How much was that roughly?

i live in norway and everythings twice the price here so what I payed is irrelevant. also this is soon a year ago i think and prices are probably half since then. u should get away very cheap. there must be some online copmutershop comparision sites in the US? try google.com/products

firtst i found:

Thanks very much man, looks quite good. Cheap too

"Crucial 2GB DDR2 667MHz PC2 5400 Desktop Memory" << Does that mean 2GB of Ram?

Do I have to buy an optional soundcard? Or does it supply one?

Sorry for sounding stupid again

also forgot to mention that I need something that support Firewire.

as i sayd, get an echo audiofire soundcard external, they start at 199USD if i dont remember wrong. those are firewire so get a motherboard with firewire. then u wont need an internal soundcard at all (tho most motherboard has inbuild soundcards, but their crap). yes 2GB means 2GB. someone else should talk about 667MHz and stuff. the CPU is like 100Mhz i think. dont know if it will match. you could email the shop and say what CPU u want and what equipment fits best (motherboard, RAM).

Is there a way of getting everything in the one package? I have no idea how to build a computer myself!
