oh, and a PCI video card for Dalek, my desktop. that's another $100 - $200
should you have any of these items or compatible items laying around gathering dust, please, i'm begging. it will take me months to get all this together. i'm most concerned about Rose, but it would be nice to play spore on Dalek.
