If you're thinking that way (and also wondering if overclocking is for you) then it probably isn't - you need to be wholly confident that it's the right thing to do AND you also need to know what you're doing. Another thing to consider is that it'll likely reduce the lifespan of your parts, especially if you start overvolting to get more overclock out of things.
The 8600GT is a budget card now. (It was never much better than low-mid range to start with, so how you can say it is now is beyond me)
SoftTH needs 2 video cards on dual-head cards such as the GTX260 - if he wants 3 screens off one card then it needs to have the capability of running 3 outputs - the GTX260 certainly doesn't have that 
Arch Linux - and it's still crash happy in certain circumstances. When it works it's really nice though
If google shows nothing at all you don't need it. What's more important is finding the cause of the error and eradicating it
Decided to play with KDE4.2 a bit - Second screen's not on the screenshot to save space (it's just the same background)
Hate to burst the bubble there but you've coupled an LGA1366 board with an LGA775 processor. Bit of a no-no, since it won't work
Assuming no SLi is needed, might I suggest http://www.newegg.ca/Product/P ... aspx?Item=N82E16813131347 as a replacement for the motherboard?
That article is way out of date. If you look at the URL it says Aug 30th 2004. 4 years is a hell of a long time PC-wise
Had a quick look on the 'egg and found http://www.newegg.com/Product/ ... aspx?Item=N82E16834220340 - exactly on budget and looks well specced enough for LFSing etc.
I've got my Q9400 (essentially the same as the Q9450, just with half the L2 cache) comfortably to 3.4GHz with a Freezer 7 Pro on stock volts. If I want to go higher I'll need to get better RAM (I'm on DDR2-800, didn't originally intend to overclock it).
If we're talking weight too, I'm a little over 50kg - built like a twig, me

Bah, tall gits, the lot of you.
At time of last measurement I was 5 ft 6.

Now now, you should have looked at the link first, really
Anyway, back on topic: Brundle for the BBC is great news. He really knows his F1 (mainly due to having driven in it himself) and was EASILY the better commentator ITV had.
Impossible, they weren't launched until April 2004
EDIT: nVidia GeForce GTX280 here

I'm only aware of having dual screen setups with the ability for a single accelerated window to span them all. When you go from 2 to 3 you need to start using seperate X screens with Xinerama (instead of nvidia's Twinview or MergedFB) to get the ability to span windows. Of course, this kills off any and all ability to run LFS in them, since OpenGL acceleration gets totally hosed. So, you're pretty much limited to dual screen, which if you're using TwinView/MergedFB it'll create one large virtual desktop that the LFS window can span across.
Sell it on eBay as spares? Seems the best idea for it, you may be able to get some money back...
And BTW - Office 2007 REALLY won't like a 633MHz Celeron ULV CPU
The 701 is slow, small and has a VERY poor battery. You'll be lucky to get 2 hours out of it. (I have one myself, put ArchLinux on it and put a 1GB RAM stick in. I've tweaked the system for battery life and yet get about 2 hours 10 at most). Personally I'd have gone for a 901, better battery life, faster AND more storage space. Well worth the extra money.
As has been previously said it will not work. You're wasting your time trying.
Notice anything odd? Only Remembrance Day?
Regarding the 2004 one: Isn't it funny how Virginia, Colorado, Iowa, Nevada AND Ohio ALL voted Democrat, as did Florida. A purely unscientific observation, but 
Well let's just say it's the Americans (AND British, you're not alone over there) that the Taleban are bombing, not their own. And it's not "one of those things that happened". It happened BECAUSE the Americans (and Brits) went in. How can you bomb that which is not there?
I can name one: The United States of Afghanistan. Of course, it was caused by the US going in to start with...
And before anyone goes off on me for what I called Afghanistan it's obviously a joke. Get over it.
I can hack my 17" CRT to somehow do 2048x1536. How it does it I have no idea at all, but it does :P
