So I got my new computer 95% up and running.

95% since 1 of the sticks of RAM is bad and needs to be RMA'ed.

With that said, I am the proud father of a 2.4 Core 2 Quad, 4 Gig of Ram (currently 2 Gig), 150 Gig 10,000 RPM primary, 500 Gig 7,200 secondary all running Windows Vista. The graphic card is a GeForce 8600GTS.

I have an Antec P182 Gun Metal Black case and it is SWEET! It took a bit to get everything correctly put in but it went from crap to perfect. I thought a long time ago when I did my 1st computer I did a good job wiring but with modular PSU's, SATA hard drives, and finally having room behind the case to run wires, there is actually very little to see.

I finally think my laptops (T42 and now my MacBook Pro) have been pushed aside for development. I'll post a pic of it sprawled out and finalized shortly.
