My New Computer Thingy
Well, since my piece of crap (well, not really, I know many with worse O_o) can't support the ATI Radeon 9600 Pro that I purchased the other day, I'm going to get mine improved (not upgraded, since I've got all the little things, but not the big things). I'll post what I've currently got and what I'm going to upgrade, as well as where I'm getting it and how much it costs. This basically serves as a homebase for Berendt to buy stuff or something, since my parents don't want me ordering stuff online at home. Well, here we are!

| Motherboard | UWave32 or something | ASUS A7N8X | Moah | $115 |
| Processor | AMD Athlon 1 Ghz | AMD Athlon XP 2500+ | Moah | $100 |
| RAM | 128MB SDRAM | 512MB DDR | NanoSys or something downtown, I guess | $50 |
