Why don't you get us that damn photo and we'll be the judge of that
Anyways folks, I got an extra gig of ram for the my laptop (~1.5gb now) and I didn't expect the difference it has made. I have gone from running half-life 2 on the lowest settings possible to running it on the highest settings possible at 800x600 res with a nice and smooth frame rate. AND I can minimize the game and do things SEAMLESSLY! Before my laptop was pretty slow after running hl2 (imagine during half-life 2) and now.. its made a big difference.

-That is correct my friend. I've had the mouse for about a year now; no problems yet.
-Actually 6.1, but I have it set to mix the rear center speaker because no game uses 6.1, so it's set to 5.1 with six speakers.
My specs:
-AMD Athlon 64 dual core 4800+ model processor @ 2.64 GHz (ovrclkd from 2.4 GHz)
-2 GB RAM
-Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS @ 640 MB & 7800 GT @ 256 MB
-one (1) Hitachi HDD 250 GB SATA; one Western Digital HDD 250 GB IDE; and an external enclosure for an internal Hitachi HDD 250 GB SATA
-Creative SB X-Fi 7.1 capable Soundcard
-one 20.1" Samsung LCD (1600x1200, model 204B); two 22" Samsung LCDs(1680x1050, model 225BW)
It took me 2 years to buy the parts as I gained the money for them, buying the case first, then the mobo, and so on... Since then (once I got the main parts in to where I could actually use it), I upgraded it with a soundcard, and and new processor (that last dual core from AMD for my 939 socket type [they don't make it any more]). And then lastly, I bought the two 22" widescreen Samsung LCDs together, having to replace one after about 6 months. All-in-all, I've spent almost five grand on it, but it's only worth three now, I imagine
