I have never been a PC game player. So I don't have a need for the best of the
best PC's. I have a PS3 when I get urge to blow sh.. Err.. crap up.

That's what counts. I still have my first PC that was(is) a 4.77Mhz 8088 with
20M MFM drive. I ran one of the first versions of Wildcat on it. It had a
whopping 512K of ram. The current PC here will do 32 Gigs.
