Thats tight!!!! Too bad vapo chill cases are like 800$ alone. I've always dreamed of 3 LCDs in that setup, never knew you could get it like that. Then in UT, i'd never have to turn with my mouse - Just look to the left Humm, maybe i'll need 3 more, so I can look up

Get me that, and pretty soon I'll be able to make good on my plan to take over the world!

I don't think I could build a better machine than that if I tried! Its truly lovely, and if I EVER DID EVER AGAIN BUY A PRE-BUILT MACHINE THAT WOULD BE IT!

Well, if I could AFFORD it, that is.... I notice that the price tag seems conspicuous by its abscence.... Unless I've glossed over it....

In UK, I don't know for sure, but I would imagine that you would more or less just switch $$$ for £££ - making even the baby one £4,000 or so.

That's not really as scarey as you might think, I've bought lots of servers at work for this kind of price, and above. I've procured a high performance cluster worth £150,000 (albeit a once off) so its not scarey, just expensive.

Those machines have SO MUCH. I don't think there's much you could ask for more in a PC.

If we were to have an ULTIMATE PC poll, I think that baby would win.

Maybe TS could offer it as a prize? :=).

Ok, I've just woken up. Still it was a nice dream.
