A monster is born

Got my new computer yesterday. Specs go so:

Processor : Intel Core2Duo E6300 (1.86 GHz) 1066 MHz Bus Speed
Motherboard : Intel 965 Chipset based
RAM : Transcend 1 GB DDR2 @ 667 MHz
Hard Disk : Seagate 240 GB Serial ATA drive
Monitor : Samsung 17" TFT
Sound : Onboard sound STAC Codec, Creative Inspire 2.1 speakers.
Video : Onboard something
LG DVD writer, Zebronics cabinet and SMPS.

Running WinXP SP3.

A monster is born. I know, I know, not really supercomputer specs, but considering what it replaced, definitely a huge difference. My Ex PC's config:

Intel Celeron Processor 766 MHz, Mercury mainboard 815E Chipset, 256 MB SD RAM 133 MHz, 160 GB IDE HDD 7200 rpm, Onboard Sound AC97 codec with Creative SBS20 speakers, Samsung 17" CRT, nVidia RIVA TNT2 32 MB AGP card. It's almost antique now, but was pretty cutting edge back in its times. Don't laugh.

I'll be posting my unscientific and wholly exaggerated reviews about the new comp soon. Just a friendly warning.
