My Computer - October 2006

Finally got around to buying a new computer - ours was around 7 years old, and just getting too slow for what I needed, so time to upgrade! Bought all the components from Memory Express (except speakers - Future Shop), and a friend from work helped assemble it. Here's the specs (click on item for more details):

• Aspire X-QPACK Aluminum Case, Silver-Black w/ 420W Power Supply
• MSI K9NGM2-FID w/ Geforce 6150, DualDDR2 800, 7.1 Audio, Gigabit Lan, 1394, PCI-E x16
• AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ EE w/ 2x512K Cache (Socket AM2)
• Kingston 1GB PC2-5300 DDR2 SDRAM
• Western Digital 250GB Caviar SE16 7200rpm SATA II w/ 16MB Cache
• LiteOn SHW-160P6S 16x16 DVD+/-RW Dual Layer Drive, Black (OEM)
• Acer AL1916WAsd 19in Widescreen LCD w/ DVI, 5ms, Silver-Black
• Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 6000, OEM
• Altec Lansing Speakers (VS2321)

Sorry the pics are a bit fuzzy - had to take them without a flash, and my hand isn't steady enough...

EDIT: 2006/11/02 Got a metal monitor riser and a cool blue LED mouse pad (matches my case!):
