I bought a new machine for home, and it arrived today. The new “toy” is an Athlon 2.6GHz, with 1GB RAM, a 80GB HD, and a GeForce 128MB 8x videocard. Now I will have some fun.
Amusingly enough, all main components in this new machine are 4 times more powerful than the ones in the old machine. My old machine served me well, but I was beginning to feel it lacking in some areas — gaming, especially. Anyway, who can resist the chance of buying a new machine?
