I\'m so happy so I had to share this with you good people.

Anyhoo I upgraded from a 800Mhz Thunderbird to a 1,2Ghz Tbird,I added a 40 gb 7200rpm IBM (30 wasn\'t enough,too much prOn)

And I have yet to get me a 512 mb ram stick to add to my lonely 256mb stick.

Spent a whole day backing up most of the data *cough*prOn*couch*,just incase something went wrong,thank god (myself

j/k) it didn\'t.

I haven\'t posted in 2 whole days,and I was getting withdrawal symptoms.

Anyhoo,I am happy.

I need to get a new computer. Mine\'s so old, it\'s not even fast enough to stream...so that\'s a waste of my T1...

Ahhh nO, you finally did it! We used to be the 800Mhz bros but I guess you\'re too good for me now.

I just got a job with a construction co. with a nice payrate. I\'ll prolly upgrade in the not-so-distant future to the same exact specs you got (1.2 Ghz Tbird). But first I\'m gonna deck out my basement with a Toshiba HDTV, Denon receiver, and Paradigm Reference Studios all around. I don\'t spend as much time on the \'puter as I used to, and the Gamecube with 480p output is coming out so... I guess this means it\'s best if we break up.

Wait a min....

Tell us how those gamse run on your new setup!!

Stick with OS 8/9 man. The only reason you should upgrade is if you absolutely need the eyecandy. I used X for a while and I just switched back, now with Yellow Dog Linux running on a seperate partition.

We just got OS 9,2 on our macs at home,it\'s a heck of alot more stable than 9,1.

I can\'t wait till 10,1,then finally/hopefully OS X will be competly usable
