Well the new PC is up and running

Finally got some bare bones protection and functionality on it...

Sal is trying a new game on it now,   and throughout the week we'll actually load it up with office, openoffice, photoshop, gimp, and all the other standard stuff

oh, and it can run  Junior 9 with 1200 MB of RAM and evaluate 2M positions a second.  I think it will be beating me everytime.  If i ever get the dual proc version, I guess 3.5M positions a second is possible.

of course, with even better machines (quad cores, faster RAM, etc)  it's no wonder these machines are beatine gradnmasters routinely now.
