Thanks guys....i guess it was just too easy to screen in the clouds. I'll have to spend some more dollors with Mike and Robin, and get the whole thing looking right.
I looked at a new system today...but Im not sure...its real grunty, but do you think its a sim machine?....details below:

HP Pavillion
3.06GHZ Intel i3-540
4GB DDR3 Ram
1tb hard drive
1gb dedicated graphics
Windows 7
20" LCD
$ 1399

Not sure what that dedicated graphics means.

My system now is.
Mixed bits
2.6 GHZ Celeron D
2 GB Ram
150gb hard drive
512MB ati radeon x1650
20" viewsonic crt....which i like

It means DONT buy it....... Unless it has a PCIE x16 slot so you can buy a dedicated GFX card.
It has onboard integrated graphics that commandeer system ram and CPU resources. Even though the cpu is rated at 3.06ghz the onboard gfx will instantly take a quarter of that power. And the gfx processing power is sh@t to say the least.

Ideal if you want to surf, and run an entertainment center.

And a real freakin Pain in the B*tt if you want to play Fs2004 or FSX on it - Last computer prior to present had Integrated graphics result exactly as Rotordude says.
