Title: 2007: The Year Of The New Computer
Post by: Charles LePage @ ComicList on February 10, 2007, 06:08:34 AM
We are getting a new computer this year, and this is what I'm considering:

XPS 410:
Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E6600 (4MB L2 Cache,2.4GHz,1066 FSB)
Genuine Windows Vista™ Home Premium
2GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz - 2 DIMMs
320GB Serial ATA 3Gb/s Hard Drive (7200RPM) w/DataBurst Cache™
Single Drive: 16X CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW) w/double layer write capability
20 inch UltraSharp™ 2007WFP Widescreen Digital Flat Panel
256MB nVidia GeForce 7900 GS
Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio

I'll be installing the X-Fi XtremeMusic card out of my present computer to replace the onboard sound.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

My kid's computer was built from scratch.  I thought I'd give my wife a break and get us a brand new one that is more or less guaranteed to work out of the box.  I can always tinker with the other computer.  :)
