2. Waaayyyyyyy cool
Seriously...if I was on the Internet for more than 5 minutes, my computer would lock up and I'd have to reboot and run ScanDisk every f'ing time. Probably took 6 months off my life.

3. My old computer would freeze all the time .
If I moved the mouse - it would freeze . If I did not move the mouse - it would freeze . I am surprised it even lasted that long . My new computer was actually build in this millenium lol . Mine has 80GB of Hard Drive space and I have 60 GB left - what's a girl to do ?

4. I have 200 GB now
I mean, how much porn can a guy d/l? J/K but I will be d/l'ing a bunch of tunes.

Funny you say about moving the mouse...me too! If I moved it over my "Outlook Express" icon it was bye bye time.

5. Hmmm, I haven't upgraded my computer in 4 years
800 Mhz Pentium 3
320 meg ram
twin 75 gig IBM hard disks
Win 98SE
SBC DSL, solid 1400/384 connection

I reboot about once a week. more often if I'm installing something. But generally it's been so stable I just have been able to justify in my mind an OS or hardware upgrade.
