To help combat 7 FPS in MC (thats right, I get 7 FPS for about half the time I am in the core) I ordered this last night:
XPS 400 Pentium® D Processor 830 with Dual Core Technology (3GHz, 800FSB), Genuine Windows® XP Professional Memory 2GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 533MHz- 4DIMMs
20 inch UltraSharp™ 2005FPW Widescreen Digital Flat Panel
Video Cards 256MB PCI Express™ x16 (DVI/VGA/TV-out) ATI Radeon X600 SE HyperMemory
I think you could call that a bit of an improvement over a 1.4 GHz Pentium M, 1GB RAM, and an integrated video card all on a laptop with a 14 inch screen. I cant wait for it to get here!

Ya know, I am a slut. You should see my apartment. The couch, coffee table, diner table, and chairs are all my roommates. But then there is MY enteraintment center, 36 inch tv, 400 disc DVD, gamecube, xbox, ps2, and tivo. Then my room is even worse, my bed is just a matress on the floor, no box spring or anything. But I have my PSP, DS bed side, then a 21 inch tv, laptop, 250GB external HD, wireless router, and soon to be uber computer on my desk. And I think tonite I am going to get one of those nice office chairs for in there!
Gadget Slut FTW!

Heh, I pwn you all. This is being posted on my 50" plasma TV that I have my computer hooked up to. With music being played through a JVC 5.1 surround sound system.

I want to know what the 20in monitor has to do with your 7 FPS... I think you went overboard, mister!
... now let's see that 50in plasma, Offensive... heheh.
I play on a CRT 17", with a 3.2 GHz AMD processor, 1 GB of RAM, and crappy 13Gig/60Gig (slow) hard drives. I have a Sapphire 9600 Video Card, 256 MB. It does the job...
