Hey hey hey I resent that. Rich ppl are not necessarily brats

rich kids are always brats
rich wives are usually brats
rich men are usually not brats. although if its inheritance money, they apply under teh "kids" section

generally my qualification is this: if you work for the cash, you deserve the cash. but if you dont work for the money (children of rich people) you certainly do not deserve the money.

I spend too much time with people who have nothing but money flowing down from their parents. the greatest part about it is that these are always the bleeding heart people.
I call it AlGoreism, pulling an Al-Gore, or just an AlGory move on their part.

lets put it this way; you're at dangerously high risk.

Ehm you might want to consider buying your pc in another country. Germany for example. I'm quite shure you could buy an outstanding PC for $2000 / $2500.

Hahaha no....

I am still using my dual core pc I built last October... Nvidia's 7800GT is an excellent card that still runs most games on High/Ultra!

I beat Vegas already

true.
but it doesn't save you from being high risk. (dont try to prove a nonbinding statement wrong, it'll fail miserably)

I second that. no fun trying to derail a derailed arguement.

It won't if you take the upgrade option (instead of a fresh, full install). I strongly recommend against the upgrade option, however, as it's been problematic here.

That holds true for most of the past Windows operating systems being upgraded to a new one.



I run the game fine on my relatively dated P4 2.0 GHz, 1GB RAM, 7600 AGP. In addition, I will get Windows Vista when the operating system is more stable, warrants a pressing need for it, and when the funds are actually available to build a new rig to deal with the extra requirements of it.
