Mephisto's the one to do the job when it comes to building computers. But hey any shmuck can do it with a little bit of guidance. Built a system for myself so if you're interested we can talk. I'm sure others can and will aid you more. For starters... Windows XP SP2 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116400 I say go for the service pack 2 version for the possibilty you have problems with your hard drives being recognized. Something about some issues with IDE and Sata connections, I could be wrong. Some one correct me please if I am. Windows Vista - If you're interested in trying their new OS and have no fears of any apps you like not working... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116485

An extra gig of memory could help your laptop, but also do the usual gauntlet of viral/malware checking, finding funky processes on the task manager. Heck if you haven't done so, try shutting off particular services/processes permenantly so long as you nor the lappy needs them. Make searches on processes you do not recognize to see if they're a threat and may be hogging your resources. http://www.blackviper.com/ Go to this site and try out the configs that are recommended there. NOTE* Do the changes at your discretion and before making any major changes, make a back up of your system in the case you need to roll back due to a bad config. Also the usual defragging/disk error checking wouldn't hurt. Good luck. edit: About how many browser windows/tabs do you utilize? I probably use around thirty or fourty with multiple windows for more organized tab usage...

Good memories, probably the ONLY game I've ever bought used though back then. Couldn't find it fresh. also.. I'll leave this here... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvB-lIcHHPQ

So hey seems Spore is already released in Australia. Thanks to the magic google-ball here's some links http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=926714&topic=45186323 http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/news/41293/Spore-Already-For-Sale-Down-Under Any Aussies here to confirm it..?

Congratulations on your revelation and contributing absolutely nothing to the thread~! @ GA What's your system specs?

I Knew it would, but it doesn't mean I have to stand for it should I? Besides considering when I'm doing work between my work place's website and sending info to various different branches... The firefox browser handy but fuck does it ever eat resources when I have to use a lot of tabs...

I have to agree as there are times where I would have a shit ton of tabs open at the same time and thanks to a meter, I would see about almost a gig of memory being used by Firefox. At first I was "woah wtf?", but then as soon as I killed it, the mem went back to nominal levels. I do enjoy setting up all related materials up on tabs and well... I can't feel all that comfy with my resources being hogged to a browser, if only incredibly better than IE...

I can't seem to find info on it as some of the sites are being slashdotted >:L oops spoke too soon... http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/09/fresh-take-on-browser.html Looks very promising, gonna try it out when I can.

Sums it up for me

Thanks I try. Also here some more though they are more like performances than actual march songs; nonetheless imo I felt they are awesome performances. Songs that a bunch of soldiers would entertain themselves when at base and resting up for an upcoming battle. Victory Day http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0CQB_tGn08&feature=related Smuglianka Moldavanka Ociy Cernye (Dark Eyes) This last one is way out there but wow Delilah - Red Army Choir & Leningrad Cowboys

$15 is not that bad really, especially when I saw the Painkiller "Special Edition" for $14.99 which was a gimped version upon further research. Thankfully I managed to replace my older painkiller discs (they were scratched up) with the Painkiller: Triple Dose for $19.99 As for the game, it was enjoyable with the movement being rather smooth and responsive; for me at least.

Yesterday a friend called me over to his place wanting to play a game in co-op mode. He wouldn't tell me what it was till I came over and had the controller in my hands. pretty sweet time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTifpb5WNC4

Been looking for an answer and found something on a basic google search, try it and see if it works for you. Goodluck

You living in a dorm or something or is the landlord providing Internet access with restrictions...? Never heard of an apartment having a download limit.

I can't believe I forgot Gradius... Also I second the Kingdom Hearts games. I also recommending at least trying out Devil May Cry 1 & 3.

Assuming the itunes tracks are mp4, just covert them into mp3. I've posted something about this a while back on a music players app thread... In any rate I prefer using Foobar2k, simple enough to play music on the fly for the most part on pc's but also rich enough to to customized... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foobar2000 Try it and see if it works for you.

And yet on the cartoons the Riddler's not some spastic puzzle prankster...

Very simple one outside of OCR for just some variety... Always liked ones that are very lively http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPHbn_hSP34

So I take it this had already been known for a good while but just haven't been posted..? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8IK8F68VzA Puts a new meaning to OM NOM NOM NOM

Always felt it had more to do with fans overly hyping them causing others to look more at flaws/limitations than the good side of the games. Example, the easily targeted Final Fantasy VII. A relatively good game yet with pig-disgusting fanboys & fangirls.

I have heard and listened to some but I just simply hate the term (anything-fusion) as the term seems ostentatious, inflated somewhat... Not a very good explanation but still, I just simply dislike the term "fusion anything" and vice versa when in comes to music...

This can not be emphasized enough

Or you know... neither opponents could have thrown one another down and settled with strength alone ala arm wrestling..?
