    whatcha gonna do with that P-6860FX and MBP once ya getcha NP9262? Couldn't wait for the 9800GTX SLI, huh? I don't blame ya either. The price drop on the NP9262 has been very tempting. I just configured one with nuttin' but top components at XoticPC for $4014.00! I bet if I haggle a bit with Justin, he'd drop the price to under $4k. Won't cha, Justin? Hehehe

    Welcome to the family! The NP9262 will blow your mind when you get it. So much power in a 12 pound shell.

    Awesome m8, very good choice! I've bit myself this week to wait until sep 22 since it will be pretty clear by then when roughly a sli model of gtx will come out. If by then the world has no clue (which I hopefully doubt) I'll be joinin ya with that configuration ;)

    Every day I check out the 9262 it becomes sexier and sexier :D

    Thanks for all the welcomes.

    The Gateway is possibly a hand-me-down to my son entering middle school this week, why? you have any ideas?

    nope, just making conversation. Once ya use the 9262, that Gateway ain't gonna be doing anything but collecting dust. You son's a lucky kid.

    I figure it will work well for a middle schooler, who only plays a few games, for hopefully a few years. I'm sure high school will change everything.

    I'm not sure how lucky he's gonna feel once he sees me rockin the Sager, but we'll see.

    ur me last year at this time... I think i was even called out by Gophn as lurker for like two months before i stated i bought the thing lol... But ur a middle schooler? **** kid... good for u lol. this will play EVERY game... u shud make use of it while its top of the line.. dont just play a FEW... get the GOOD ones... crysis, Cod4, SupCom, COH, i even like bioshock ALOT... but it kinda died down... i thought the gameplay and graphics were perfect... and the storyline. I like deep storylines.
