Eclipse Keyboard and X52 Flight Control System I also have a whole bunch of other peripherals and what not... However since my upgrading will be a huge undertaking I think I am just going to buy a new P4 chip since they have come down in price dramatically and get another 6 months to a year out of my current rig... I also have another P4/Rambus/MSI geared machine running my entertainment system, whith a ATI all in wonder card

| Primus Pilus | my cousin thinks its the best, but i know better. He got an alienware laptop for 2500 dollars and while it was powerful several years ago, it's lagging behind in tech now and he's getting another one. My specs are: CPU: AMD 3200+ RAM: 4x256 1 gig ddr Graphics: Nvidia 6600gt 128 PCI express HD: 160 gig @ 7200 rpm I have a generic on board sound card, but it's OK.

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | Just FYI Alienware = DELL You are better off building you own computer, guess what all the individual parts have warranties....It really isn’t that hard to assemble one provided you have done your research and made sure everything was compatible (i.e. ram works with CPU works with mobo), the hard part (sometimes) is getting all the software to work...If you buy right you will be able to easily update and not have to worry about any proprietary BS.... Plus you can get twice the machine for the same price as a generic off the shelf PC... |

| Primus Pilus | A custom pc is slightly cheaper than off the shelf because you're only buying parts for the computer and not the monitor and accesories. With good parts, it shouldn't be any cheaper than a regular comp, but then it's better quality. I think i'll get a custom one next time since they throw too much unnecessary crap software on any ready to go pc. |
