Prozak_Boy You most definatly need to upgrade to a newer computer, but don't fret, now is a good time. If I were you I would go to www.cyberpowerpc.com and customize an AMD PC. Two reasons. 1. In my experienace Cyberpower PC has good build quality and low prices. Reason 2, AMD has rock bottom processor prices. Happy shopping.

This is exactly what everyone said when XP came out, "why bother, I am perfectly happy with direct x 7, we don't need direct x 8." and then when direct x 9 came out, the same line where spoken. If you don't like to progress, than stay with xp and direct x 9. in 12 months my vista rig will be smoking all direct x 9, *cough" Crysis.
