    De'javu anyone? They had this before with an AMD FX-60, and the first couple comments were "I can build this better for $10K" "I'd buy a car instead" "Yay! Free t-shirt!"

    what the hell is a "supercharged intercooler"? I know what an intercooled supercharger is, on a car but on a PC...
    Microsoft's homepage can be found at: thesource-dot-ofallevil-dot-com - interesting, no?

    Think of something witty and imagine it here.

    Only an extreme music? I'd expect the fatility fps at least. They are probably making like $10k profit on that thing.
    <eMesreveR>Do "girls" ever appear outside the Internet? Can i randomly encounter them?
    <Aleph-One>I believe they are a fabrication. Most of the evidence would suggest that they were created in a studio during the Cold War to display our industrial superiority over the Soviet Union.

    Isn't the case made out of gold or something? That's why it's so pricey.

    Hell spend $1,000 and overclock it and you can have a better one.
    Or more realistically spend $10,000 have Quad 880, killer raid50 and a Free steak dinner
    Fast computers breed slow, lazy programmers
    The price of reliability is the pursuit of the utmost simplicity. It is a price which the very rich find most hard to pay.
