Thursday October 2nd, 2008
So I've finally got around to buying, and building myself a new workstation. This has been anticipated for a while. I'll cut right to the specs and then some pictures. I think everything should speak for itself. All hardware arrived 100% perfectly working, and I am extremely happy with the overall setup. The case is..well.... HUGE. It's a full tower - I'm afraid my desk will collapse beneath it.
