My dear old mother just called from California. Her cpu took a dump.

Thanks!!

www.dell.com. (http://www.dell.com.) Might have to wait until December for shipping, but they are insanely cheap.

I didn't want to wait until December, so I sunk $1500 into a new screaming hot system...should be ready today. Woohoo!

You seriously need to ask in a poker forum where to buy a computer? $500 computers aren't hard to find at all if you actually tried ... Ebay, Dell, Gateway, ANY local computer shop or electronics store like Best Buy or Circuit City. You don't get a Sunday newspaper with sales fliers or watch TV?
