I am looking forward to playing the full version of L4D2.
It is fun so far.

In my opinion the demo could be better, but I think they are just showcasing the game. I will be playing tomorrow night. :)

I intended on playing but don't know if I'll be able to. Apparently the graphics card in my mother-in-laws computer isn't good enough to support the game. I'm going to try out the demo on here again tonight with all low settings and see if it's any better.

I was on my computer which kicks this once bootay! This one has the following:

Intel Quad Q6600
3 Gb Unknown speed RAM
128 Mb DDR2 Geforce 8300 GPU

Mine:

AMD Quad 9650 Black Edition
4 Gb 6400 (I think) RAM
GeForce 8600GT GPU

This computer will outdo mine on processing power but lacks everywhere else. I think I'm going to put Vista on it tonight and see if that makes a difference but I doubt it. I'm going to laugh if I install 64-bit Vista and all of a sudden it has 4 Gb+ of RAM. Haven't actually looked at the sticks to check.

Just switch the video cards...and use the one with the Intel Quad Q6600 (which i think is better than the AMD Quad 9650 Black Edition possessor right? )

Your right about the Intel CPU being better, problem is, my computer is in Virginia and my mother-in-law lives in North Carolina, where I'll be until Nov 27th.

If your going to get the i9 and those two kick butt GPU's, you might as well go ahead and get a SSD (solid state drive) to load your OS and programs onto and use your 1.5 Tb SATA (I'm guessing it's SATA) for file storage (i.e. your entire My Documents folder).

No, your current HDD will definitely work but if your trying to get that much performance out of your system with a new CPU (specifically the i9) and some kick butt GPU's, you should also get a kick butt SSD. You'll be bottlenecking yourself with overall system performance by using a standard SATA HDD.
