Girlfriend needed a new monitor, so we went to BestBuy and picked up this. It's been excellent so far, almost plays as smoothly as a CRT.

Well everything is tweaked as far as it will go I think. Quad is stable at 3.6GHz @ 1.4V @ 60°C load. The e5200 is limited by my mobo, damn thing doesn't seem to want to go over 1120FSB. I'm Currently testing with linpack @ 3.5GHz @ 1.3V @ 50°C. Looking good so far.

I do. I'm always low on space.
once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

After days of thinking about it, purchased this today, and max'ed it out (apart from HD space)
Had previously ordered from Rock, but cancelled that.

Overpriced, but I don't care, they're the most reliable, and great customer service.
Cancelled today, because they are the worst company I have ever dealt with, should have listened to people telling me not to use them. (kept extending my delivery date, running out of stock etc. etc.) and CS were afwul.

Oh well, I will order from kobalt computers tomorrow, maxing it out ofcourse ...only reason I didnt in the first place was because alienware had a buy now pay in 12 month option, which is really tempting in the current climate.

Yeah, I travel a lot these days as part of my work, so its a replacement desktop...so I can game/do whatever the hell i need to do in my hotel room, or whatever lol.

I here the battery will last little over an hour lol, but it's designed to not overheat, so that's all I'm worried about.

Pics when I get gooners....about 10 days

Basically I made an order middle of last spetember, was meant to have it by the 13th of this month...they kept messing me around, one day missing the graphics card, next day screen is out of stock....and they kept lying to me.

Then yesterday gave me a date of the 10th of november...I'm leaving the country on the 7th, so that was a no go.

The customer service (by phone) was shameful, only after i had placed the order ofcourse.

I take it you're in the states? I here the Alienware service ther is slightly better.

But if you're planning on paying straight up, may as well buy from Sager....much better spec for the same price.

Just got 2 PNY 4GB Flash Drives and a full set of ink cartridges for my printer.

I'd get a picture of the PNY drives, but there's nothing on the googlewebs...
There's plenty of PNY drives, but not the ones I have, they're all black with a cool red squiggle on them.

Edit: And looked at an ASUS EEE PC, the 901 ones. Again. It's manageable, actually... (17, no job, so shush.)
