Well, a quick check on pricewatch shows that entry-level 64-bit processors are actually not that much more.

So I can't think of a good reason laugh.gif

Question me this---------------------------

WHY would anyone spend alot of money on a 32 bit PC-------------------------------

When for like $1200 you could get a 64 bit AMD?? conf.gif

Yeah I've heard of it but never used it. Most people say VMware is much better though in terms of features.

Red, speaking of VM's, you know anything about how good Microsoft's Virtual PC works? I've seen it and it seems to runs linux and windows pretty well.

Yeah it's a pretty sweet program. Not free though, but I have the unlimited trial edition. Not sure how much it costs though, but if it's not too expensive it's actually a program that's worth paying for, like if it's under 100 bucks or whatever. It's probably more expensive then that though.

I'd have to make a review of it some time. I'm actually working on a router review right now. Finally I'll be releasing an article. laugh.gif I think I'll need like 5 of them released in a month to get the traffic back to where it used to be.

What is VMWare and is it free? So it lets you run more than one OS?

I should put 4GB in mine. Imagine how fun I could have with VMware that way. em320.gif Run like 20 Oses at once. LOL

Holy crap, 4 gigs of ram. I am guessing you are getting a 64 bit processor?

Red Squirrel - Aug-21-2005 server time
Wow, will cost you lot of money. Not sure if they make 500GB drives yet. The highest I've seen is 300, but you can always do a raid 5 with 3 250GB drives.

Edit: btw welcome aboard!

500GB Hard Drive

TWO XFX GeForce 6800 GT 256MB GHx Cards
