I prefer AMD as well for gaming. Bah, my new computer is built for gaming but I had choice in CPUs so I had to get intel.

Hahha XD I remember your old screen. You were the first person to be on my buddy list. I remember the AIM trend. You still talk to your friends on AIM even though they're walking distance from you.

And yes...I remember creating shitty geocities websites!

I remember trying to make a shitty Dragonball Z, Sailor Moon, Gundam wing and Final Fantasy fan site. That failed so badily.

Nope.
