Yeah after I get my other build set up. This set up will be back up. For whenever my main rig crashes.

I understand Dells suck, just out of curiosity though. What are the specs for the Dell your using? They seem to include E2180's in their systems much more often lately. Probably due to the fact the E2180 is hovering around 80$ as of right now.

its an old p4, 2.8 ghz with not ht even and 512mb of ram but the guy who lent it to us has it well optimized about 34 tasks on boot.
