That's cool but I've decided to either go with a H.Thread Pentium 4 or a 64 bit AMD and gotta work around that as I get the feeling they'll have a greater lifespan in the immediate 12-24 months.

I also need a CD/DVD hybrid, DVD doesn't need to be rewriteable though.

I do appreciate all the input I'm getting here, and from what I've found Kingston is about$14 more expensive than the Samsung/Infineon.
