^ ahw.. yea, that's what my friend told me. i thot i could pass up here. hahahaha. i guess i'll just going to reformat mine. thanks ate laine.

Why buy a PC? Just update what you got! cheaper in some ways. Upgrade Graphics Card. 1.5k/2k Upgrade Memory/Buy Memory. (4 drive recommended) 1.5k/2k/3k Add DVD Reader/writer. (Samsung litescribe) 3k/2.5k Add Blue ray reader. Wooo! 3k/2.5k Replace CPU battery. (CPU's has their own batteries,replace means longer lasting.) 1k/2k Upgrade your mother board! 2k/5k Just a suggestion though.

Hmhm.. Upgrading is a good idea.. But now, what I'm actually planning is to sell my laptop and buy a new one.. Because here in UK upgrading would have the same cost compared to buying.. And also, there are only few who upgrades laptops here.. You may ask me why I just buy laptop instead of PC.. Well, my answer.. I don't have permanent house.. I hope you get the idea. I'm so excited for Intel Core 2 Duo..

quad core i think is faster that core duo?? and quad core delivers four complete execution cores within a single processor..

[quote=`mizeL]^ thanks Eph. can u please explain to me what a quadro core means?? hmmmm so sorry im so dumb at this.. [/quote] I'll replace the term [i]quad-core[/i] to [i]multi-core[/i], since the latter was replaced to avoid confusion. Another definition: The term [b]multi-core[/b] has four CPUs working together on a single chip (in this case, Intel's Core Duo and AMD's Athlon X2), while [b]dual-core[/b] has two seperate CPUs working together. There are software programs that require high-end CPUs for performance. I'll give you an example of what I mean: There are 4 processes, and each process has its own purpose. And there are two kinds of CPUs, the multi-core and dual core. In a dual-core CPU, [b]only[/b] two running processes are allowed to be executed. But, what if you have four? Since each CPU core can handle a single process execution, the CPU can be slow if there are more data to be executed seperately. On the multi-core CPU, four running processes are executed simultaneously. Since there are two or more CPU cores embedded, and each can handle a single process, there is no signs of slowing down when handling large amounts of data.

You don't need to buy name brand to have a great computer I know there are computer companies there that make, put together, a similar computer for less than half the price of a sony why pay sony big money just to see their precious name on the case My gf just bought a desktop in manila with the quad core processor from AMD for less than half of what I would pay here, she even got 4 gigs of memory makes me jealous
