438.xx for 8GB Ram, 6x core 3.3Ghz, 500MB, cdrom, upgraded cooling and power (like $40 total).  and I can upgrade the video card if I want at some point.   with NHL  and Halo i wont need another ganme.

 

ill download Max Payne 3 at some point, though.

 

that Louie show isn't bad.

 

i was reading something yesterday on longform, I guess comedians talk about the business of comedy as pre-Louie and, now, post-Louie

 

I hear the 2nd season is excellent.  first isn't bad. that Gervais guy is pretty funn,y even if it is annoying at points.
