If money were no object...

[B.E.E.F.]

Let me also clarify about the optical drives. The Buffalo DVSM-XL516FB is the actual drive that with different brand labels was sold as the Pioneer DVR-111, DVR-111D, DVR-111L, DVR-A11XL, and the Asus 1608P3S. I picked it because it supports LabelFlash, and the LG GGW-H20L drive I picked can support LightScribe, which keeps me covered on BOTH drive-based labeling mechanisms.

I use a cutting edge labeling system. It's ergonomic, uses any media, and its got top of the line performance.

I have a lot of zip disks too, hence the inclusion of an internal Zip Drive. (Probably external 750 plus internal 250)

Koolance PSU is rated for 1300 watts output on a 115V outlet and 1700 watts on a 230V outlet. I'd be hooking it up to a dedicated 230V circuit breaker, plus one circuit breaker each for the phase-change cooler and monitor and watercooling systems (the watercooling pump and radiator fans will be on their own power supply separate from the PC)

My PC would be powered by hundreds of hamsters. Fresh, live power produced at home is where its at. None of this pre-packaged generic electricity everyone else has.
