Hellbent Posted April 9, 2004 I was wondering if anyone knew where you could get some alfalpha. I need to start priming my digestion for the new diet I am going to start going on hopefully in a few months.... If anyone knows where to get alfalpha, that'd be swell if they could email me. Why am I posting this in Doom 3? Cause I never posted in here before. Ermac just sent me a bunch of pics and got me all excited for the game. Now I just have to decide if I am going to upgrade my PC. I'm broke tho :( What machines are people going to be running doom 3 on? 0 Share this post Link to post

Hellbent Posted April 10, 2004 heh, no one got the real reason for this post. But I guess that's prolly a good thing, because if you had... I would have gotten banned.

Holering Posted April 11, 2004 Compaq MV700 17" Monitor (Omfg this thing still works and it's over 6 years old. It came with our first computer (my Mom's actually but she didn't care that we used it)which was a Compaq model 5242 400 Mhz Computer which also came with a printer (think it was an IJ900 or something). This thing doesn't just work but it works awesome. Brightness-contrast are still just as strong as it was before at highest resolution 1280X1024 @ 60HZ (doesn't do 75HZ like todays monitors), colors are just as good as todays monitors (even better than some. Some of 'em have too strong of whites or blacks and the image doesn't look natural or it looks washed out just like the ways alot of LCD monitors suffer. This old thing doesn't suffer from any of that) and it's the dirtiest thing in my room. I wish I could show you guys a picture of it. This monitor is the shit! Cooler Master Aero 7+ ASB-V73 Athlon XP 3200 (stock) Corsair TWINX1024-3200LLPT Memory Asus A7N8X Deluxe V2.0 Sound Blaster Live! (using hacked audigy 2 drivers. YAY! :p they really work good too) Logitech Z680 speakers (I was lucky to have my room as the perfect setup for them. But I was not lucky to avoid pissing my parents off.) Zalman ZM80C-HP + Zalman ZM-OP1 80MM Slim Fan (this thing rules and with the fan on lowest setting it cools it down so much. Gets extremely hot when fan is off. I burned my thumb like literally when I was testing it out-making sure it was sucking in heat. It definately was sucking in heat...) ATI Radeon 9700 Pro Seagate 80 GB HD (I gave a 10 GB seagate thats from 98 to my friend and it's still goin'. My friend also has a 2 gb one that's even older from 97 that he's still using along with the one I gave him. Seagate rules!) Lite-On 48/16 CD/DVD Drive XJ-HD166S Lite-On 48/24/48/16 CDRW/CD/DVD Drive LTC48161H fUnc sUrface 1030 SU-BK-BK Mouse Pad (has to be the best mouse pad in the world...) Logitech MX300 930762-0403 Mouse (has to be the best mouse in the world. Well as far as gaming goes anyways. No matter how fast I move it it will not tweak out and go all over the place like almost all other optical mouses do. I took the weight out of it too (a metal thing inside to make it heavier) and it's very light weight even with the weight in there. It's also ambidextrous so if your right or left handed you can use it either way. It's really comfortable too and it fits in my hand just perfect.) Folded sock mouse-wrist pad (don't have money to buy a real wrist pad right now. I need a wrist pad cause I can't play as good without one plus it's bad for your wrist anyways. Who knows maybe a folded sock works better than the real thing.) Microsoft office Keyboard (I don't like this keyboard. When I get a job I'm definately gonna get the logitech one I saw at newegg) I got laid off at my previous job at the beginning of January as a dishwaser-assistant cook at a Family Mexican Restaurant. I'm not even Mexican and they practically never hire any people outside of there family for work at there restaurant. Of course my Stepdad who is a close friend of theirs and Mexican did help me get a job there. If it wasn't for him I probly wouldn't of had my computer or any good games and that's practically all I care about besides my Mom-Family. It was fun working there too while at the same time it was hard work. All the money I've made from there I've blown on games and computer, but mostly on my computer (bought all my computer parts at Newegg). I would've boughten an xp 2500 and overclocked it up to 3200 but I'm kinda anal about running everything stock. I'm so pissed now cause I don't have a job to make any money. Plus I don't have a job to keep me sociable and away from depression-lazyness. Been job hunting ever since (haven't put that much effort into it though) and no luck. How did the rest of you get your parts and where? 0 Share this post Link to post

EDIT: If you were offended by my comparison of cars vs. computers in the compensation regard. . . consider how the irony that I drive a sports car effects the offensive factor of this. If you were offended, I'm sorry, it was meant to be a joke. Lord FlatHead said:If you kids want to play rude, go do it in Blogs or something. I didn't did I? 0 Share this post Link to post
