Hello

I thought I would just check in here and let you all know that I'm still alive and well... though I don't know if anyone even remembers me. Anyway, I'm a senior now and I'm starting to act my age. I haven't upgraded my computer for a long time now (though hopefully I will before college). I'm going ...

My brother is in college (sophomore at Berkeley) and he went the desktop route and likes it. His system is a low-end P4 with a GF2. It plays most of his games alright but it's no speed demon.

I'd go with the Gigabyte board sublimez mentioned. It's a bit expensive, especially if you opt for PC1066 RAM, but the features, stability, and performance warrant the cost. It's a far better value than the Asus i850E solutions.

I've been playing a bunch of this on B.net on the faster computer downstairs and I like it a lot. A couple of friends and I are ranked in 3 vs. 3 arranged teams, though it really isn't that hard to do.

Did you watch Selig's comments after the game? He was incredibly whiny and he had his arms crossed the entire time. I can't stand the guy and would love to see him go.

I saw the tape and what the officer did was pretty vicious. They say the kid is mildly retarded, and he looks pretty weak to top it off, so I don't think such force was necessary.

Got back yesterday and got it today, but I'm not going to bother playing it on my comp until I upgrade. My dad seems to like it a lot though.
