;D Sorry for laughing, but I have this funny thought in my head. My brother-in-law uses his huuuuuge widescreen TV as well, and I find myself imagining him moving all his furniture outside so he's got enough room to move the mouse about ;D

OK, here's my setup, just for the sake of writing something down (since I've got nothing else better to do with my time).

 

HP Pavillion a340n desktop PC with:

-Intel® Pentium® 4 2.60GHz CPU with Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel 865 chipset family), and yes, it's dual-core (well, virtual dual core)

-1.0GB of PC2700 DDR RAM (256MB DDR x 4)

-ATI Radeon® X1600 Pro 512MB DDR2 AGP GPU

-120GB Ultra DMA Hard Drive

-HP Pavillion mx703 17" CRT monitor (has about 7475h :ohmy: of ON time)

-SB X-Fi XtremeMusic PCI sound card

-JLMS XJ-HD1665 DVD-ROM

-Sony CD-RW CRX215E5 CD writer

-Pair of Cyber Acoustics speakers with a (get this) tiny 2.5" subwoofer :D (sounds pretty good tho 8) )

-Windows XP® Home Edition (SP2)

 

That about sums it up. I'm quite content with this setup, albeit a few things I wish I had, but have not the funds to fianance my hunger ;) .

 

[EDIT]

Oh yeah, this whole thing cost me upwards of about $2500 CDN (it'll be about 3 yrs. old next Feb.).

not my current computer, but what i will buy next:

-conroe e6300 dual core (hopefully can oc it to 3ghz)

-asus p5b sli mobo (i always trust asus)

-enermax liberty 500watt sli (had before, should had kept it, best psu in the market)

-crucial technology pc5300 3-3-3-12 (the one i heard can oc to 800mhz at 4-4-4-12)

-2 x wd sata2 160gb hd (for raid1 backup purpose)

 

all this and some accessories will cost up to one grand total. keeping my old 7900gt to use with the setup. hopefully will handle all the new gen games even without a dx10 card and vista.

 

truthfully i love nforce chipset and amd combo. so i really like to get the amd am2 cpus. but seeing the performance of the conroe, its inevitable if i want best performance for money.

That's quite the setup bud :D ! And for someone who (like myself) nows nuthin 'bout how a PC works. Well, I know a little about things work and that, but I don't know how to make my own apps (I'd say I'm a very, very, VERY casual programmer. Nuthin I could make a living off of tho. Just enough for me to get the most of my comp.
