A simple introductory thing and nothing more I suppose. Not sure how much it matters to start here but why not?

For further refference here's my machine specs, please don't laugh ok?

Dell L733R
Coopermine P3 processer at 733Mhz(not sure of the cache sizes)
256MB ram(both 128mb pc100 sticks)
one 20gb drive( I think its western digital)
One four gb drive used for backups as well as linux.
one 10x dvd rom drive
pacific digital external cdrw(i'm wanting to say 48/32/48)
nvidia Vanta/vanta nt card(16mb)
Samtron 77v moniter(17 inch display)

No agp slot ;-;

OS's
Windows ME9never has once given me a problem)
Vector linux(using a combination of icewm, rox to handle the icons and endevor as my primary file manager)

Now then, why am I here and why havne't i upgraded?

Well I'm here because this's a place of tech savvy people, so duh, place to feel at home at.

As for why i haven't upgraded, another simple one...i'm broke from collage still(had to drop, death in the family and other personal matters cropped up).
