However, depending on the manufacturer, a hard drive could go kaput within a year. I've heard plenty of horror stories about one certain manufacturer (Seagate) having poor HDD's which have regularly stopped working after as little as 2 weeks.
Exactly. The only HDDs that failed on me were Maxtors and Seagates, which are the same thing.

Its a desktop, HDDs dont break down unless you really do something odd with your PC. Rule of thumb from someone who is partially responsible for data integrity on ~200 Minecraft servers: never ever trust HDDs, always act as if they could all break down in 5 minutes. Have a solid backup plan, be it off-site backups over the internet, a RAID1 configuration, an auto-synced NAS or even burning to CDs. Never store your important data in just one place.

Any corruption to the DL? Ay errors in running? lol no. a) When installing the game from a CD, the files' integrity is checked. b) When unpacking an archive downloaded from the internet, its' integrity is checked.

lol unity being a "wicked program" - good luck creating anything useful without any programming skill whatsoever.

How were you able to reflect sentry missiles without getting killed by the bullets? o_O You need to hide out of the sentry's view. Then, pop out for a second. The sentry shoots out missiles, starts shooting bullets. Then it stops shooting bullets, since you're already out of its field of view. Meanwhile, the missiles are still traveling towards you. Once you feel that they're close enough to be reflected, pop out, airblast, then hide again. If everything goes well, you should hear a bang :P.

If you want an object to be unaffected by gravity, set its mass to 0.

Map render from my not-so-impressive 5-man SMP server after a month of it being up.

Backburner pyro 4 eva. Learn how to use the airblast on the backburner / degreaser. Suddenly, playing Pyro becomes 100 times more awesome. Pushing heavy-medic pairs of a cliff right before they pop uber? Check. Reflecting rockets right in the face of the soldier who fired them? Check. Pushing stickies back at the demo who shot them, right before he detonates them? Check. Lighting someone on fire, juggling him in the air for a while (just to piss him off), axtinguishing him? Check. Pushing a medic back from a heavy when ubered, destroying the heavy and seeing at the insults on the chat directed towards you? Check. Destroying a sentry by reflecting its missiles? Check. Reflecting a huntsman arrow right through the head of another enemy? Check (I only managed to do it twice, though). Hearing "Watch out for that pyro, he knows how to reflect" and "God damn stop shooting rockets at that pyro" on alltalk servers? Check. Reflecting a soldier's crocket into his team, killing 5 players? Check, check, check. tl;dr the backburner is for n00bs

No, there are no cons. Although you should really look into SATA drives if your motherboard supports it.

Eh, any AMD/ATI Radeon or NVidia Gefore based card will be okay.

Yes, you have the adapter, but the resolution still might not look right, especially if you somehow got a VGA widescreen monitor trying to play a non wide screen game.
Eh? I've been using those forever, never had any problem with resolution. Your problems may arise from the screen not reporting its supported display modes to the computer correctly - probably the same would have happened with a 'VGA version' of the same card. (FYI, the DVI->VGA adaptors are completely passive - they just expose the analog lines of the DVI socket in the card)

Next, check your monitor to see what kind of plug you have. If it is using the really old VGA format, new video cards will not work. Usually, all cards are shipped with DVI->VGA adaptors, and if not, you can acquire one for ~$3.

Usually, just connecting your monitor to the new graphics card should do the trick.
If you want to do it 'properly', or the first way doesn't work, remove your graphics drivers for the onboard GPU, reboot your computer and in the BIOS settings set your 'gfx preference' (name may vary depending on the manufacturer of your motherboard) to PCIe/AGP/whatever.

Toyotas are not THAT bad, at least here in Europe (I've seen people drive a same one for ~7 years, and they were in excellent shape). Maybe you get lower-quality builds (IIRC the ones sold in Europe are assembled in the EU). But yeah, their marketing idea is pretty awful, IMVHO. Keep Japanese memetics in Japan.

Second pink is better pink.
