Good morning everyone, hope this Friday finds you well. Many people are still home with their families and such, so to call news slow is an understatement. Instead, you've pretty much just got me. So sorry. :( Results for the holiday contest should be up in a couple hours. My computer decided that maybe a dying hard drive would make things more fun, which I admit is pretty awesome!

So what are you guys playing this weekend? I'll give a Call of Duty 4 t-shirt randomly to someone who posts in the thread. Oh, and this gallery should populate itself with some good shacker creations over the next couple hours if you would like to take that in.

i was gifted a p3 1ghz/geforce3 in 2002 when i moved out of my parents house. in 2004 I bought a asus* with a p4 2.66 from a shacker for $150, i then bough 500 meg of memory and a geforce 5600 for it. In 2007 my roomate gave me a free p42.8 and radeon 9600pro.
I've played hl2, doom3, farcry, fear, cod4, and plenty others with this computer no problems. I dont get this "computer gamers need to spend $1k every year" crap.

*firefox thinks i bought an anus,but i dont remember doing that in 04
