Hey, GICO said he has Firewall

"How fast is your computer" What does having a floppy drive have to do with how fast your computer is? Or a parallel or serial port?

Anyway...

Here is my current system (new laptop issued by college)

1.6 Ghz Intel Centrino, 32 MB Mobile Radeon 9600, 512 MB RAM...that is all that matters.

actually the cache and spin rate of your hard drive matter too.

So can I safely assume you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about? Google would have multiple servers, to spread the workload. And 120GB of RAM is really exsessive, even for a server

Quote: "i know win xp pro 64-bit supports 32mb is there an os and mohterboard that supports more"


And that doesn't even make any sense. 32mb of what?

If he's talking about memory, I believe the 64-bit limit is around 4TB - I dont know of any consumer board that will accept that amount...

Although i have decided to save raven some time:

52-inch apple monitor
Geforce 990000 128GB
128bit Intel pentium 6 17.000001Ghz ,with uber 1337 hyper threaded technology
17.1 UBER 1337 Super Surrounded surround sound
15Gigs of RAMBUS Extreme traviling at 2ghz
5 Terrabyte Eastern Digital (he is too good for westren Digital) ATA60000 Hard Drive.

Plus it features 4 games built for him specificlly from John Carmack. Also it has HL2 running with Sweet FSAA, they even made a "Bink Video" out of him.

All of his drivers are never gonna be commercial and built for him by nVidia.
