Ooooohh.. man :D *drools*

Well about noise, The OLD desktop (NEC pentium II)\'s fan made this weird sound when it first started, but anyway it was loud enough that you can hear it clearly 2 floors up from the room its in O_o

And my old laptop\'s hard disk was loud enough you could hear it VERY clearly across the room.

But MAN I wan an alienware for my dream computer.. but I\'m about $9700 short of the one I REALLY want lmao :D

For 32 bit applications, performance is pretty much the same (Windows XP x64, Promise and Reality). And driver support for XP64 is still an issue, so that might be why XP32 is installed.

yes yes i\'m quoting Moogie :p. ok a bag full of metal bits and wires and things says a lot. tell me what they look like and I might be able to tell you what they do and where they belong :D.

hey hey hey, I construct my PC\'s firmly, neatly with all wires packed. I bind all the wires to gether with anti-static wire. btw I absulutely hate Speggetti manier in my comps ;). and as for airflow I do it nice a good. I actually have this contraption that acts as a second inside fan that flows the hot air out the external fan :P

you dont really save loads... unless you are building one for like real basic needs.  its more about only buying what you want and having control over what goes into it knowing about what is in it adding new stuff blah blah, also i find it interesting just learinging about advances in technology or just the basics on how things work and all that other stuff.

OOOOooooh  Alienware has servers now!!!! We all gotta chip in 20 bucks and buy one for planeshift!
Theyre cheap too, although I\'m guessing not as hardcore as Sun\'s. But the most expensive Hivemind 2525 ($2000) has 12GB of memory and UP TO 2.4TB  of space!!!

Well yes its in US just because its more known. And real money...getting a bit patriotic are we? :D

We used to have the pound but we got rid of it, kinda good(want a President of Australia 8)) and bad(less money) :rolleyes:

lol i dont think you get what im saying. You said before that \"We all gotta chip in 20 bucks and buy one for planeshift! \". So what i said that if EVERYONE in the forum gave $20(US) then that would = 322 grand (US)  ;)

Not even Bill Gates comp would cost that much...or would it :tongue:
