My dad just orderd it today for me. It will be here on the 14 estimated =). the downs are I have to install all the programs =(, only files can be sent to the new computer =(. Well how long can this run games on high for?

Also is it good?

2 mismatches in the thing though. 1. I did not get blue tooth, 2. i'm getting different speakers.

You know he was joking, right?

You won't have any problems running stuff for a good long while with that rig.

I expect around 2050 you'll be SOL. Might as well give it up now.
I'll PM you my address, just send it to me when it arrives.

But seriously, thats like the dream machine I cannot afford. Enjoy it, you'll love the balls out of it. (assuming its a man)

Bet you paid an arm and a leg for that though. Its ok, I bought a gateway for my first computer. Next one you should build yourself for a lot less $$$$.
You sound like a younger guy, so you may want to consider Microsoft Office Student Edition if you plan to do lots of school work with it. I have used Works, as well as Open Office (which is actually really good), but when you are writing lots of papers and tweaking them on multiple computers, sometimes it is not worth the hassle and worth going with Word.
You will have a really good time on that rig though. Make sure you pick up a Mic so you can use VOIP ingame.
PS, you will crap your pants the first time you load up PR and have everything on HIGH compared to barley running LOW. I know I spent a lot of time just looking around at all the things I had never seen before.
