search around, you'll find plenty of 2010 info including the 315hp GT, pricing, new colors, etc.

Oh I know I have seen some of the info around. Just thought that 20 min. clip would have produced a lot more than it did. I can't get to excited anyway. Got no money or plans for a new car in this economic enviroment.

Go for it Darrell. I wonder if those are off a shop car or some guy running 501 hp that didn't get that far down the road.

It's really easy. Heck, I had mine done in just a few hours, so did Scott and Ben. Of course, that's with having Dave at Brenspeed do the install.

I've been looking at new PCs, that can handle my HiDef camcorder. For a built system this seems like a pretty decent deal:

Wouldn't you want a burnable Blu-ray drive for the hidef camcorder? A regular DVD drive will only burn in 480p. The Blu-ray will burn 1080p.

on board video I dont like. Thats what may hurt the performance

The rig Im on now I built last year

Core 2 duo 2.66
Vista64
4g ram
nvidea 8800gt
Still a rock solid system, and plays games at high settings.
Just my son is getting into the games and we fight over the pc, lol

So I just ordered
core 2 duo 3.0ghz
4g ram
nvidea 9800GTX+
And a nice 22" widescreen lcd. And one for the gf too.
1TB harddrive, doubling the space I currently already have.

Both systems cost me about 1000. But thats everything from a case, psu, cpu, ram, hd, video card, motherboard.
and i bought vista last time
This time Im going to use a hacked version, to compensate for the extra cost of the monitor.

Today's funny -


A young man goes into the Job Center in Downtown Los Angeles, and sees a
card advertising for a Gynecologist's Assistant.

Interested, he goes to learn more; 'Can you give me some more details?' he
asks the clerk.

The clerk pulls up the file and says, 'The job entails getting the ladies ready
for the gynecologist. You have to help the women out of their underwear, lay
them down and carefully wash their private regions, then apply shaving foam
and gently shave off the hair, then rub in soothing oils so that they're ready
for the gynecologist's examination.

There's an annual salary of $65,000, but you're going to have to go to
Albuquerque New Mexico . That's about 620 miles from here.'

'Good grief, is that where the job is?'

'No sir --- that's where the end of the line is right now.

At some point yes....... but right now, I just want to be able to process and view the videos. My current system is a single processor that I bought from Dell like 6 years ago, and it can't even effectively view the videos, let alone edit/burn them.

But you're right, at some point I'll need a Blu-Ray burner. Heck I just ordered our first BR player earlier this week, along with a 46" 1080 LCD. Both from Samsung...... gonna move our 1 year old 40" 1080 Samsung into our bedroom. Still got my 55" mistsu in the basement.

That sounds cool...... hey question: is a core 2 duo the same thing as a "quad core" setup?

Nope, 2 cores, vs 4 cores. Most people will never use all 4 cores. Right now its an overkill.
