Well, the New Year is here! The year of James Bond(2 007) is upon us. and we have our new resolutions. I've always stuck with the same thing....but I went different this year. My resolution is to improve in the things I love. I want to improve on my sigs, and I want to become a better gamer. Well, these might come true with the news I'm bringing in the new year with.

I'm finally getting a new PC. What do I mean by finally? I've had the computer that I'm on right now for about 8 years. It's digging it's grave...already 1 foot in the ground. This computer restarts on me for no reason(my fault actually...had to open up my PC and get interested.....bad idea). The restarts have gotten so bad, I'm actually hiding on my guest account right now.

I'm hopefully going to be getting this computer in mid-February, beginning of March. That's when my mom is getting her income tax (Awesome huge thing you get if your family is broke like a bone). Right now, she might be getting $6,000, and thats what brought this into play. If she doesn't get enough....I dunno.

Anyways, onto what I'm getting. I have to go with a Gamer PC(duh..). I'm getting a custom Dell XPS 710. Runs me about $6,000, but we're doing one huge payment, then by the month. IMO, the specs are the best and ideal for me.....check them out.

See why it costs $6,000?

I'm getting WoW and BF: 2142 with it. I'll probably have it by mid-Feb. Promise I'll take pics of it when it's hooked up.

I'll be getting Vista when it comes out too!

This will also give me a better picture when making my sigs, so they'll certainly turn out better then ever.
