20 for 1 song project on hold for now due to........

Hi All,
My pentium 3 has crashed big time and is probably beyond a prudent, competative repair. It has been overworked for the 18 months it has been here in the recording studio and has used up its "b" life span. i am shopping a pentium 4 and looking at a new sony that has an 80 gig hard drive but also a memory strip and hotwire ports. That should be Memory Stick Media Slot and Firewire Ports. I am always open to any advice from anyone.
I am currently using my backup computer a Pentium 133 that is quite slow. Please don't send in any more songs for the 20 for 1 project until further notice. Please DO send me your email address to rebuild the list for this project. Hold on the addresses, as I have them all on backup cdroms, unless I got your address in the last 2 weeks then you best resend it to me. My last backup was about 2 weeks ago.
Thanks for your understanding. I will be monitoring the forum and email and shopping the new computer market. That is about it for now. Best to all,

advice... don't talk about memory strips or hotwire ports if you really mean memory sticks and firewire ports

TP, Thank you for that good advice.
The correct terminology is a Memory stick media slot and Fire Wire Ports.
Obviously I know nothing about either at this point but that is the point where people starts learning.
TP, as long as you are offering your advice kindly tell me why I would need either of the above as they do add cost. Thank you

in very basic terms, memory stick slot - camera or song player, firewire - video editing.
