Death metal or progressive metal. Nothing else compares.

hmmm, electronic, industrial, indie, punk, ska, metal, experimental, and all types of rock.

genres are meaningless really, just as long as the music is good i don't give a fuck what they call it.

There we go! Who cares what it's called, if it's awesome then it's awesome.

For you electronica and EBM guys and gals, check out www.digitalgunfire.com

Shirow is a dude I played WoW with and his site is aparently pretty popular among that crowd.

As for me, I am pretty eclectic in my taste.

I literally like a little bit of everything from metal to rap to county to classical with a sprinkling of God Rock in there.

I've got 2 computers that I'd like to set up to run a LAN coop game. One PC is fairly new is good enough to run L4D1 and 2 maxed out. The other one is an older Dell Dimension 4550 that isn't as great.

It's specs are:
3.06Ghz Pentium 4
2GB Ram
Stock 64mb video card

I know this PC's processor can handle L4D1 and I've definitely got enough RAM to run it. The only problem is my video card. The Dell 4550 has an AGP 4X slot for its video card. Can anyone recommend a cheap AGP card for this machine? I want something that can run the game at decent settings and won't make the campaign levels look too bright due to shader issues, like this:
shader issues
Thanks for any help.

You might want to try running l4d2 in a different directx compatibility mode before trying to get a different video card.

try adding -dxlevel 90 to the startup options. And maybe even -dxlevel 81
though I'm not sure if l4d2 can run in directx 8 mode.
