And its ALREADY outdated Grin

Idk personally I don't really see the preformance increase of a FX-60 vs a 4400+ x2 overclocked.

The performance increase is in the fact that it does not need to be overclocked and there is a difference in the architecture.

It doesn't matter.... when the newer dual processors hit the market (or better) I'll just upgrade.

I'm not made of money... but I do not have to worry about money either. I live on several hundred feet of continuous beach front which is several acres deep, on a private island residence which overlooks the skyline of Seattle, WA and Mt Rainer across the waters of Puget Sound.

... I can afford a few toys now and then Grin

Here is how you can have just about any system or component you want, when you want it...

1. Graduate High School
2. Graduate a 4 year University
3. Obtain a Masters Degree/Grad School
4. PHD in solid technology field, possibly follow-up with another degree in business, a business degree that will complement the PHD.

The first time someone tells you don’t need all that education, flip them the bird and tell them to duck-off.

Well I'm about halfway through step one, and step 2 is almost completely payed for. I even have a decent paying job at a tech company (staples).

So I guess now all I need is college, and a few certs, and I should be good to go.

BTW thats a georgeous shot. You are a very luckey man Nick, and I respect you.

My dual boot setup is quicker booting now on my 18 month old C: drive, it still, alas, takes an age to shut down.

..and if you want it to boot like a rocket, do the following:

1. Go to the:

C:\Windows\prefetch

...folder and delete everything in it

2. Copy the following exactly as it is posted here:

rundll32 advapi32,ProcessIdleTasks

and browse to: START - RUN, then paste it into the OPEN: box and click OK

Wait for about 30 seconds and then reboot the system.

NOTE: In order to make a system boot even faster, after applying the above instructions, ...use a disk defragenter such as Perfectdisk 7.0 or O&O Defrag and make sure the "Use Layout.ini" option is selected for boot defragmentation in the software.

Re you sure that wont damage the computer
