I guess I'll just have to have my son download it for me in advance, those huge downloads kill my monthly bandwidth usage...............:( My son DL's all my large files (Ubuntu, game patches and the like) and brings them out on the weekends. It's getting to the point that I'm going to have to...

I've got "some" patience, but as soon as I come across a few apps that won't run with it (Vista) that I like using on a regular basis, I'm afraid I'll upgrade back to XP. we'll see how it goes soon enough I guess.

Boy I really need to win the lottery if I want to keep up with everything new coming out................;) As it is I have to make house payments, pay taxes, and eat, so I guess new parts are going to have to take the back seat for a while.

LOL.....she does read the forums from time to time, I always have to play things on the safe side..................;)

When I do get it installed, it will mainly be used for gaming and a bit of OC'ing, Ubuntu will remain the primary OS for surfing the net and everyday tasks, I'm really getting to like it more and more the more I use it...........:)

When MS ships me my copy of Vista, I hope its one with SP1 already included, just to save me the download bandwidth.

About the only reason I would need/want one of the 45nm jobs is for OC'ing fun..............;) I really have no real need for more power/cores as it is. OC'ing is my main enjoyment in life (outside of the wife that is)...........;)
