I didn't get the cpu listed on the newegg list because I got the 'Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 Processor (3GHZ-4mb cache)' for the same price that newegg had the 2.66 for - not to mention they didn't even have it to begin with. dual 3ghz, 4gb ram, 3- 10k 16mb cache drives, 8800GTX w/ 768 DDR3 and a sweet 24 inch 6ms 1920x1200 widescreen lcd... not to mention the details... should be good for awhile. This is my first venture into gaming on a LCD but with all the reviews I really couldn't pass it up. I love my 21 inch .22 dot CRT but I don't think it'll ever die so I can replace it. I want to thank everyone for their help and time in assisting me to pick the right stuff. -- Regards, joeuser - Still looking for the 'any' key...

I could not test it on my system as there is nothing here that will open a wpd file. But it did the conversion...and not sure where the output loaded. The conversion to Word worked fine and the output opened up Word. http://www.nuance.com/pdfconverter/professional/features.asp#create I think the standard edition will do the trick for half the price! http://www.nuance.com/pdfconverter/standard/ -- Regards, joeuser - Still looking for the 'any' key...

2 Kingston HyperX 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model KHX8500D2K2/2G - $412.98 I must have missed that you were intending on running 4G of memory...this should work fine, just be aware that you may end up having to loosen your timings or decrease frequency from the rating to run 4 sticks simultaneously (stable). Four memory sticks places a lot more load on the memory controller and frequently will reduce the maximum speed you can run. It really depends on how nicely all 4 sticks play together. Either way, make sure you spend some quality time with Memtest86+ when getting it all set up and tuned. :) Greg

RE: [H] FF default text ?
In the address bar type about:config Then filter with the text font. Then double click the font.size.x.x you want to modify. I think its font.size.variable.x-unicode but I might be wrong so play around with it. I hope that helps.

Yeah I understand XP cant do 4GB? I thought there was a reg hack for that or something? I suppose I'll just run the 2GB and save the rest. -- Regards, joeuser - Still looking for the 'any' key...
