    PSP $169 @ ubid (refurbed)

    Also,the PSP will soon reach $150 to boost sales so it will be far cheaper and new. Refurb PSPs would definitely be something you want to avoid since they are usually the result of the PSPs sent in that's broken.

    A few random questions

    IMO, the best value graphics card is the Nvidia Geforce 6600GT 128MB. I got one from Newegg last Christmas for $100 and it has dual DVI ports and can run games like FEAR on max settings with no lag at all. Just for comparison, I have a 3.0GHZ HT P4 processor, 1GB of ram.

    A memory problem! (UPDATED CONCLUSION)

    Um, I would definitely consider ordering online. BB has very crappy brands and I would opt for Kingston or Corsair. I personally have found Zipzoomfly to be best with RAM but Newegg also works. Good luck. Remember, its' really worth it to spring for the better ram.

    Hard Drive

    Somehow, I realized that my hard drive is completely filled up (160GB) but I have no idea how that happened. I heard somewhere there's a free app that shows you where the HDD space is taken up. Does anyone know the name/dl link? Thanks in advance.

    Music Store help (iTunes and Connect)

    Yes for iTunes. They will warn you that you will have duplicate copies of the songs but will not reduce the album price. Connect store is much worse than iTunes, unless you have a Sony MP3 player.

    building computer from newegg, 99% done, need last minute opinion before finalizing!

    Athlon 3000+ is def not enough. I would recommend getting at least a 3800+ or a X2 processor. It's a bit more expensive but its def worth it in the long run. Never buy processors this obsolete when building your own computer.

    Does anyone know how good Wester Digital harddrives are?

    Generally, Seagate drives and Western Digital ones are pretty reliable. However, no drive is guaranteed to be 100% reliable. Maxtor drives offer the best GB/$ ratio, though the quality is lacking. Another thing to note is that WD has its premium lines of Raptor (10000RPM) and Caviar hard...

    macs... cheap macs.

    10-15% off, haha. The discount is $20 off of both models. That results to a savings of 3.3% for the $600 model and a savings of 2.5% for the $800 model. Those things aren't really high margin, and is a "gateway mac", get people hooked on OS X so they'll pony up for a higher-margin/higher-end...

    Need help with iTunes music store!

    No, that's not why there's no Beatles music on it yet. They are currently in the process of digitally remastering all of their music/backlog. When they are finished and the music is ready to be sold online, iTunes might get to sell it. There's no denying iTunes is the most popular online...

    Need help with iTunes music store!

    No, you can only purchase stuff from other countries if you have an account in that country. This is to prevent Europeans from buying our cheaper movies and music. Just an example, a video costs 1.89 pounds, which is equivalent to around $3.70 as opposed to $1.99 here.

    Seriously though, before you purchase anything, post it (url for online items, description for offline) and we'll let you know if the components are worth it, if they are all compatible, and if there's something better for cheap. I can guarantee $400 isn't gonna be enough so you need to expand...

    Help

    The new Intel chips have decent integrated graphics. While not ideal, it allows Jeremy to save some money now for later because his specified $400 won't get him too much, esp to qualify for a gaming PC. The processor will probably cost $300 of that $400 at best. Ram will run you another $80...
