So you're telling me to get a phone based on what you would use a phone for

gee thanks I'll be sure to include your recommendation in my decision

also who said anything about being better at it, a 3310 can text and call, can't it?

hence the "imo" in my original post...

And it's pretty ironic that you hit on me for saying what I would after you saying what you would....

Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me

Meh I really need to get a raid1 setup running so I don't have to do monthly backups onto 3 different disks....

I'm afraid I will be putting it of untill it's too late though, which means when my current main drive (samsung F1 1TB) dies....

Close enough to tech.

I bought a Aux input adapter for my car. So I can listen to my ipod without having to worry about those lame ipod radio things.

After a few minutes in BC2 on Africa Harbor. GTX 460 1GB, about 80 fps with all settings on maximum. For those that were still on the fence about buying a GTX 460 vs the Radeon offerings...

vs the radeon offerings? the 6870 consistently outperforms the 460 in benchmarks...

there's often only a few FPS difference, depending on the game, against the overclocked MSI/EVGA 460's...

Speaking of which, I had to play the game with everything on low, no AA or AF, and was only getting ~20 fps. Upgrade my processor. Get 50~60 fps with everything on high, 16xAA and AF

The 460 was good enough for me, just annoying that I had to spend more money to upgrade the cpu too.

I get about 60-80 fps according to the ASUS GamerOSD utility.

you musta had a really shitty processor if it was bottlenecking that much

my oc'd q6600 from 2007 was still pulling enough processing weight in almost all games

You've probably got a better processor. I just got q9550.
Also, I wasn't at an empty Arica Harbor either Was playing on a packed rush on Laguna something or other, the really long one in the jungle.
