my new comp!!

Last time I bought RAM was for the desktop I just put together. I believe it was only around $75 for 512MB so 128MB of DDR must be very cheap. I see the the place I buy all my parts say they have 128MB DDR for $39 on their web site. But they also say 512MB like what I bought is now $159 so prices must have went back up. Check out Rocky Mountain RAM or some of those other budget RAM places...

yes the prices were wuite low for a while then went back up. I believe that icould have gotten 128 MB SDRAM for $18. I might look into buying 256 (at least) of DDR RAM, i'll have to scrounge up some money though (its tough being a cheap bastard these days)

Well, I think being a cheap bastard is a whole lot better than being a dumb bastard, and we all know who falls into that category...

yes we all know who is cheap

hello everyone!  i am so glad all of you are here.

i am new to linux, but WOO HOO!

about xbill... man that is not exactly quake, it is naturally slow and jerky.

about ram... if yuo dig for it you can get 512 of sdram for less than 20 bucks on ebay... that's where all mine came from at prices from 8-12 bucks per 256, and 19.75 for a 512.  sure, they're evil, but ebay is a point where we can all expliot the mass suck culture microshaft's minions have introduced.

hey here's a wierd one:
randomly while runing tux racer, with the geforce 2, i bomb out hardcore to either the desktop or out of xwindows to a fresh login.

this is nothing compared to the errors windows gives me.  all my boards check out fine in other systems.
