- Power supplies don't conform to the ATX standard
- Lack of AGP slots
- Proprietary floppy drive (in terms of size) (if you can explain that one away, I'll be amazed)
- Proprietary case...
There is no way to reliably open up the 4 closed pipelines in a X800 Pro (the VIVO is a different story though). However, buy your self a VGA Silencer and overclock your X800 Pro to amazing levels.
I still don't believe the cell processor hype from Sony. Either the performance is going to be lacking or they will have troubles producing chips in sufficient quantities. One of the two, the cell chip has an extremely tight schedule. Especially since its been delayed several times.
Back before HL2 was released I told everybody that if you bought a 9600 Pro, HL2 would look amazing on your computer. Guess I was right. :angel:
I upgraded from a 9600 Pro to a X800 Pro because I'm a hardware geek. Speaking of which I have the odd urge to upgrade something in my computer...
I've worked on more Dell's than you can shake a stick at. You name one part of a computer, and I can recall an instance of having a Dell propreitery part.

WoW is as much of a RPG as Diablo is. In fact, WoW feels like a spiritual successor to Diablo 2 (especially concerning talent trees and a few other things). If you like Diablo 2, you will like WoW.
Very early on with my Gnome Warlock, I did notice some slight role playing elements about my...
Here's my most recent story.
Race: Gnome
Level: 26
Class: Warlock
Realm: Non-PvP server (I can still PvP though :p)
Me and a fellow guildmate decided to get together and do the Blackfathom Deeps instance. Since he had some stuff to do, I went around and picked up all the quests for...
Opinion? Don't have enough information to make an informed decision. Personally, I believe this issue should have been dealt (regardless of the final answer) with at a much earlier time.

Tip: Having a parent co-sign on the loan will dramatically help your chances at getting a loan.
Realistically, your APR will be quite...
Screenshots will make you think that. In game, WoW looks beautiful imo. Watching a sunset along the zoram strand made my mouth drop it looked so amazing.
