Andrew,
     I have had my Cube since they were first shipping. The only  
thing I have done is maxed out the memory and put in a 120gig drive - 
when they were first introduced and expensive. If you are just using  
her as web surfing and email you do not need to replace the video  
card. I do the same thing with mine and use Photoshop when I need to  
when receiving layouts or images from friends and clients. I never  
have had a problem. Plus since she is so small, I have been known to  
use her to shoot into when my main computer broke down. Unless speed  
is utmost important, why change a good thing?
