aye thankfully I think I`ve hit the sweet pointgot the current PC 2 years ago, a custom jobbie - 2.8GHz PIV, 1GB RAM, ~200GB hard disk, CD / DVD writer, and a decent* graphics card

*whatever that means these days

at homeI alternate between my P2 600 with 200and something ram, a nothing graphics card and a shit hot sound card, and my brand new work laptop (1.6g P4, gig of ram etc etc).
