You got a Alien Ware  8o
Here you say you cannot afford a little wacom and then you go buy on of the phattest uber machines out there (not to mention pricest, 4 grands, holy nib)
I\'ll just look at the pics and make comp noise sound with my mouth and imagen I\'m running that beast  ;)

That machine should almost be able to run PlaneShift Hydlaa with all stupid waybreads hovering around the center with no lag, but only almost  :P

Thats one of those statements that the company should have off to the side of their website, youve seen em before.. like those little boxes that cycle through comments.   Hehe  Just seems like something I would have read in PCGamer or something lol.

Finally !!!!!! <- extra !\'s just to annoy Moogie ;)

         

I knew a PC brand a long time ago that was even cooler (more spec-wise) than Alienware, but I lost it\'s name and URL.

I\'ve finally found it :)

http://www.go-l.com/home/index.htm

Now this is going to be my system, erm... after winning the EuroMillions lottery/lotto/whatever they call it.

*starts making some impossible plans:

Ok, lets see... hmmmm... maybe a couple of these to have around the house and for the main desktop console maybe one of these for A/V and 3D design and another one for Linux, Dev and main storage
One of these for main gaming console
Ah, can\'t forget the living room !
er... and the bathrooms ! :P

Hmmm... then I\'ll just wait for the next-gen system :D



They used to sell these fantastic desktops, with embedded lcd screens on the case (now that\'s what I call looks&functionality put to good use, instead of silly little leds)
This lcd is used for status gfx&info etc, whatever one wants it to, I think.

It looks that they are now making a future new line of models, so the site has a lot of broken links now.


Oops... I forgot to make my euromillions bet this week :(
Oh well, I\'ll keep my shop list for next week, then !

EDIT: ok, I just had to put a pic on this post :P

I can\'t afford a tablet, on account of my parents won\'t buy me one. :P They only got the Alien because my dad wanted my last comp to replace his 4 year old one.

That doesn\'t matter though. If I can ever make enough material to open that cafepress.com shop I keep talking about, I\'ll spam the link everywhere in the hopes people will want to buy something. :D

That thing has one CPU which is seen as two ones, that\'s what Hyper Threading is about. ;)
Anyway the case is uglies thing I ever seen, even sun not makes such ugly
cases. :P I think there is sort of trend for weird computer cases anyway.
That\'s what I have recently bought: http://platyna.platinum.linux.pl/case/ultramedia02.jpg

It has a great cooling and special side panels to supress the horrible sound of
five huge fans...when you open it the sound is like on an airport...


Regards.

Platyna, \"Intel\'s\" HyperThreading is virtual dual-cpu\'s, yes, but dual-core is really 2 cpu\'s inside a chip.

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ is really dual-core (so really 2 cpu\'s sharing the same cache, I think) although I\'m not an AMD expert.

EDIT: Temporarily Disabling 2nd Core on AMD64 X2

Platyna, that case you linked to... you think that looks good? :S Man... crazy foreigners. :P

Edit: Kosh... thank you for posting that link! I needed a solution to some problems I\'ve been having with games and this looks like exactly what I need! :D
