The p4 2.26 was only $240 and the lowest that runs at 533 FSB so I go that one. I think thats a pretty reasonable price for a retail CPU.

Of course it doesnt . But you can use whatever ****ing app you want in its place. No one makes you Use IE, or Windows Media.

IF you are being ripped off then use Linux. Its free and you can install/uninstall any part of it. Windows XP includes utilities that save me money. Like managing Zip files, and pictures. Saves me 100 bucks right there. If you don't like it thats fine. Use something else. Taste is subjective anyway. But dont ***** about MS including too much. Cause some of us get tired of having to buy and install 100 apps after we get a new OS.

I liked RTCW. I think DOOM 3 will rock

Found a place with Samsung PC 1066 in stock at a reasonable price. Hope all works out well Too many reservations about the ABIT board. Im kinda sweet on ASUS for stability

Yeah thats way to high. Mine runs the same as Blades. with an Intel Stock cooler

Saw a review at Tom's hardware that showed the 845G keeping pace with the 850E, and the PC1066 arent cheap. Best I could find was $139 for 256 MB chips.

I dont like when everything looks clean. I like dirty spaceships.

Was way better then Diablo 2. This engine with Diablo 2 type story would. make a nice Diablo 3 I think It has 9 chapters.

Morrowind. Just raised the bar

You need Via 4 in 1 patches. And Disable ACPI if enabled.

I have an Audigy, and it sounds great. What are your specs?

Will depend on Intel. Nothing will hit mainstream until they do it

ONly reason I didnt go to the read me, is I read the news for the patch before I bought the game

COuld be the ram. Buy only namebrand high quality ram if y ou have a VIa based motherboard. Things you cannot go cheap on: 1. First Dates 2. Anniversaries 3. RAM

It's like politics. Instead of saying "Here is why our position is better" they say "Here is why their's is worse" Never ends.

****ing VIA. Buy a p4 bro. Save yourself the trouble

Here's the thing. We are complaining about how they treat other companies, when the other companies do the same ****ing thing when they have the chance, especially to the customer. Anyone remember ATT or AOL? Microsoft has always been fair on pricing and fair to me as a customer. They have provided the best tech support one could hope for and we blame them for being ****ing capitalists. SO they are opressive business people, so they mistreated SUN, AOL, Compaq? Who gives a rats ***. If those compaies don't like it they can use Linux. But obviously thier morals don't keep them from making profits with the very help of the company they so despise. Bottom line is they get mad for doing what they wish they could do, BE THE ONLY GAME IN TOWN. IN order to be the man, you gotta be THE MAN. **** all those companies, they are as greedy as MS, and would **** everyone else if they could. They're just mad that they can't

Quite well said.

Have you tried firmware updates for the DVD players?

Your a ****ing moron. Fill in those 4

Does anyone know on the new P4 chipsets if you can run the bus independently of the of the Chip. So I could run my 1.8 at 533 MHZ FSB?

But I can still use the same ram gotta get a new CPU then. THat's cool, I need one anyway

Audigy is a great card. go for it

Beat the game. Damn fine game. I still havent explored 60 percent of the map, and thats with over 100 hours played
