I can' t wait! only a few more days!! I've read all the books published so far and IMO Prisoner of Az is a better story than Chamber of Secrets.
No more Richard Harris. That will bug me a lot, as I will struggle to accept the new Dumbledore.
yeah, however from the little i have seen the new actor has done a great job and will easily slide into the role
No more Chris Columbus. I liked the style a lot in the past movies. Will it still feel like a Harry Potter movie with the new director?
the world and style is already established, i think they would have to try intentionaly to mess it up. the first two movies where almost exactly the stories in the book, word for word. very little is left out changed or edited. I don't see how they would change this formula until book 4 which will have to trimmed simply because of the amount of content.
3) The kids have grown up more. Now they're teenagers. Of course, this has to happen and it's part of the developing narrative arc, but still I will miss their youth.
4) Will the story suck? Yeah, I haven't read the book, this is funny because I love the movies so much I don't want to spoil myself, like reading the script before seeing the film. I do read the books after seeing the movie and marvel at how closely the movie follows the book (well, we know why...)
no worries. it only gets better from here, although book 5 kinda pissed me off.
leo - so should we get a ex-jw group to go see prisoner of az. i will see it in the theaters at least twice.

Dusty,
Fair warning SATA can be a SOB to boot from, for WinXP installs at least, moreso if you don't have a floppy drive.
And of course the important questions is what are you going to use it for? With a 9800 pro my guess is gaming. What games you play?
You are getting a fairly beefy video card, make sure your monitor can support it. My roommate has 9800XT and his monitor supports max resolution of only 1280x1024, which is a waste.
The spec looks right to me, I would add a DVD/R+-W though. Very handy for "backuping up" and stuff.
I would recommend the Athlon 64 or FX(if you gots lots of cash) series from AMD over a pentium, since they run 32 stuff fast now and can do 64 bit when the production version is released. Some games like Far Cry and a few others are even optimized for 64 bit supposedly.
if you don't know, one of the best places to get prices online is http://www.pricewatch.com

I watched the Disney version of Madeline L'Engle's "A Wrinkle In Time" the other night. It was interesting, except it annoyed me how they kept talking about the tesseract as if it is some magical device when it is only a 4 dimensional box (add one dimension to a cube). Otherwise I thought it was a fun story.
I have read everything by Herbert(sr and jr) in the dune series, everything in the foundations and robot series by Asimov, Everything by Douglas Adams, and am currently digging into the Pratchett library.
I also have read a good deal of Robert Anton Wilson, his books are mucho fun.
I also just read today Bradbury is coming out with a new book, but only have the title - "'Too Soon From the Cave, Too Far From the Stars' "
