Doing an image search for "naked city" is not a good idea.

Well, I've read a book about Zorn before listening to Zorn, and from it I gather the S/M, torture & other provocating photos in Zorn's cover art all have a background (like Zorn living in Japan for a while and asimilating all that load of far-from-forbidden imagery) and are there for a reason. The book (a sort of biography meets analysis one) also emphasizes that Zorn is hardly a S/M lover, just like he's not gone berserk into writing tons of klezmer or occult music either. It would moreover be his intention to underline and interpret such subject, or rather to give attention to things like these that rarely end up as themes or reasons for which to write music. And the all come in one package, so choose it or skip it. It's rather more surprising when he goes back to such habits, i.e. an peaceful, bland ambient work such as The Gift coming with a sado-maso booklet. Henry, why not ask a mod to give you the status "Miles Cyrus expert"? It's not really a location.

You didn't get the one with the integrated video card, did you? You'll regret that later if you did.
Rico, I hadn't thought of asking someone for the custom title, but I don't think they'd do it. Then everybody would want a joke title.

No, this is a completely different one. I don't even know the full specs yet. It is a lot nicer than my older one though. I might need to still buy a graphics card, and I would like to get more RAM, but that is about it.
Edit: How stupid can you be? If a guy gives you a gun you might as well be happy about it.

Unless I am greatly mistaken, it's impossible to upgrade integrated video because it's part of the motherboard. And how can you not know the specs yet?

I haven't looked. And I may be wrong, but don't some mother boards that have integrated also have slots for video cards?

I guess it's possible, and I wouldn't know what the standard is, but I wouldn't count on it.

If it's a laptop you can't upgrade.

It is a desktop. I see that there is an AGP slot to use.

Windows 7 is for gay people and weirdos.

I have watched the occasional episode of The Golden Girls, does that count as gay?
