The new system is on order...
« on: May 29, 2002, 01:00:15 PM »
I accedently sold the wife's computer and let her go without one for about 4 months now.  She finally snapped and told me to buy a new computer for myself and give her my old one.

Then I snapped...

Processor: Intel Pentium 4 Processor 2.53GHz 533MHz FSB w/512KB Cache
Motherboard: Intel D850EMV2 Motherboard w/1AGP/5PCI RDRAM
Memory: 512MB RDRAM PC-1066
HD: 120GB Western Digital UltraATA 7200RPM 8MB Cache
Power Supply: Enermax EG651P-VE 550 Watt Power Supply
Vid Card: NVIDIA GeForce4 Ti 4600 w/128MB (Dual Monitor)
Vid Cooling: KoolMaxx Video Cooling System
Sound Card: SoundBlaster Audigy 5.1 Gamer
CD/DVD: PlexCombo 20/10/40-12A CD-RW/DVD-ROM
Modem: US Robotics V.90 56k Internal Voice/Fax/Data (most likely to be removed)
NIC: Intel PRO/100 S Desktop Adapter
OS: XP Pro

I've never spent this much on a PC before.  I can hardly wait.

Snapped = "gee honey, i can hardly ever get on the computer any more since you sold mine and you're always on yours.  You should buy me a new one, don't you think?"


"Buy new bad-assed computer for self and give wife my old computer..."
"Yes dear, you do need a new computer!  I'm going to get right on that.  Aren't I a great husband! muhahahaha!"

I hate you, and I hope your new computer is stolen and stripped for parts!

PS...Holy toejame-on-a-stick!  Plextor has FINALLY produced a DVD-ROM drive; now if only they'd get their arses in gear and get the SCSI version out the door.

Hmmm... Does kinda sound like an Alienware.  I am sorry I recommended Alienware in the past.  Yesterday they refused to honor my ONSITE warranty and said I would have to send it to them for a mb replacement.  Only reason I bought from Alienware was ONSITE service-even paid for 3 year plan. The fight isn't over yet!  They will fix it ONSITE, take it back for a refund or meet my attorney.  Good luck with your new system.

They're still building it Funked... But that doesn't stop me from checking every 5 minutes on its status;)  I expect it in about 10 days.

I guess Alienware took me seriously because they are shipping my new mb and a local tech will be coming to my house to install it.
