    The guy in the picture looks like he is thinking "Mmmmmmmm, motherboard."

    Any way to utilize networked computer's cpu power on local computer?

    Even if it was (and it is with distributed computing), with the current settings in your home network, you wouldn't see barely any performance increase. It might actually slow down your system in games.

    Will AMD surpass Intel's processor speeds?

    It basically boils down to how much you want to spend. Yes, Intel has a higher MhZ chip, but for the amount I spend extra on that Intel chip, I could save the cash, get a ripping 3d card and whoop all y'all in 3dmark scores! :)

    That sounds about right with the specs you listed.

    Is .30 dot pitch on LCD better then .30 on CRT?

    Playing games, LCDs aren't as good as CRTs. Otherwise, I prefer them. They are very easy on the eyes, but the refresh on games sucks.

    newegg rocks!

    I've heard good things about mwave. Also, if you live in the area (I do), you can always pick parts up at their place.

    Netgear vs Linksys, which NIC should I use???

    Linksys all the way. Why? I like the way they spell their name. Either one would be just fine.

    why don't they replace floppy disk drives with some sort of flash memory?

    It's all about legacy computers running in offices. The motto "If it's not broke, why fix it" comes to mind. For simple, small, data transfer 3.5 inch disks are fine for all intents and purposes.

    It's all CompUSA's fault! Sorry, I can't stand that place.

    Suggested Video Cards ~60$???

    I definitely agree with you. Or you could buck up and buy the Radeon 8500 LE for $87 and just freakin own.

    Does a Sound Card make THAT much of a difference?

    I'd say no since I have been using my onboard for the last year and have had no complaints.
