AT LAST I am back! new PC
Well after going back to bolivia, staying there for a month, coming back to the US and waiting for my PC to come, I now have 11k posts to read.
After that has been done, Ill be the regular that I used to be (hopefully).
Here are some pics of my new comp =D This one will last 3 years (hopefully) at least.
God I've missed JW and my baby Regina (my car).
Better get to work, 11k posts wont be fast...

I sort of regret getting the dumb Alienware. Ordered it from my country cuz I thought doing so ment me having it really fast. If I'd known that they would take so long to ship, I would have built it myself and probably get the pieces and put it up faster (and save a few bucks).

very nice, they seem to love the "high perfomance" formula . I almost expected to see "Floppy Drive: High Perfomance 3.5" 1.44 MB Floppy Disk Drive - Black".

now go get to your posting.

LOL yeah the darn tower doesnt fit completely on my furniture. There is a closing lid that I had to unscrew cuz the head sticks out. I rather it be big though cuz its more organized inside. I can reach things easier, and heat doesnt accumulate as easily inside.
About the posting, Im on my way with a lot of tabs opened in my browser lol. Putting those RAM into test.

Yeah, the mouse is great. I didnt install the software, so the button that switches windows and the wheel button that drags pages left-right are not available. I wanted a smaller monitor, but this was the smallest monitor that had 1920x1200 (1600x1200 but in wide screen). I really need this resolution to fit more of an image while I photoshop stuff.
