man it choked for awhile just starting up and opening up a browser....I knew I hadn't used firefox on it in awhile but it was still firefox version 6.0.1 it said lolol, updated it to the newest 24 and its fast now,chrome kept crashing on the damn thing. Only a single core 1.99ghz >_>

thinking about getting a new one to chill in bed with though...I get tired of sitting in my chair on the desktop
