Today a Silverline Courier rang at my doorbell bringing a large cartboard box containing some goodies:
 Sorry about the bragging bit, but I'm quite satisfied, having been working on a Celeron 1.3 Ghz-machine for 4 years now... I didn't go for a supreme l33t configuration, but still I'm quite content and ready for another year of DOS games  |

I feel better now. With my second child about to be born and the finances starting to get tied down for awhile..I was mad that I wouldnt be able to build myself a new computer for awhile. But now that I see your new computer is the same as my old one..I feel better :P Cept I have a Radeon 9800XT 256mb..and 2 smaller HD's that about equal yours.. :P
Anyways, I didn't mean that as a "rain on your parade" type thing. Congrats on the new PC..should be plenty of power for awhile :P

As a student I don't have much money at all :P
I could have spent all my dough on one of those dual-core athlons or on a massive € 400 videocard, but decided to restrain myself. Ik hope AMD sticks to the 939 socket for awhile, so I can do a CPU-upgrade in a year or so  Oh, and good luck with your second. When's it gonna be born? |

How much did all that stuff cost you, and from where? I'm quite interested in buying a new PC and that one looks just right.
