AMD has the best processors these days. Go with an AMD FX or X2 processor. Many people prefer Intel because they are familiar with it and so they have brand loyalty, but the latest Intel models are really getting crushed by AMD for gaming. AMD may show a slower clock speed than the Intel chips, but they still end up faster for a number or reasons. First of all, the dual cores (in the X2's and even numbered FX's) talk directly to each other, but on the dual core Intels, the data has to leave the processor to go to the other core, I believe through the North Bridge, which slows it down comsiderably, and kind of defeats the purpose. Also, the new Athlon chips have a dedicated memory bus, which means that they communicate with the computer's RAM on one line and the rest of the computer on another, rather than having all communication jammed into a single bus, like with Intel. On a side note, as it doesn't deal with gaming but should still be noted, Athlon has adopted Enhanced Virus Protection (EVP) which is a processor-level virus blocker. Intel has plans to use this in the future, but Athlon has it now.\nAlso, if you plan to build a good gaming rig, you should know that athlon and Nvidia fit together like a glove. Athlons also tend to run cooler than Intels as well as being more stable.\nIf you have plenty of cash, and are building a system, I'd recommend an ASUS A8N32-Deluxe Motherboard, and Athlon AMD FX-60 Processor, dual Nvidia GeForce 7900 GTX's from BFG, and 4GB or Corsair memory. Then add a pair of 300GB SATA hard drives in RAID setup, a Thermaltake 735 water-cooling system with flow monitor and temp. indicator, a HardCano 13 fan controller and card reader, 2 lightscribe DVD+-R drives, a soundblaster X-Fi Fatal1ty, and (once it's available) an AGEIA PhysX physics processor card. Put all of this into a Thermaltake Armor or Kandalf with the optional side panel fan, and then add in the thermaltake cupholder and car cigarette-lighter-style plug just for the heck of it. (and if you're really loaded, buy me a matching set, as well) The slightly more budget model (although still not cheap) would be the same motherboard, an Athlon AMD 4200+ or 4400+, dual 7800 or 7900 GT's and 2GB or RAM, along with whatever accessories you could afford. \n\nTrust me, AMD is the way to go. I just did a lot of research to upgrade my system, and everything I found showed AMD kicking Intel's @$$.

You would be better off buying a used set from eBay or checking the classifieds in your local newspaper.  You could even check out the stock at any pawn shop.  My first set was a total "no name" ("Lyra").  After I got really good, I graduated to a used set of Ludwigs.

I recently found a band called Ka'Nal.  They are great, and I know that there is a live show available for free download on Archives.com.  They incorporate sounds from a lot of different cultures.

My family is going through some financial strains this holiday season, so I told my husband not to buy me any gifts. He agreed. I immediately felt disappointed, and I imagined Christmas morning with no gift under the tree -- how sad I would feel. I wish I had suggested a dollar limit, even if it was just $10 or $20. I would have been quite happy with a DVD, book or a music CD. Just a little something to celebrate the love. Thanks for asking the question. It got me to own up to my true feelings. I think I'll let my husband know what they are and make my suggestion of a limit. :-)

You guys are awesome.  I think I may have finally met someone that likes Orbital as much as me, but not likely j/k.  I saw Orbital at the House of Blues in Orlando.  Their last show was on my birthday (7/10) in Ireland, I wanted to go so bad.  I don't want to brag but I have both of the American Releases of In Sides.  If you want the first release I could send it to you.  Contact me through Answers.  I know it's illegal but it's out of print, if they want to make money start selling it again.

I'm getting married in Cyprus in September so see you there!!!\n\nI'm giving gifts when I get back to Britain as there will be too much stuff for people to take as it is without adding presents to the chore, but if you want to give something there then some custom made jewelry or some lace goods are very traditional

This year it seems that I am doing everything backwards.  Usually I have all my shopping done by Thanksgiving and then I start my decorating.  This year I had my in-laws for Thanksgiving so I wanted the house to be completely decorated.  Everything is up (Three Trees!) and I have bought only 1 gift out of a total of 45!  Wow!  I need to get moving - TODAY!  Thanks for asking such a great question - it got me thinking of everything I need to do.\n\nMerry Christmas!

If your truly into the techno/dance/trance/house scene check out this site http://www.thedjlist.com/ . This site is global. I found a DJ listed there that I heard in Bahrain (Karim Miknas). This site puts the best artists names up. So if your searching for music use their names. I've been all over Spain, Portugal, England, Dubai (UAE), Alaska, Miami, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., this is the list to watch if you love techno!

pulse makes a good set that comes with cymbals for about 450 (i think, don't quote me on that)\nremember to keep in mind whether or not a kit has cymbals before you buy it.  otherwise, you will have to spend more money on those, too.  \n\ntry musiciansfriend.com\nthey've got some good kits

Hi Eternity blue, I'm going to "assume" you are from abroad...since you used the word "pounds". LOL! My suggestion would be a "gift" card/certificate to a local cafe' or pub. You shouldn't make the gift to "personal"(in my opinion). Happy Holidays! XOXO Moonpie

Garage sales are a good place to find some. My family found ours there (it was 15 dollars) and it's Butterfly, it's the correct size and height and everything, and my brother is using it now to train. You could also check ads, or put up ads, in a newspaper or in your local library and such. People who are moving to a different house or state or country probably don't want to lug a large pingpong table with them, and so they will sell it cheap. A place you won't want to look is online, because for such a large item, shipping and handling will cost a lot.
