What happend to your signature with Maxwell's equations?
I was a victim of indentity theft.

Explain

I deleted it.

Should I put it back?

I liked it. It was original. Same goes for the guy who had (and maybe still has) Schrodinger's wave equation in his signature.

EDIT: and maybe a hooker

Thats what happens when you buy Dell?

For me it's more of a pain in the ass to get a new computer regardless of whether I build it or buying it prebuilt.

For $1800 you only got a 19" lcd? what a ripoff. I'd seriously consider returning it to Dell, you can do far better than that.

considering the e6600 is a little more than half that... throw in the7900GS+2GB of ram and you're at your $700.

but yes, why did you buy that? what exactly is maple? My computer is 5 years old. I'm finally replacing it w/ an imac. mainly because mine is dying, i want to use OSX, and i'm spoiling myself when I shouldn't be.

A 2.8 GHz P4. It's about 40 months old. I use it for web surfing, some gaming, Excel, Maple, etc.

About what I'm using. Had it since high school and it's still going strong.

Sounds like he has the upgrade bug. My other daily driver is an AXP 1700+ and it's fine for everything except F.E.A.R.

It was closer to $1500 if you take away the tax and the software.

That's like saying you took a 130MPH ace instead of a 135MPH ace.

Either way, you still got served. Sorry to break it to you.
