You can get a 6 meg for like $150-200 and it's great. There are way more good points then bad about Digital VS. Film.

Probably just one of those things people choose to bitch about I guess...

Okay, it still doesn't mean he has to bitch about it. :lol:

You know what, I can't afford a supercomputer, so I think from now on I will claim that they suck for various reasons...

I hope to FSM you'd never save a photograph in GIF format. :shock: It's a horrible torture for a photo to suffer through. :P

Ain't that the truth. Heck, some of us are even accessing sites using a computer that's more powerful than the server. :mrgreen:

Not after my upgrade! :P

My processor is capable of 2.8 with stock heat-sink, but right now my memory gets too hot because it's not rated to take the stresses of overclocking. I plan on 3.0 GHz after my cooling system is installed. I will also upgrade to 1.5 gig of memory as well.

You still bigger then me? :twisted:

Yup.

3.2GHz and a gig of DDR. I can throw in some more if I have to, just to maintain bragging rights.

Just because people call you a dick all the time doesn't mean you're really all dick.

:lol: Unless I actually want a grainy effect on the picture, or make an animation (like Moosedoom's "Dalty! HOTT!!" avatar) I always save JPEG.
