Yes, PC's are always outdated within a year, and almost always obsolete within 3-4 years.. At least my old Pentium 3 machine lasted me 3 years before dying.. heh.

Luckily, am not on to the most demanding / heavy kind of games, so mine ex 850 celeron worked quite long for me..until it said "bollocks". Well, now having 1,47 GHz amd which will do just fine with 512 MB of RAM. But one can't ever have enough HD space thou...;)
Just now, waiting for MoO III going gold...inpatiently.

Yipee! I just put the order in for the parts for my new pc.
Intel Pentium 4 2.4Ghz 533Mhz RETAIL
500Watt ATX Power Supply
SAMSUNG 512MB DDR Ram 400MHZ FSB
VIA P4PB Ultra Mainboard
some specs:
8x AGP graphics port
400mhz DDR memory
Hyper Threading Technology
2 ATA 133 EIDE controllers
Promise ATA 133 RAID controller w/2 EIDE RAID connectors.
I already have a ATI Radeon 8500 4x AGP card, so I will finally have a pc that can really push my video card! I should be the envy of all my friends within 10 days or so.

Rambus is nice, but DDR 400 benchmarks about the same as it does, for less money. The motherboard I have seems to be smoking the competition, here is a good review:

I?ve got an ASUS motherboard that specs out just about the same, Nice feature's like easy bios over clocking capability?s for Ram\FSB\processor\voltage.+ lots of other features. The quality is key.
Ps. what are you planning on doing with this rig launch a space shuttle?

Turned 30 last month and gotta say I thought it would be a big deal but by now I don't care about age. Maybe I'll care when I'm 40 or maybe it helps that I'm a guy but 30 ain't too damn bad.

Yeah VCDjunkie, posting your age works as a great intro, don't it? I once saw a site where people put a quick blurb about the weather at the end of their posts. Added a friendly touch to all the people.
Cold and snowy in Williamsburg VA, USA.

At Christmas time, it was about -30 degrees Celsius here in Hämeenlinna, Finland, and my friend told me today, that at his parent's place, up north, in Kuhmo, it was at something like -40 degrees... Heh.
Now it's a bit warmer, though.

Twilite: Pretty correct, just picture the igloos with 10MBps VDSL connections and every eskimo with Nokia cellphone and you're there :-) As you probably know, this site is Finnish :-)

You saying this site is in Finnish made me think of a few wisecracks about how you write english so well ;) but I would like to keep my account so I'll refrain from voicing any of em. As it is I think I just assured I'll never be more than a newbie.
