    Pffft, water cooling is just a fad, you can get the same results with proper fan/ case cooling... :rolleyes:

    Not really.

    Mister "over a gig of ram" gee, that would make you a nerd five years ago.

    I'll be up to sixteen in my post burning man upgrade.

    Water has more thermal mass than air, the thermal efficiency of a water cooling system is higher.

    I mean I COULD waste fifty more bucks on a bigger power supply to compensate for some kind of whack problem, but I don't need to.

    btw, my netbook?

    has over a gig of ram....

    OMGZORZ (it can run solidworks...)

    has linux (I'm playing with a few different distros to find the one I like best for it, may keep you posted, don't post often here anymore though) and windows seven, I needed seven for work, and needed linux for sanity (matlab runs much faster on it)

    Hi Dave,

    I'm a Unix guy in a windows shop. Sometimes customers dial the wrong number and instead of a windows guy they get me on the phone. Usually they want to tell me about their windows problems. Then I have to explain them that I live in an alternate reality ;). Sometimes this is really funny.

    Regards
    Gyro

    Even cyber guys get STDs :rofl:

    Nah its not that though, just not enough space on my hd, a few general mechanical faults, multiple spillings-of-things-on, droppings, dodgy plug, and it crashes if its left for more than 30 minutes, internet stalls regularly if I have more than two tabs open too.

    Im impressed with the amount of things its been through to be honest :D

    Well I used to have a piece of shit compaq presario laptop then that died and now I have a hp desktop which I love but I hate windows vista with a passion and I'm stuck with it. But anywho my old lady has a toshiba satelite I think 5500 series, its so kick ass and has a 17" screen. Hopefully after I get my BA degree I can reward myself with a laptop as well.

    Two custom desktops.

    I would only buy a brand if I was getting a laptop - and you don't get too much of a choice not to there =P
