Looks good, I suggest you get 64-bit Vista though. Otherwise, it won't take full advantage of your 4 GB memory (and you'll have the option of expanding your memory later on).
Yeah, I know... but I can't find it eh...
Even the fucking pirates don't even know if the software's 32-bit or 64-bit when it clearly says so in the box!
I'll get 64-bit for my laptop - that's unquestioned.
Maybe I'll find a 64-bit upgrade for Jake's computer in the future.
Did you still keep your old desktop?
By the way, why so much RAM? Is it for the 64-bit of Vista in the future?
I see, you got the 8800 :) nasty good card
There's 4 GB of RAM (vista eh! ;P), but since it's only 32-bit -> only 3.3 GB registers.
64-bit for the future (upto 128 GB of RAM support!)
