Im lookin into gettin a new computer, and I think I may have found the one. http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/ config.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&oc=DE310WKND&s=dhs
It has everything I wanted to find and more plus its $500. Less than I was looking to spend on a new one actually. Do you guys think I should get it? or anyone else seen good deals on a desktop?

Bah, I would recommend building your own system in that case. Since any decent gaming system from Dell or any other manufactor runs for quite a bit. Or using something like http://ibuypower.com/mall/lobby.htm or http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/ If you don't want to build your own.

Dude thats more like 20cents hehe..im not into knowing about computer's but once i play this one game for money and become a millionair ima get 100Gigabites of ram and the best of everything else you can stick into a computer and have it work.
*pictures himself in a mansion with a big wall with a computer screen the size of the wall and to the side of the screen has a humungus Tower and cordless ball-less mouse and a cordless keyboard* all for gaming WOOT there is this computer game i cant find and even if i did i wouldent have enough ram right now, it's called 'Mu Online' it's super laggy but with 100Gig's of ram woot i prolly be the fastest one in the game. |

100Gb of ram would not do you any good these days. Perhaps by the time your a rich it might do you some good. I think 2 will get you where you are going, no-matter where you are going.
P.S. Your post was very hard to understand, you might want to proof read your posts to make sure that your point is clear. |

You could put 100 gig's of ram into a 286 and you wouldnt be the fastest in the world, chances are you'd be in the bottom 5%. But anyway for Oblivion i reckon you'd need at least a 6600 or 6800 for a good gaming experience or the ati equivalent(probably a X800). Also a gig of ram would help |

Not to sound like a complete noob with computers(which I am). But if I were to get a computer from CyperPC would I be able to download Windows XP or something of that sort? Or be able to download Firefox and browse the web the same as I do with my current Dell? Like not only play games on it, be able to browse the web, download aim, msn....etc?

You can install Windows XP, if you bought it(http://froogle.google.com/ froogle?q=Windows+XP+Home+Edition&hl=en&hs=wEV&lr=&client=fi refox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&sa=N&tab=ff&sa=X&oi=f roogle&ct=title). You could also have them install it for you. All Windows XP machines work the same. The reason why you would want to buy it from Ibuypower or Cyber is because you don't feel like putting together a PC(which is rather easy), and you want it to be able to run new Games.

I think 286s had a maximum of about 4 megabytes of RAM (that usually varies from motherboard to motherboard though). |
