cuz the only form of broadband available (atm) in meh area is satallite, and thats 80 bux a month ?:mad:

1-way satellite, like i have, is very very good. It runs 100x better than 56k for mutliplayer games. Even though its not nearly as good as DSL, its still a huge jump from 56k. Its also $39 for one way (www.direcpc.com) get a 1-way WHITE dish. I get uploads at 2.4KB/sec (fuck) but 300+ KB/sec download (win)


 


thats my opinion, i cant get other broadband either

i suggest razer boomslang 1000 for mouse...ive used one forever, and i love it. (plus, if you call them and say it fucked up they send u another one w/o even checking)


 


what r u doing for monitor? never use a flatscreen, LCD sucks major schlong.


 


ummm...get a kewl case liek zaphod


 


cant go wrong with more ram...DEFINATLY use AMD, and you seriously need to get broadband...the machine will be obsolete w/o higher speed connexion, you'll need a good heatsink or fan or both...ummmmmmm get a good mic, a 7200 RPM harddrive, a fast cdrom...if you want to get REALLY in to it, i suggest looking into scuzzy ports and whatnot...but other than that, i think its been pretty much all covered.


 


oh, and send me ur old computer kthx.
