Thanks striker, my son recons he has the best mum in town...Pity the guys run when i'm around but hey, thats life...
As for the pentium, umm, Noo, i dont mind the pentium at all..The architecture is fine and the idea of HT (hyper threading) is great..hardware multitasking, what a great concept.. Single core split in two, its what should have been around 20 years ago, but its here now so it is worth using..Just not really that important to me.. The advantage of the larger cache is good too but again not that much of an advantage here..
I have done a bit of research and have a friend that helped me catch up with the new technology..He loves his fast cpu's and is a windows user, so we had fun checking out what is about..opteron would be my favourite architecture, but could do with a bit of a speed up...
As for linux just for servers and no games, umm a lot of games are written on linux and ported across, and it is a great games machine if that is what you like, plus stable too...
Now a few funny's for you guys...
When you refer to Billy, well it does make me laugh, you see my sons name is Billy, not william or bill but Billy...
