Yeah, I'm not looking for updates. I can run WoW at full settings and Half Life 2 at full as well. Other than that, I'm waiting for WoW to issue a new engine or UT3 to become palatable again.

What more do you need with those 2 games ;)

Granted I don't play wow, but I get my RPG kick from other things (Go DS/GBA!).

:P Your computer specs really don't do a whole lot regarding lag. That's the time it takes info to get from you, to the server, and back to you. My lag's about ~150ms on average for Warcraft, ~400 when on campus' pipes.

Why do you have an unused violin, praytell? If I had the money for any instrument, I'd try to learn it, :P

That, or scare the deer with it.

I pelt deer with paintballs when they wander into the yard. Sure, a marker is "technically" a firearm, but "technically" I'm defending my property from an onslaught of Bambis.

dual 2.8 ghz
gig and half of Ram
Gforce 7600 GT
CD and DVD drive
and $800 of software extras

about $2200

I got mine from Gateway, best computer ive had so far, Hp, = Hell package, and Dell = disposable.

For a decent PC, look for one in about the $1800-$2600 range depending on what you use if for, gaming you would want on the lower end.

And fastchapter thats just wrong, i mean come on, their deer, you open the door and they run for it.

Not these deer. We're on the edge of town, but still in a dense neighborhood. Deer wander in and kick down our birdfeeders. If I'm going to wake up each morning and have to pick up broken shards of plastic from the poo-piles, I'm going to pepper some deer yellow.

I have a sliding patio door. They'll look up at me when I'm creeping it open, but they only bolt once I start firing, :3
