    Sony Vaio P4 3.06ghz, 512MB , 60GB, DVD/CDRW, 15.4" $1049.99 AR

    And by the way, Everywhere you look, even Sony's specs, it says that the RAM is only PC2100 (go see for yourself, BestBuy's site, everywhere it says that) But I went to Best Buy last night, and we opened them up (both the K33, and the one for $200 more- the K35 if I'm not mistaken)...

    athlon xp 1800+ , predict when will it drop to a $100 usd

    I got this crazy home video of speeding through Stockholm, Sweden. at dawn. they mounted cameras on the front, back, and side of the car and went racing through the city. it starts off by them getting pulled over right when they get to the City, then they speed away and go all over hell...
