Wow.  So where the heck were they when WE were just elated to get a sub 
200 ping in QW???  LOLOL!   I was so addicted to QWCTF and Q2CTF I would 
try to hang in with a 400 ping until I got the dreaded PJOD!
I think the P4 with a gig of ram and eVGA 6800 128 meg with regular XP 
Pro will do ok for the batch of old games.   I can suffer along using 
just a measley 19" LCD 4ms flat panel in 1280x1024 ;o)
The 20.1" and 1600x1200 with X2 4800+ and 7800GTX 256 meg will be for 
anything that will run in x64, even if only 32 bit mode.
