All my things are ordered, now it will just take the computer mindedness of my brother to throw it all together. The day of reckoning is near.......

Only thing I see here is you'll want to go to 2GB of RAM as soon as you can. Everything else looks tits! You should love it.

Ithica. Yep, without two gigs you'll still see some stutters. You need two gigs now for the game. Also, 1 gig is basically the minimum you really want to run Windows XP with. Anything else, on a machine that does serious work, you'll find one gig is the minimum for windows as well. Windows XP use to run fine with 512 megs, but the business machines I've seen lately require one gig if you do any real work with it.
