if i had to play ps on my laptop's touch pad i would shoot myself. It just takes time to get used to the extra keyboard stretch.

i like your setup Bhop, the only problem is i saw no monitor or keyboard. i'm guessing it would go over 1grand if i added those to the 880 price tag...

Mouse, of course. Keyboard, nope.
Was used to the arrow keys for flying/fighting, but had to learn to use WASD since the compact keyboard puts the those keys in the bottom right corner.
It runs PS pretty well, that is, at Low/Med, which is how I've always played. But it's a step ahead of the sh*tbox I used up until last year. Piece-of-crap P4 (1st gen, 400Mhz bus, socket 423), 1.4Ghz, 512mb RDRam (Rambus.. lol.. old skool), 128mb video card.. good times.. good times..

Personally, I do not like companies that build computers for you like CyberPower Inc. My sister decided to get a computer there and she ended up with poor service and not many choices to choose from. The problem with the computer you built on their website mainly lies in the power supply, the ones listed there are inferior in my opinion. The power supplies they listed really do not have any quality, I especially hate the Aspire's and think they are crap-- They only have 1 +12V rail, and really have been not known for sustained performance coupled with stability. I can't really fight off the Intel zealots, but I can say the truth lies in the specs . Long live AMD! Death to those hyperthreaded pencil-necks.
