Buy a computer from me!

kyutika@aol.com - Me
edgecru5h3r@aol.com - my brother, who is the one REALLY selling them.

1Ghz Athlon DDR systems with 64MB video and 512MB RAM, DVD, and CDRW going for under $800!

Does anyone think the words "Iron Monkey" sounds like a name for a vibrator rather than a movie?

Oh, and back on the original topic - if you want something BESIDES the system type Katarhyne mentioned in her original post, I believe they take special requests. No guarantees that the end price of THAT will be under $800, though.

(By March I should have enough for a damn good computer, $1600... made by guess who.)

You know I'm going to relentlessly spam this board until SOMEONE from here (and not from #doom, I have several prospects there) expresses serious interest in having me build a computer for them. >_<

You gon'a buy a computer from me? Pwease?

What can I get for, say, ninety-three bucks and change? Seriously, though, $800 seems like a fantastic price for the system you describe. Wonder how you can afford to sell at that price.

/ReX visualizes Kat & brother, flicking whips in a sweaty little back-room in Shanghai, "motivating" their "employees" to work better.

Okay girlie, give me an estimate. =)

Simple:
1.0 ghz Duron
256 Ram (DDR, SDR, me no care)
ABit KG7 (Looks well enough)
One of them thar new Radeon MX's, 7500 or whatever
Either a Phillips Acoustic Edge or Turtle Beach sound card
DVD Drive (Nothing fancy)

Tricky:
Two harddrives, maybe 15-20 gigs each, set up in RAID as the same drive
The CHEAPEST damn 19 inch bigass monitor you can find, I hate those flatscreen things



Don't bother with networking or any other crap. If you can gimme a decent deal on a system like that I could cash out my vacation days and buy it next week. Not saying that I will, but irregardless, I'd like to know. =)

Speaking of Iron Monkey, what's with all these movies all at once trying to steal the glory of the Matrix? Iron Monkey is very much like it, put together with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and have you seen that new Jet Li film? Now that just burns me up! They tried to cast him for Matrix 2 and 3 and he turned it down saying he had "obligations" -- yeah, to produce a rip-off :P Even the title sings unoriginality -- "The One". heheheh

WTF was with that one Musketeers movie where they are using Asian martial arts in 18th century Europe?

I never saw that, but it looked like a bunch of crap.

One series of books that would benifit from martial arts/matrix moves would be the Drizzt Do'urden series by R.A. Salvatore. That would rock.

If it was chewed it wouldn't be a stick anymore now, would it, you village idiot.

Ha! Ha! You gave me an excuse for another post.

(Btw, if you check my profile, you'll notice that I've been registered since May of last year. If I was just interested in increasing my post count, it would probably be in the thousands by now.)

-cough-Lüt-cough-

Since this thread has something to do with money might as well share my funny little delema (plus I know a lot of people will come here since Kat started this and her posts get like 5 pages of responds).

Anyway I'm 15, don't have a job, I'm in debt with friends (why does weed have to be soo expencive?) and I need 50 for a new amp. I need a new amp cuz the one I have now doesn't have headphone plug-ins, and my parents are threatining to kick me out for listening to slayer after 10 P.M. If they were to kick me out I wouldn't need to spend 50 bucks on a new amp, but I'd need to move in with a friend for a while untill they pussy out of this and let me listen to metal after 10. Is it worth it or should I get a job? Actually I don't feel like doing any of that so just tell me how to make an easy 50 bucks.

I just know deadnail will say something intresting about this...

Does that include me? Because, I'm fairly interested. In fact, since I worked the last few days on a pretty big job (construction) I think my dad might be interested. Prices are negotiable I suppose?

What do you want? Deadnail's price was a little high because of the monitor, (extra shipping because of that, so that's even more cost), and also because he requested that specific motherboard. Prices aren't really negotiable in the traditional sense, but you can get your price changed by changing what you want. ^_^

Judging by your spelling I'd say it is well beyond time to lay off, buddy boy. I have ALWAYS gotten blasted in the company of like lack-minds and it is ALWAYS best to ride for free so long as you can provide a service for your fellow stoners, such as buying porn mags, booze, or a carton of smokes.

Actually I don't feel like doing any of that so just tell me how to make an easy 50 bucks.

If you were 18 you could just go to a sperm bank, and get a free cookie to boot. But, maybe if you were a tad less retarded you could find a work-around. How are those speakers plugged into the amp? You can get RCA-stereo jack to mini-plug converters at any Goddamn radio shack. You'd have to tinker with the back of the thing every time you wanted to switch from headphones to speakers but irregardless it'd be a quick fix for (most likely) under $20.

I like to carry my buddy's pet kitten in the hood of my overshirt. =)

$900? Um, ouch. =)

Well then, girlie, let me ease up on the specifics. I can snag my own monitor on my local-store-only credit card on my own volition so don't worry about that. Then I can ease up on...
1. Motherboard (whatever's good for you honey baby)
2. Sound card (anything but Creative but must have hardware 3D, and the Acoustic Edge seems like a BADASSED alternative to me)
3. Video card (on board will work until I can get myself a cheapo GF3Ti200 =)

I still want the Duron 1.0Ghz (with them tasty SSE instructions), at least 256 of ram, and two hard disks raidededed into one.

I don't mean to be an asshole. I hope I'm not getting on yer nerves. I don't want to be clawed.

Well, I WOULD say I could reduce the price of the motherboard but that IS one of the cheaper boards with RAID. Soo...

Actually, getting your own monitor will drop the price of the box to around 800.

All this for a Duron 1Ghz, 256MB DDR, KG7-RAID, Radeon 7500, Turtle Beach Santa Cruz, 12X DVD, 20GB 7200RPM IDE (x2), 300W PSU.

Really all you could do to make it cheaper without losing functionality would be to change out the soundcard for a Phillips Acoustic Edge, and that would only save you $10 or so.

I'd rather have a Phillips Acoustic Edge, though. =)

Looking at this system............. GAWD I AM SO DAMN TEMPTED. .................mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm........... whew. God. I'm sweating. I think I'm about to make a decision that will end up englufing my wallet IN FLAMES............... ... hmmm. Dammit.

Lemme finish this next round of pix. Hmm..
