  Go Sim Lim and collect all the handouts, first.
  
  Know what you want, know the price.
  Go about with knowledge.
  Otherwise you will annoy the vendors, and they will "annoy" you back.
  
  Have fun.
  Remember to ground your self, and watch out for that perspiration dripping from your head.

  Vista is future? No thanks.. Its the past already in my sense. Its just an overly advertised Windows Me kinda product. Its crap. I will wait for Windows 7. It sure seems promising..

  Windows 7 is still in development, not beta, but from the news, it sure sounds good.

  The 256 one.8600Gt is only a mid-level GFX so most of the time you won't fully utilize the extra 256MB since your gfx would already be throttling at that point
