Make sure the P4 is one with the northwood core (512kB cache). Some resellers are still selling the old willametes, which are much slower at the same frequency, and run hotter.

Oh, and August 22 2003? Mistaken by a year maybe? ;)

u should get an athlon XP instead of p4..... they are way faster & cheaper, but its ur choice :) wouldnt mind having one of those tho :D

P4s are not as compatible with older software. I have had to download patches for some of my software to get it to run on a P4. I never had this problem with AMD cpus. When you have problems......

I'm looking at a new PC but the specs will be somewhat more modest (especially since the price to upgrade to a gig of RAM just went up by a third)

bad choice getting a pre-built system mann, they solder all the hardware to the slots/sockets so no upgrade is possible, also some other things gateway and the like do to pcs to make them GATEWAY only :(
