CLEO!

[Boogie]

I didnt mean for this to turn into a mac vs PC debate but for what its worth....

I spend zero hours a week checking for trojans and the like. Why?

AVG Antivirus
Windows Service Pack 2.0

pretty much anything that can install anything on my machine is guarded against with SP 2.0. Autoupdates for me too.

AVG virus removes anything that's a problem. Autoupdates then runs while I sleep.

So overall my pc is tip top due to automation. when i'm sleeping its still working.

Not that I dislike a mac, we had them in high school. No hard drives though.

now if i could turn one of those into an aquarium i'd own a mac again.

great work machines. shit awful for gaming.

BUT, These days to get a 'basic' pc that doesnt do a lot you can really build it for dirt cheap. I dont know about 125 bucks but I put together

2.4 gig
1gig of ram
windows XP pro
Nvidia TI4600 Geforce 4

all the bells and whistles.....

for about 600 3 years ago. to build that same machine now would be 300 or so.

The windows XP disk was a comp tho, a gift from a friend. I'll use it in the next PC i build for even more savings.
