Hi, folks!

Hi.
On Black Friday, I picked up a HP-Compaq Presario C303NR notebook at Circuit City.
The 'book comes with a 6-cell battery which I've unofficially determined gives me only about 2 to 2.5 hours of runtime. NOT ACCEPTABLE. A 12-cell battery is definitely in order.
My options seem to be...

A friend of mine has a LOT of old P3/P3 Slot1 CPUs, and I thought I might give him a dual processor P3 board as a gift...at the top end of his pile, he has 2x Katmai 500s.
He likes to salvage old parts and put together systems from what he can find. :)

Hi!
Not sure exactly what category this belongs in, but a 'killer app' is software, so here goes.
I'm approaching the question as a gamer.
Thoughts while watching an intense rainstorm with thunder and lightning outside my window, right now. Yes I've got my PC on, probably not the...
I recently upgraded from an MSI K7T266Pro2-RU board to a Gigabyte 7N400 Pro. What a difference! :)
I have an XP 1800+ (DLT3C/JIUHB Tbred) that has been sitting around for months since I purchased it @ a computer show; I was never able to use it as the MSI wouldn't boot it (guess it doesn't...
