Herb..... Theres not much to say. You must not know to much about computers. lol.... That computer is good sized beast for running games.. You'll have optimum performance of ANY game on the market right now and for the next 3 years..

All i recommand you do is add some more ram.. At least 512.. If i had the computer, i would be running at least 1.5 gig on it... And also a bigger monitor... 19' would be nice...

So herb... Yes, It's a good computer..

I just ordered my computer and I took 512 extra MB RAM cause the salesman said I should take that...
With all software: Windows XP Home, Office, Norton Antivirus 2005, ...
And with the 19" tft monitor I paid €1300...
I think this is a good price for it...

What do you guys think?

Grtz,

The Herb

you didnt know that the 'e' looking symbol was euro. but your so well learn ed
Click to expand...
yes but I have no use for the euro . I trade usd and gbp (and cad) . without delving into politics I see the euro (and the union) as an attempt to bolster the collective economies of the member nations -- not against the usd as is portrayed -- but against the gbp (which represents much more of an economic threat due to locality). while the eu are valued greater than the usd the collective power of the us economy (and its reseliancy) is something to be marveled. furthermore, knowing (or not) a symbol for a currency does not effect one's ability to converse about such economies and financial infrastructures


in either case, this is getting off topic
