I probably will next year.
I have hardly touched my PS3 or Xbox in the last 6-9 months due to being too busy, so don't see the point in getting one now, probably wait till around easter when prices have eased and issues resolved, more games available etc.

On Wednesday I got my system at work upgraded from 4GB to 16 GB RAM. It's also a Win7 64 bit.
A fairly sweaty i7 CPU, but the 4GB RAM was killing me. It was sooooo slow when working in Visual Studio. Granted, the main workspace is a monster with 203 projects, but the extra memory has truly made a huge difference, so NotSoMad right now .

No McAfee? No Norton? Your machine is deprived of the very software that gives it its identity and purpose.
If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

Along with the software to load, try configuring your network settings to use OpenDNS http://www.opendns.com/[^] instead of the ISP DNS. That provides a better security against malware and phishing sites besides a good speed in surfing.

This sounds exactly like my current dev workstation, except for the bitness, built in 2009 when Win7 was released...October I think. Anyway, four years later, and loaded with VS6, VS2010, 3 versions of Cyrstal Reports, 2 versions of Office, 3 instances of SQL Server, MySQL, Komodo Edit, etc. it still rocks! Load it up and see what it can do. I think you will be surprised.
This machine has broken my 3 year cycle for hardware replacement. Short term, I hope to double the memory and do a fresh install to 64 bit. It'll also be getting a new case and possibly a CPU cooler/fan to minimize the noise...but mostly, the same hardware in a new box. Good luck with it!

Be warned: "dirty deeds done with sheep"
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

Wow what an awesome concept, instead of the $6 million dollar man you have a $2K and change.

All is forgiven as long as you keep the ice, snow and elephanting cold up North with you and leave the good weather to us here in Oz.

Odd, it works in Sweden. We're usually among the first ones to be blocked.
