 Hahaha RRoD = Red Ring of Death.
But yeah my PC almost never crashes so I can't really relate there =P
But yeah I'll admit, if you want a good PC, you've gotta fork over some cash.

 I hang out with my 5mates at school, who all own 360s. 3 of them have red rings, 2 are getting them fixed by Microsoft but the others warranty is expired so he's getting a new one.

 HA! thats what you get for owning a superior pc!

 Man, one of my former buddies (reason coming soon) has a 360, PS3 and his brother has a Wii. He also owns a monster of a pc which has BSOD ALOT! He brags so much about how awesome his pc is and that mine still has "Shitty pixels", that he doesn´t give himself enough air to breathe! Whenever he got even the smallest problem with his pc he would completely flip, and whenever I get a major problem with my pc, I always fix it.

You pay big amounts, you get big troubles.

But on-topic, I prefer the pc, it´s a much better thing to play on if you like RTS´s and it only requires a simple restart to get rid of the BSOD, unlike a certain console out there which gets the RROD and needs to be away for like 2 months.

I only have a pc so of course I´m biased, but I just can´t live without my RTS games.

 Yeah it sucks about the RRoD for 360, its happened to me, but ive found that I get more problems with PC than console. Plus pc costs so much more if you want to play any new games. the 360 is the first time ive ever had a problem with consoles, where as ive had a lot of problems with computers in the past. That said, I prefer pc for most games.

^^This. I totally agree. But yeah valzar I'll admit I had it coming. I mean, that's the risk you take with pr0n i suppose o_O
lmao
Anyway, I'm thinking of reformatting, but I'm not sure if I should install XP or Vista (I have the option for either). What do you PC gamers recommend? I mean, I heard that XP used to get better performance, but now SP1 is out for Vista and I heard there's now little or no difference between the two in game performance.
