Super cheap web hosting - www.bsdwebhosting.net

hello athakur999, how could you pay only $0.05 for three months when just storage costs you $0.05/day/100MB? If you have only 1MB page there, it would cost you almost those $0.05 (3 months = 90 days, 1MB/day * 90 days...), not to speak about traffic charge and CPU time charge. And... how long...

how much better is a tbird vs a duron?

hello, greenpoint, the best choice for you right now is to buy 1GHz TBird and overclock it. You can bet on 1333MHz with normal coolers (just not the crappiest), >1.4GHz with top-class ones such as Swiftech 462 and so on, you can read about them in this forum. Anything below 1GHz Tbird is not...
