Tech Help: Buying a new Desktop
 
#24
Wiredgeek Wrote:I've rebuilt three dells out of the retired wreckage of five dells in the last five days, so I'm getting a kick out of this thread. (My new 'Garage Computer' is a sweet little Optiplex 210 - lapped the CPU and heatsink, upgraded the thermal goop, got 2gb of DDR in it, still the same 'ol P4 3.0, up to 500gb of disk and a weird low-profile ATI vidya card, but I'm pushing 1600x1200 to three monitors and am just as clappy as a ham).
For some reason, I read DDR as Dance Dance Revolution.
Portal is actually something of an exception for me. A freind of mine sat me down in front of his xbox a while back, and 'forced' me to play it. I did just get Civ 4 yesterday though. It's really a step up from Civ 3, once you get used to the differences. (One of the hidden benifits of the lag strategy is getting all the expansion packs right off the bat, usually in a bundle Smile )
