There's probably about $20K+ in that rig right now.....If you had to buy everything new that is comparable to what is in the system now, it would be about 4 times that amount. The racks and hardware associated with them are the biggest expense.......

And it is safe to say Ai, he has no life either. You don't have a computer like that AND have a life... just doesn't work...hehe

 

[julks]

I would change those monitors...
Why didn't that guy spent more on some awasome 18.1" LCD monitor? Or maybe a Sony 24" FD Trinitron???

 

[svtcobra]

Im surprised to see all the IBM GXP 75's in there. Those drives dont have the best track record.

This pic is kinda dated, I saw it awhile ago, he probably doesn't have IBM's in it anymore.

 

[svtcobra]

Well, he choose to build the machines with them..Even when they came out they were bad drives.

 

[PHATMAN5050]

i want to see him try and open that window! lol Anyways, that setup is CRAZY and it must heat that room in the winter...

 

[Phantasm66]

I originally posted that chappie there with the Death Star back when we still had the original forum software before the change.

I even have an e-mail from him which I will try to find.

Basically he explains that he was lucky enough to find a few of the racks and stuff in a dumpster.....

One man's booger is another man's treasure....

Interestingly enough there is a photograph of the guy himself on another forum site and he looks little like the Emperor as well....

(No offence if you happen to be reading this....)

 

[Ai Hate]

It is alive!!!!

hehe. he reminds me of Phantasm66

Thanks for the system specs Ai! That computer or computers or whatever it is, is absolutely unbelievable. I can't even begin to imagine putting that much money into a computer. It must be nice to have money to do whatever you want to with it.

Also, the IBM drives don't have the best track record I agree, but I've had my two 75's for a while now with no problems. Plus, with the cooling he probably has, I doubt he'll have a problem with them.

You know Super, you just jink'sed yourself by saying you haven't had any problems. I suggest you just go out tonight and buy replacement drives.

 

[SuperCheetah]

You are more than likely right boeing. Oh well, less money to spend on the girlfriend.

 

[Didou]

I should pay that guy a visit. I've bought quite a few CDs lately, I wouldn't mind ripping them all in half an hour
