So, I'm a Broke-Ass Chump. :P

Here is a button. The button does cool things. (Explanation forth-coming. I did this on spur-of-the moment because a friend expressed interest.)
Explanation, copy-pasta'd cause I'm lazy. :P
Hey guys, just wanted to post a quick update, and apologize for the lack in content, lately. I hope to get episode 7 of Drew's SMP Adventures recorded in the near future.
On a slightly-serious note. I'm considering my current PC, and how outdated it is, and find myself longing for something slightly more powerful. I already have a spare computer sitting around, that would serve as a nice temporary replacement, with a few parts. Estimated cost to get it running would be about $100, which includes a new motherboard, and some RAM. Given my current situation, finding that much extra money would be difficult.
Current:
Intel Pentium 4 2.6GHz w/ HyperThreading
2GB DDR 400 RAM
GeForce 6200 w/ 512MB VRAM
Upgrade:
AMD Athlon X2 2.2GHz Dual-Core
4GB DDR 400 RAM
ATI Radeon HD 4350 w/ 1GB VRAM
I have all the parts, aside from the 4GB of RAM, and the motherboard has several bulged capacitors, which cause the entire system to hard shut down at random. I've priced the replacement board at roughly $50 USD, plus another $50 for the RAM. If anyone could consider donating, it would help me to continue producing my LP, and perhaps start a couple other projects.

UPDATE: Success! My good friend "MagickEh" just donated the e-bucks I needed for the motherboard. Now, the only (somewhat optional) component left is the 4GB RAM. Between my current PC, and spare modules I have scattered around, I can probably load it up to 3GB, so this doesn't have to happen any time soon. I'll leave all the info here, however, and be sure to mention it in my next LP, with special thanks.
