The machine has six USB 2.0 ports (two in the front, four in the year), one eSATA port, and two IEEE 1394a ports (one in the front, one in the rear).

one in the year? lets get the spelling right.

The typo has been fixed.

So, they bought up defective 9500's to save you money?? LOL!

9500's are a good deal. You shouldn't ever have an issue with them.
Similar to the early Intel Pentiums having defects which were modified so the defective parts were no longer used at a performance hit and thus the Celeron was born. AMD has had a much better track record than Intel had when relating to problems with the CPU chip assemblies, so this is not going to be much of an issue. You can get more work done on average with the AMD quad core over using the Dual core Intel, but if you want more power savings, I would suggest using the Intel.

I have a gateway lx6200 and I'd like to OC it, but the bios doesn't seem to have that ability, or am I just not seeing it?

I'd also like to know if it's possible to upgrade the CPU to something better?

I have been trying for a couple days to get my s-video to work with a sony bravia. I installed updated drivers for the ati 3200 radeon video, nothing works. The computer refuses to connect.

The ironic part is that I have a gateway 510 running xp, and when I boot that, the screen automatically goes to the tv, can I put the board from that in the Lx 6200 or is there a fix for the 3200 and the svideo on the 6200 LX
