Guys I do believe it's time to up grade this tired old machine. This 1.5 pentium just can't handle much of anything in todays world. So any suggestions would be appreciated greatly. Looking for a MB and CPU.. and throw in a vid card too. thanks guys.

Hi Duckie,
Hardware Dept would be best place for this but, in the meantime;

Can you give us an idea of your budget and what you'll be using it for (what's your most often used software and operating system)?

Just a word to the wise - If you want to get XP instead of Vista Evil or Very Mad on your new machine you need to act quickly. Uncle Bill is cutting off XP to most Manufacturers soon. I think Dell is saying June 14 is the last day they will allow XP machines to be ordered. I'm not sure what other vendors are saying.
