I'm in the market for a new PC, on a budget of about $750. This leaves me deciding between the AMD 64 x2 5000 and the Intel entry level Core 2 Duo E6300. The video card I chose is the 256 MB X1300 Pro from ATI. I'm looking for a solid performer for video editing and moderate game playing. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Have just been given a 'old' imac (1999 I think), from a school, It only seems to have around 8 GB free space but I can't find any programs that are using much memory. How much memory should one of these things have?

I want to upgrade my socket 939 AMD 3000+ chip. I've found an AMD 3500 Venice at £60 http://www.aria.co.uk/#/Products/Components/CPUs+%2F+Processors/AMD/Athlon+64+Socket+939/AMD+Athlon64+3500+Venice+Retail?productId=18149 and a 3700+ http://www.komplett.co.uk/k/ki.asp?sku=318311 at £45. They both run at 2.2 GHz, so I'm puzzled by the difference in the price.. I'm tempted to go for the cheaper 3700 as it also has twice the cache memory. Or am I missing something?

This is an internal Philips CD-RW drive for a desktop PC.

Ok, i got this laptop cd-rom on my desktop. i was putting a cd in but didn't really press it in, so now it disappeared somewhere in the thingy. i have no clue how to get it out of there because i can still use it for reading other cd's, it's just gives me an uneasy feeling that somewhere in there is a linux live cd-rom. Have any ideas?
