By the way, my Athlon system only cost me about $1000 with all awesome components. So my advice is to upgrade you computer for the next year as you can afford but use components you can use in your new setup. For example if you plan on upgradeing you memory get yourself some PC133. It will cost you maybe 15 bucks more but when you buy your new computer you can still use it. Just a thought. Hope I'm easy to understand. I know I can't spell. :)
