"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

[color=66ff00]I got my RAM today as well, now my machine is up and running woot!

Got me a 2500 Barton XP, NF7 mobo, 512megs of 2700 DDR and one of those nifty Aero 7 CPU coolers.
And it's all housed in a very cool, purple chieftec dragon case. :)

It's only got a Geforce 2 MX right now so you definetly one upped me on the GFX card. ;)

Anyhow, congrats and celebrations all around. :nod:

It's especially important if he's using the IGP (which, judging from the description, I think he is.) as the IGP gets a nice performance boost from using dual channel RAM, particularly if it's PC3200 but even PC2700 RAM should be enough to get some decent results (compared with other integrated video solutions, naturally).
