Killing 2 Birds with 1 Stone

[PoorBoy]

Well I finally broke down and bought my 1'st AMD System It's a HP with a 5600+ CPU, 2 Gigs of Memory, Win Blows Vista Premium plus the usual assorted junk the Manufactures throw into their Pieces of Crap ...

I really wanted one of the new Quads that AMD put out but I don't think now is the time to be buying 1 of them with all the problems I've read about them. The only reason I bought this system is because I got it for $385 including shipping so I figured what the heck, for that Price I get a fairly fast AMD System and get to fiddle with Vista too.

I already have a few articles saved on how to get rid of a lot of the Bloat in Vista & to make it run as fast as XP so I can live with that I guess. If that don't work I'll just format the Drives & put a copy of XP Pro in it. Being new to a AMD CPU might give me some problems though trying to figure out the BIOS, but being it's a HP I don't figure there's much I'll be able to do with it anyway ...
