PC Specs Updated...Sort Of...and more

I haven't been doing much online for a while, just the occasional tweet or facebook update. So I have decided to make another useless blog post. Just PC specs and what I'm up to.

Here's what I'm running with now:

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 running @ 2.4GHz
Memory: 4GB DDR2 667 (2 x 1GB Kingston DDR2 667 and 1 x 2GB Transcend DDR2 667)
Hard Disks: 500GB (2 x 250GB Seagate SATA 7200rpm 8MB Cache)
Video: Inno3d NVidia 8800GT 512MB 256bit
Monitor: 22" AOC 210V @ 1680 x 1050 res
Keyboard: Logitech G11 Gaming Keyboard
Mouse: Logitech G7 Wireless Gaming Mouse
Speakers: Altec Lansing ATP3 2.1
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit (Build 7100)

For those of you who keep track, I'm still running the same outdated system but I got a wee bit more RAM. I know it's not much but it's a start. Also, I got rid of the 32" LCD TV and put it in the living room because my XBox 360 is gone. I can't, no i refuse, to use it as a computer screen because it doesn't give me a decent enough resolution (1080i cuz I don't have an HDMI cable). I'm kind of glad to have my 22" AOC back.

In other news, I've finished playing with the single player mode of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 on 4x AA High (not Ultra-high) settings. The game was nice. Just like Modern Warfare, it has a very nice plot. I enjoyed it for about, oh, 4 hours. Just wish there was more. However, I'm making my way through the Solo mode of the Special Ops. This just shows that I need more friends. lol.

Also, I've just finished watching the DVDRip of Samurai Princess and Gamer. No comments. both movies were mediocre at best. However, if you're into blood and gore, Samurai Princess does it like no one else. Just be sure to get subtitles (the link above includes them), or learn Japanese quick.

Oh and I'm also trying out Parallels 5 on my mac. It boasts that you get full support for Aero Effects and Flip3D. We'll just have to see. It's still installing right now.
