Who cares about harddrive space...I haven't even filled half of it yet.

[uhhsam]

i care about hard drive space.... if i was rich i'd buy 10 of the new 400gb hard drives and daisy chain them in firewire enclosures...

*drool*

my next purchase for my PC will probably be a soundblaster audigy 2 platinum pro (phew) sound card. then i'm not sure if it counts as an addition to a PC rig, but i'd probably get a little synth/sampler/something with midi output to make some tunes

[Thegaminggamer]

No laptops aren't. Mobility is.

[Thegaminggamer]

All I know is that my laptop is running a Pentium 4 2.8 Ghz, and some type of ATI Radeon Graphics, oh and like 60GB HD. I bought this model because I travel a lot, and I needed a DVD burner.
