I don't game, which will explain the video card choice.

heh, you could do a lot worse.

[Post Pictures and Specifications of your computer here!]

eh, i still like my g5 ^_^

good question. although logitechs are worth what you pay for them, i'd imagine a true audiophile would go for klipsch or something.

@ fan pointing into case

and @ g7 mouse and klipsch 2.1

(unfortunately i settled for 2nd best: logitech z2300 2.1 speakers. but i love 'em.)

one of these days i'll get around to taking pics of my system.

but it probably won't be until i get moved in at the university.

oh, and @ kingston ram. i use corsair, which i would say is one of the best as well.

yep, those two would be my best guess (psu, then motherboard).

hello, I'm Garrett. I'm a web developer, and I use XPize.

[Newbie questions- Tweaking XPize install]

"alternative" refers to the color of selected items that is different.

I was hoping that the user preferences from one login (mine) could be copied into whatever profile Windows uses for the login screen, so that the near-black screen background and window decorations would be used. I seem to remember in the old days under Win 98 whatever preferences you set for the "default" user would be used for logon.

I guess XP is not so easy to modify in this way?

actually, TweakUI for XP can do just that.
