Wow...just, wow!

Recycling FTW! Very nicely done.

I neglected to label my M-Audio Audio Buddy, Red Sox Coaster, HALO Mega Bloks, Bottle of TUMS, toothpicks and the Windows Home server hidden behind my busted Koolance case. Building a new desk so once it is done hopefully it wont be as messy, though probably as random.

Terrible picture terribly edited but my set up a few days ago. Changes are in the works.

It is a straight swap. I handed them my old board (Which I got for $99 on sale at the same time as my processor and it is $110 now after rebate) and got the new board. I just "bought" it through the site so I could go to customer service and they would have it waiting for me. I didn't pay a...

I saw on their site last week that you just "buy" a replacement board for 18 minute pick up and bring your old board and receipt. When I went to pick it up the girl was confused until I explained about the series 6 chipset and then she said "Oh, the recall!" so mentioning that may save you some...

Intel 8088 4.77 MHz AMD K6-2 400 MHz AMD Athlon 1.1 GHz Intel Pentium 4 2.4C AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ 2.4 GHz Intel i5-2500k

I bought a Gigabyte P67-UD3 board, i5-2500k and 4 gigs of inexpensive crucial RAM from Microcenter and even after tax it came out $60 or $70 cheaper than the exact same parts from Newegg, not counting their shipping.

Well I went and bought a 2500k and Gigabyte P67 board. So no more AMD for me for the moment.

Hemming and hawing about holding out for this (which I am a little short of funds for) or going with the AMD 1055T. I live 5 minutes from Microcenter so both are deals. Either way I gotta upgrade this x2 4600 I've been riding for a few years now.

I think the arcade trade is a good deal just because of the recent Target deal and the inevitable CL flood of arcades. You might do better selling the wirless adapter and harddrive on CL.

I rather hear nothing and be pleasantly surprised when it does ship rather than hype and empty promises. That is the stark difference between Ep. 3 and DNF or any other vaporware. There haven't been a bunch of teaser screenshots and promised features that have never materialized. Yes, they are...

In what I am sure wont be a popular comment, I really hope Obama works faster. I can't seem to find an anti-gun smiley...
