    Is it a coincidence that your wifes pc is called Uranus?

    When I installed my first GTX275, I fired up the system and the nVidia Control Panel window opened:



    At the time, I thought it was some sort of driver error. I later found out that GPU heaven does in fact exist!

    I though it was a pretty cool photo myself...but no, I don't have any locally. I just linked to it from a site that came up on a google search ("nuke-u-lar power", IIRC)
