^i agree with michael. and wtf at that internet bill. huh.gif



and @ illriginal, yeah i have no doubt that you could build a computer with more badass specs than mine for the same price. i get where you are coming from but eh, at the end of the day i don't really care if my specs are the best ever. most normal computer using people, we don't even want to mess with or spend the time building a computer. i wanna click order, get my computer, open it and use it, and it work without giving me problems. which is what my mac has been for the last few years to me. it's been worth every penny of 1500ish or whatever i paid for it.
