cool sci i hope you get it you work hard ans deserve something new and expensive<br><br> lates<br> hottie <p></p><i></i>

if you go with the first one, upgrade the video card if it's a GeForce 4 MX (GF4MX does not play well in UT2k3). of course, you can dump the 56k modem since you're on broadband. if you have money left over, add more RAM. I didn't see a monitor for the first one, but I guess you can use the one you have now.<br><br>if you get the second one, you would want to get rid of Windows ME and upgrade to Windows 2000 or Windows XP.<br><br>what's your price range?<br><br>you probably don't need to rush into getting a new computer just yet; I feel like UT2k3 isn't quite ready for prime time (a big part being the Redeemer Arena mod isn't quite there yet [ though I'm looking into writing the mod myself, but don't count on it happening yet, with my work getting more hectic every day now, and I'm in the middle of reading a few books ] ) ..<br><br>- clemmentine<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://crushersplace.tzo.com/chatterbox_images/CustomSignatures/clemmentine.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br> <p></p><i></i>

It be end next week I only need $25 to go. <p></p><i></i>

Hi Sci,<br><br>Those look like pretty good deals. You deserve a new one -- I know you've been jonesing for a new rig for some time now.<br><br>I think you can get an even better deal. Since you are not a tinkerer/overclocker, I feel comfortable saying that you should check out Dell's website. Free shipping, no tax, well-built rigs, and very very competitive pricing. You can customize everything yourself.<br><br>Also, if you don't want to add XP right away because it's so expensive, I'm sure there are some people here who might send you a backup copy to test (the Pimp of Warez).<br><br>If you need help trying to put together an inexpensive rig, I'm sure Hook or Pimp or I can help you.<br><br>Mahatma <p></p><i></i>

The Gateway Model 500S, tower case, 2.4 P4, 512 meg RAM, 80 gig Hdd, 3.5" floppy, their standard offering of 16x/48x DVD ROM and 48x24x48x CD-RW, Windows XP Home Edition, Microsoft Works 2003 Suite, Norton Anti Virus 90 day trial, NVidia 128 Meg Ti 4200, standard mouse/keyboard, Soundblaster Audigy, no speakers, integrated ethernet card, and 1 year parts and labour warranty = $1409. Free shipping. + Some free stuff too.<br><br>You could drop the price a bit by deleting one of the optical drives, but it's such a sweet setup and deal the way it is. (The soundcard is a necessity to me.)<br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Scify</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->, I know your friend doesn't like Dell's, but I'm sure you could configure a 4550 similarly to this Gateway, for around the same money. According to Consumers Union, both Dell and Gateway are tied in terms of customer service and satisfaction. The Dell's scored higher in reliability however.<br><br>I strongly recommend one or the other of these brands. You cannot go wrong that way. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Couldn't resist going to have a look:<br><br>Dell 4550: 2.4 P4, 512 meg RAM, no monitor, 60 gig drive, 128 meg Radeon 9700 TX, floppy drive, Windows XP Home, Wordperfect, 2 button scroll mouse, standard keyboard, integrated ethernet card, soundblaster live 5.1, HK 206 speakers, 16X DVD, Free 40x10x40x CD-RW, McAfee 90 day trial, 1 year at home parts and labour warranty, a whole bunch of free software, (jukebox, digital photo, income tax) = $1118 - $50 online discount = $1068 . Sweeeeeet!! That price includes $39 for a Belkin Surge station powerstrip, which may be a mandatory purchase. If you can figure out how to delete it, that's $1029.
