i will use this computer for:
dual boot xp & ubuntu
i multitask a lot but here is the basics
mainly multimedia and p2p, azureus, photoshop, movie maker, itunes, firefox, dvd decrypter,
a few games, maybe counterstrike, starcraft 2
i bought a gateway like 9 months ago and it has onboard video and windows is installed on a partition, so i am buying an extra hard drive and video card to install into the gateway and then put windows on its own hard drive to make it more stable and run WoW better for my brother.
