Well, first of all, let me say "just in time" too. I work on my laptop 8 hours a day right now. And sometimes more. But 9-5, I use it at work. Today I'm on one of the desktops that's usually taken (we have a small staff, but I don't like to get in the way, so I usually take my notebook and just work wherever I can - with only 3 available desktops and an average staff of 5 on duty, it's not very conducive when I'm the web designer that NEEDS a computer at work! ).
Anyways - the notebook I was using (4.5 years old, Celeron 1.2Ghz {of fury, I might add!}) bit the dust on Friday. THURSDAY I had just placed my order for a new notebook.
Getting a Turion 64 w/ an ATi X700 and a gig of RAM.
Now I'm just kind of thinking to myself... why?
You know what I've been playing lately. Doom Collector's Edition and Wing Commander the Kilrathi Saga. Just seems like a bit overkill. But, I guess in time I will get back to some more modern games - but right now I'm on this classics binge, and I feel like I'm wasting some money. ~~~... oh well.
Just thought I'd share. Maybe we should start a system specs thread - for all of your systems (got a dedicated rig for classic gaming, etc... tell us!?). Might be fun.
