i'd need a cpu w/fan & mboard but that could lead me
to needing RAM and a new case. I figured I could get a
decent cheap machine and upgrade as needed. The PSU I
have is decent and I could put that in. The CompUSA
emachines has a 64 bit sempron 3100, double layere dvd
writer. don't know what mboard it has.
