I used to run a 650AMD, 2x6gb HD, 256mb sdr, tnt2m64 not too long ago... and my work box is a dual p3/500 :) I have computers all over the place, just becuase they're ancient doesn't take away from their usefulness.

When I want to play old games for example I have a P/120 waiting for me.

Also have two or three 233's doing some work for me.

I used to have 5 486's networked but no need for those anymore.

Misc parts everywhere, never know when I might need to use them, even though I always buy replacements even if one of those is available. Its not lack of trust in the equipment, its lack of usefulness for 1980's hardware.

I dont know... :/

And processors aren't hard to keep up on - 'cept you need to learn new geeky acronyms such as PNI, HT, DCDDR, MS, ....MS, QBM, SATA, GODIE and other nice things.

Prescott will have "HTT Marketing Technology," as thats all it really is - a marketing ploy.

And its not "manufacturers including it," it is something completely new AMD has introduced. Normally it follows Intel and plays it safe, but now they're betting the company on this... and its a really good idea. It has its drawbacks, but its advantages well outweigh them.

Trust me... the rabbit hole goes alot deeper than that...

try 128MB memory. Nothing else matters then. Your computer will suck no matter what.

I run an old gamer with 32mb RAM, thats plenty enough for what it does ;)

Running XP on a newer machine, though, that may be an issue. Try Gentoo... my friends box has about 15mb ram in use at boot, so hey, wanna talk about some efficient memory management? :)
