thanks,
the last computer i had, my friend and i built.
yeah it was nice to build my own, but i've had one problem after another with it, the latest: hard drive busted.
this time i'm going for a more secure computer, one i really don't have to worry about.
thanks for the info on the graphics card, chances are that's the one i'll get.
also, should i be worried about processor speed, my old one was 2.0 ghz and this one is looking to be about 2.33 (biggest worry is about future games and programs ie. can it handle vista and games that are or will be coming out)
