I have just built myself a brand new MONSTER of a pc. It comes in a Shuttle case (about 6"x6"x12" ish) packing a Pentium 4 3000Mhz chip , 800mhz front system bus, 512Mb ram, dvd super drive thingy (burns all discs under the sun!), ATi Radeon 9600 AIW, (this next bit scares me...) a 200 gig harddrive. all that is topped off with wireless broadband and a 17" TFT monitor. it as a million and one doodahs on the front includeding firewire. yay! it does prod a rather large donkey! i think i will use this months challenge to test drive the raw POWER of it's cpu. i have tested the graphics card extensively! if you haven't got UT2004 yet, buy it NOW! mind you i can't seem to remember where i put my bryce 5 cd... John PS: i have finally consigned my floppy drive to the bin! who needs one when i have bootable USB 2! John leans back in his chair, chuffed to absolute bits! PPS: my budget didn't strech to a webcam so you can't see it yet!
