Sometimes, I get the shakes.

I have Gamer's Fever. After reading This Article about upcoming quad-core computer processors, and recalling my current woes of gaming performance (Annie's a good girl, but when a lot happens she tends to get tired), I'm thinking that an AnniePlus may be in the works within the next year or two. She'd probably only need a new motherboard to support the new processor, and I may get her some accessories to pretty her up a bit, but I'm currently fairly content with her sound and video, which are half of gaming anyways (RAM and Processor power being the other two). Depending on power-requirements, she may need a new power supply, too. And, of course, I'm still planning on cannibalizing Unicron's internals to boost Annie's current RAM and hard-disk space.

This is all true. Of course, They (don't ask me who, but I know Cryptic Games is involved) are developing a Physics Processing Unit (PPU) so that a Real Gaming Machine will have a nice Video Card, a PPU, and a lot of RAM (hee hee, Earnest Hemmingway). And right now, Annie's got a nice vid card and 1GB of RAM, and if I cannibalize Unicron she'll go up to 2GB (not to mention the extra 160GB of drive space.
