That's a shame, it'll be outdated by then!

My computer was shipped from Balkwin Park, California, on 3/6 (yesterday) at 9:31PM via UPS Ground. Currently it is "In Transit" (the UPS tracking number is 18 characters long!), and it's 38.00lb. Shipping only cost $9.00, it was originally $59, but I got $50 off (it was a special which ended a week before I ordered, but they gave it to me anyway). Scheduled delivery is 3/13 (Thursday), the day after my birthday! Maybe it'll arrive ON my birthday

Yay, the parts for my computer came... I've finally been able to upgrade.

-MSI KT4VL (same as Warren's)
-Athlon Thoroughbred 1700+ (overclocked to 166x9.5)
-Samsung PC2700 DDR (it's only rated for CAS2.5, but works perfectly with CAS2 at 180 MHz)
-Thermalright SK-6+
-UNGODLY LOUD Delta 60mm fan (7200 rpm vaccuum cleaner)

And of course, there's my
-Asus Geforce 2 GTS (didn't upgrade that, at least not yet)

Images (as if you'd care)

Notice the kickass MSI case badge as well as my homemade fan speed switch, which is able to undervolt the fans to a reasonable 7v. Actually, at that voltage, the noise is very quite bearable. Definitely not a vaccuum cleaner.

Notice the red PCB color typical to MSI boards, as well as the huge-ass Socket 7 HSF attached to my Geforce 2. Yes, those are rubber bands holding it to the card.

Gotta love that MSI 8X AGP gold thingy, just looks so cool.
