    Get off your hinneys and upgrade your computer.

    I saved for a while and bam, got pretty much a new computer. Mom wouldn't let me buy one prebuilt so I had to build one. Man was it cheaper.

    2.4GHz HT
    1024mb pc3200
    Cheiftec case (the one everyone has)
    Some fans, thermal stuff, floppy and some otehr generic stuff i needed like lights and the bio-hazard sticker that I haven't put on yet.

    Now I can surf AO twice as fast!!

        I know, I did learn alot though. I'm acctually not rich though, AO has this weird view that I am but I pay for my own stuff. Are you kidding my mom wouldn't give me a penny to get a new computer.

        Ohh well it was kinda fun except for the part that it didn't turn on .

        I probably save $500 doing it myself though. That's nearly the cost of the parts I bought.

          similar to mine...
          P4 2.4C
          asus P4C800 delux
          1gig (2x 512mb) PC3200 dual channel
          the vidcard is just a g4 ti4200 but sometime before i go to college i'll be getting an ati all in wonder 9800, and i turned off HT cause i cant play halo online if its on. the only thing i hate about building your own comp is that after you upgrade theres always something better that you can always get.

                    Man, all that it needs now is a wing and it is complete!

                    j/k, looks groovy.

                            Yea well I was like..."IT HERE ALREADY?" and they were like "well not exactly"

                            I got a real nice monitor here and the MS Office Pro software and a nice iChat Camera but no CPU... I was not expecting it till late August cause these things are brand new and they said 8 weeks. But then they ship me some stuff and I get my hopes up.

                              was the case expensive? I really like the ability to view the internals.....
