Well, my ppro 232 does q3 with 38 fps in 800x600. But it is ugly. I would
like to have a q3 power machine. Dual Xeon 800, 512 MB ram, GeForce would
be nice.

:-)

Seriously, what I miss most is probably some more diskspace. Or maybe a
DVD player, since I would like to own some more DVD movies.

Above all, ADSL is the most important, but that is ordered.

Lack of time makes the issue unimportant anyway - I am writing on my
thesis and are to become a father in 4 months, so ..

The underlying assumption is closer to "if you are hiding something, you
may have reason to be hiding something, and since we don't know what you're
hiding, we are therefore unable to trust you". *THAT* is why it's so
important that encryption methods be open, and known vulnerabilities be
listed.
