Posted 18 Feb 2006 by Craig Engbrecht Post: One guy out of you all... lol, thats cool... I am not only getting it for Numbers but for gaming too... Thanks for all the info... I know I could make it cheaper but I trust the parts these guys get and they also offer Really sweet warrentys... I am a Computer gamer/Nerd/Security Guard, so money isnt that bad, but I am not home much so when I want to game I want to really game, and when I am not using it someone should... Though thanks for all the info guys, and if any, Girls. Bye for now and have a good day. |

Posted 17 Feb 2006 by Craig Engbrecht Post: As I am only running a Pentium Centrino 1.7 Ghz, I am wondering why my computer is going to finish a 1,000,000 turn test in only 4 hrs? its going through the entire test, but they suggested that a 2 Ghz machine would take 10 hrs, what is differnt about my machine? BTW: its a Centrino 1.7 Ghz, With 1 Gb of ram and a 40 gb Hard drive... and a 533 mhz bus front, and it is a laptop, but I have no probs with overheating or frying so I am not worried about that. Thanks for any insight and have a good day. P.S. I am trying to sell my computer if anyone is interested... E-mail me back @ Big_Ostrich at Hotmail.com |
