lol "dream computer" eh? that is definetely a computer geek thing to do. but don't worry i'm a geek too...and proud of it!

back in '95 my dream comp was a Pentium 133 MHz with 32MB of RAM, 2 GB hard drive, and a 28.8 modem. boy, how things have changed! nowadays i haven't really been keeping track but i'd have to say my dream comp would be similiar to ravdude's.

The best commercial graphics card, ICANT REMEMBER THE NAME (ARGHH), was like well good. It had 1gig of video ram and 32 Voodoo 3 chips or something like that and it also had the function where you could linnk 2 of them together for twice the power!! It also happened to cost about $100,000! or somethng like that
