Word with Windows?
 

I am gona build my next computer and i am going to have Windows XP as my OS. I am just wondering if Word, excel, and powerpoint come with XP or if i have to buy the seperate...

You have to buy OfficeXP seperate. It's a bunch o' cash too... like $400.00 or something.

damnit annoy:

Another questions my new motherboard is going to be 12" x 9.6" (30.5cm x 24.5cm) and i am wondering how big of a tower(case) should i get?

I am going to have some big cards in there like an audigy 2 and a geforce 4...

Also should i get Windows XP home or Pro

Pro

care to say why? Pro cost a lot more money ed:

you have the same in-game name as me..... ::sobs::

fuck xp pro, people say its better, but there isnt much of a difference in my opinion. it is a tad safer, security wise, but my xp home is working just as good as my friends with pro, maybe even better.

0_o Another Enigma... Hmmmm...

cuss: cuss:jk

regular size ATX case should fit. (Make sure you have a powersupply rated for the type of processor).

yea i was wondering about the power supply... Do you know where i could find that out? I was just planning to go down to comp USA... And is there any kind of tower i should get? I mean like aluminem or metal case? I have some crappy dell case now... Also i want something not over $20 and something that will be easy to put my parts in

big tip. stay away from stores. espcially on a budget. I am guessing you live in the states so you have the worlds greatest resource at your dispossal
