if you live near a gamesstop i believe they sell xbox's for 100-150 bucks mm may need to buy a harddrive with it...but its worth it no need to spend 700 dollars on anything when you can cut that by 500 bucks at most...Originally Posted by DuoMaxwell007

I bought a LAPTOP off Ebay 2 YEARS ago that exceeds those specs for only $280 +$35 shipping. I See NEW PC's that FAR exceed those specs all the time for around $200 online, $300 locally. I probly have enough spare parts laying around to make one already:
P35 Mboard... check
Core2 Duo 3GHZ CPU...check
40 GB HD... check
ATI X1900 vid card... check
4GB DDR2 RAM... check
old beat up case with 650W ATX PSU... check
15" monitor... check
PS2 mouse check
Pioneer DVD-R Burner... Check
Floppy disk drive (don't really need... but... check)
PCI XiFi soundcard if I don't like onboard audio... check
Windows 98 SE and Windows XP Upgrade Disk--scored a 2 for one deal years ago when I got mine, never used other one, so....Check
Ethernet cable--several ranging from 3-12 feet in length, or I can use USB wifi adaptor I used to use for laptop years ago--check.
hmmm... the only thing I'm lacking is a keyboard... $10 at Big lots down the street... check.
UC can be downloaded for $10, then $30 for abyssea add-ons
soooo... that would cost me $50 to put another box online
I just might have to let my daughter play FFXI one day after all.....(0)Last edited by RAIST; 03-23-2011 at 09:49 AM.

lol yeah it is pretty easy to get a PC to play it on. bet it would look good on my Mac (but I hate playing games on PC). I am a console player all the way, PC is for surfing the net & trolling forums O.o
I did not just say that did I? Crap why would I admit that to everyone?
Well time to spend the night with my Wife. Thanks for all your help/information Raist.(0)NightDagger
