This is sort of like the "Whats in your box?" topic. What shit would you most like to add to your box to make it better (ie- a full 1G MHz processor, bigass hard drive, what vid card, intellimouse, 21" inch flat panel monitor, speakers with subwoofer, anything you can think of, etc.)

I can thihk of a lot of stuff I would like to have in my box but you have to be reasonable. The next thing I'm going to get is a 19 inch monitor. Hopefully the 'rents buy it for me to take to college.

Im sick and tired of my semi-new compaq presario 5441 freezing up on me, and im somewhat dissapointed with the graphics im getting out of Diablo2, although that could well be the fault of blizzard. More likely though i think its that i have some shitty stock graphics card. I want to get a Geforce 2GTS ( i think thats it) but i hear theres a new one comming out, thats better. along with a new vid card i want more memory, the amount of memory left on this thing is terrible. add to that, it didnt have very much memory to begin with. Id like a new monitor, because this little monitor ive got sucks. also im going to go on some sort of shooting spree with a long range-whoopage-device from the top of some building if i dont get rid of this 56k BS and get me a cable hookup. im calling my phone company tommmorow but i doubt they will be able to suply me with service. my house is kind of far out there, but not too far in the boonies. id take cable, or dsl, or idsl, shit ill take whatever i can get over 56k.

well yes, i know that, but theoretically you should get that. still though theres multitasking. you could theoretically devote one processor to one program, and another processor to something else. so collectivly it is a 3ghz machine, assuming you decide to run lots of stuff at once. my friend has dual 450s, and a cool prog that shows each processors usage in real time. i dont think ive ever seen them in full usage though. but theres also multithreaded programs...multithreading and no T&L is about the same as singlethreaded and T&L in q3a. so it does make a very signifigant difference.
