1. What's that old saying?

"You could probably launch the space shuttle with that computer."

I wonder how long my old computer is going to be around? It's 5 years old. I've got a 2.0 gig processor, 512 MB of ram, 128 MB video card, 40 gig hard drive. I don't use it for much more than the internet. I built it myself and it was a pretty nice computer at the time.

5. I was planning on building one until I came across this deal.

I couldn't build one this nice for the price. I actually paid less than $600 for it!

2. XP Pro? Vista Ultimate? Linux?

3. Vista Home Premium, unfortunately.

But at least I know that Vista isn't going to slow this bad boy down much! :)

4. You will be suprised

With that setup you can double your speed with an XP Pro install. Vista is as slow as a dog even with good specs.
