That's much better than mine, but not quite top-of-the-line. Here is what I have at the moment:
Athlon TB 1400 (running at 1475) processor
512mb 266mhz (PC2100) ddr ram
2 IBM 75gb ata/100 7200rpm hard drives
Geforce3 standard (running at 250/575 mhz
52x cd drive
16/10/40 cd-rw drive
NEC FE2111 21" monitor
lots of fans

(12 total, 5 six-inch 7500rpm "delta" type)
This setup is getting somewhat outdated now, but it still works reasonably well for my needs. At the end of the year I will just get whatever the latest stuff is that $3500 can buy.

Still have not decided whether to get a desktop or a laptop though; I never really liked laptops much, as they are slower and pricier and I don't usually care for portability, but it seems that I may need one for college, and there appear to some on the market now that suit my needs well. Also, why the heck is 10 pounds considered "extremely heavy?"

It seems that the people who review these things have never hauled around 21" monitors...

The worlds ****iest CD Drive, a 4 speed from 1995 - w00tness!
you serious? How do you get FS2 movies to run on that?
