My boss still has a gig of RAM (really good RAM, though) and he can run two windows of WoW accross two monitors without any glitches.

Well, I'm thinking in the future.  Who knows when I might need to run four copies of doom3, seven world of warcrafts while browing the web and downloading stuff...

And have your processor explode?  Have fun. :)

Besides, I can already run WoW and a bunch of other stuff with 1 GB, no need to have more ATM.

I'm going to again question your reasoning behind buying a 3.8 when a 3.6 is/was several hundred dollars cheaper.  Are you rich or something?  Is your sense of logic broken? :P

Besides, AMD owns! :P

I'm rich, in a sense.  I don't have a large house,  I don't drive a limo to school; I bike, but I have all the material things I have ever wanted.  I save my money, and get what I want, and I do it very well, compared to my other siblings.

Yeah, AMD is pretty awesome.

You're a pretty disciplined person if you don't want more.  Basically, I don't believe you. :P

I save my money too, I just don't spend it very much.  I have $1400 in my account.

What's the main difference between Intel Celeron, and Intel Pentium 4?

Read this article, it's really good (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celeron).

Basically, the Celeron processor was designed to be an affordable, yet good processor.  It's not meant for heavy use (such as gaming), but works great for the average day-to-day user.

Fuck fuck fuck. :(

I wish I had a pentium 4, but the laptop was $175 so, eh?
