Always there with the answers Aaron. Well...there's really no one in town I'd trust to build a computer except an old friend...and I haven't seen her in years. The comp we have now is actually a local-made computer...I suspect this is why it blows so hard. But then again it's also 6 or 7 years old (still running Win 98). I suppose in some respects it's held up well...even considering the power supply has been replaced twice, the fan once, and a CD burner installed in it (my first time doing internal computer work). Right now it will only run for about 15 minutes before it locks up with the blue screen 'o death (something about a problem with something like the VXD or some other bullshit). Basically she wants cable internet (which is good since 10/100 ethernet cards are pretty much standard these days), email, and probably some sort of Office package (which you can usually get for free when buying a PC...at least I did...I just wish I could find it). Do all Win XP computers sold now come with the SP2 upgrade? I just know she's never going to check for spyware or any of that shit. All I know is that I'm not going back to CompUSA. That's where I got my current PC (Compaq 6350) and the guy that tried to help us was such a douche. I inquired about a deal I'd seen in one of their flyers the Sunday before (we went on a Sunday) and his response was "well...last week was last week". I then socked him in the colon and killed his children. Well...not really, but I told him to fuck off and picked out my own stuff. Right here CompUSA.
