It's an iBuyPower Gamer 941AE Desktop, Intel Q6600 Quad Core Processor, 3 GB RAM (8 GB MAX), 500 GB Hard Drive, Dual NVIDIA GeForce 8800GTS 512MB, Vista Premium.

It's what he liked and bought with his own money, but I had to help with the online buy at Amazon.

Also, he picked up his own copy of Visual Studio 2008 Professional.

He will be getting into the Coding just like me.

In addition, he picked up Notron Internet Security 2008 and System Works.

Last week he bought his 22 widescreen monitor, Samsung, his choice.

However, I bought him a UPS to help protect his investment, Best Buy Geek Squad GS-15400U, 900 Watt, 1500 Joules surge protect, USB connect Auto Shutdown.

Later, I will get him a Gigabyte RAM-Disk and 4 GB memory for further performance enhancement; mostly for faster virtual memory support instead of using the slower hard drive.
