The guy got lots of talent and seems to have his head pretty well settled so I predict a non-points finish around 15th, ahead of his team mate

Well the most demanding apps will be games, since although I will also be using Visual Studio and photoshop, those require a lot less power.

Im curious about better & cheaper micros than the Q8200, what would you recommend and why?

Thanks for the replies so far

EDIT: I plan to use XP-32 until we can get hold of a non-test version of Windows 7, but I havent bothered to check recommended specs since I assume they are well below the posted specs

Terminator Salvation was good mindless popcorn action, but on the other hand, Transformers 2 was TOTALLY awful...story is bad, almost all robots are unrecognizable (and im a transformers fan!), movie is WAY too long...3/10.

Best of it was Megan Fox and the R8 - was it an autobot or decepticon, wtf, totally confusing battle scenes.

From the movies I had time to watch in the last few weeks, I'd recommend:

Of mice and men
Alan Parker: The Wall (more a docummentary and only for Pink Floyd fans)

Classic spree!

North by northwest, Rebecca, The man who knew too much, Torn curtain (this last I liked slightly less), all from Hitchcock
Sunset Blvd (Billy Wider)

Into the wild? Went to the cinema to watch it as it sounded promising (Penn), and we had the whole theater for us 4.

Very nice soundtrack by Eddie Vedder, beautiful footage of wild America, utter nonsense reasons from the main character.

4/10
