Come on Zeke... it's not that bad at all. Just look at my system!! I just bought my Celly 366 today for $10 and have it running at 550Mhz. I am very happy with my system and see no reason to spend any more money on it. That's largely due to the fact that I am in a similar situation as you are, no money to spend on it. Don't you dare say your system is sluggish or let anyone else say that... I'm running XP pro and my system is hardly sluggish. It does exactly what I need it to do right now.. Sure I would like to be able to play all my Playstation and MAME games at full speed... But I have plenty of older games to play as well as real life to keep me busy until I can get a new mobo, cpu, and ram. Try to look at the bright side!
