Great system. I'm still working on my p4 512 meg of ram which is slow. Thoughts on a trade?

Nice system.

Vista - Mmm....
Norton - Sucks IMO

Pictures? !

Congrats on your new system. It's always joyous to have something electronic and new to play with, especially this time of year.

Should have gone for a Q660 and overclocked it You can easily get up to 3ghz without having to tinker

Instead of building my current PC, I bought an HP as well. I am quite impressed with it. It is a very nice little machine and came with software that I would have had to purchase separately if I built my own like Vista. My specs are similar to above but I have a AMD 5000+ CPU, 3 GB of RAM and an 8600GT video card. All in all, it cost me about $800.

Very nice system indeed. I'm sure you'll love it even more when it arrives.
