Re: [OT] Help needed choosing new PC Spec.
get the X800 graphics card instead of the X300, i know your not into
gaming, but it's simply a better performing card and you never know
get xp [ro instead of xp home
get them to throw the modem away.
add a virus scanner subscription, there are lots of varying opinions
on which is the best, i use norton, but have used mcafee and enjoyed
it a couple of months ago.
Good spec machine, justa pitty it's not an amd64 :)
