To all you Athlon 64 users:

Yup. I tried x64 for a few eeks, but went back due to driver/software support.

I always swore " NO ipod/Apple crap ".

Lol. Your comparing a 2-4GB MP3 player with a 512mb one? Did you not notice that the former has over 4x as much disc space for less than twice as much money? Did you notice the color screen? The click wheel controls?

Fedex or UPS?

Agreed. My experiences with DHL are very good. And, like you said, for me their warehouse is not two towns away. Fedex over UPS though.

Floopy Drives Must Die

Installing a CPU...

I would install your heatsink/cpu (also ram) before putting the motherboard in your case, not only because it's a lot easier to work with, but also because your heatsink may use a non-standard motherboard bracker (i.e. Zalman's)

Best choice of P4 CPUs in $200-$250 range?

Go for the P-D. The majority of "pro" A/V apps are multi-threaded. In addition, as others have stated, it multitasks better. Photoshop does support Dual cores, though not all of it's filters use both cores. The majority of the app uses two processors though. Other apps I have used that...

If the fan is like other ZALMAN's, the fan blows through the heatsink and toward the back exhast, not onto the ram.

Compaq V4000 Notebook w/Photoshop CS

It'll work fine, P-M's are fairly good with photoshop. The only problem I see is the lack of RAM expansion (I assume that the notebook only has 2 slots) Also, why is your external only 5400?
