        Holly .... errrrr ... you know what... This thing SCREAMS! I have never seen a system so fast and it rocks pulling up task manager and seeing 8 (yes that is an eight!) CPU graphs :) 8 fans and it is still softer sounding than my last P4 desktop. I will be spending the next week gettin' the place all comfy and setup but it is going to be worth it. Time to fill up that 800 Gigs of HD space and 4Gig or RAM with VS.NET :)

                      Systems like that, and at that price, don't come branded... He build that puppy. And I think it will reboot just fine. J

                              What kind of mobo does it have? I looked at some of thier lower end barebones systems, and the boards they used were outright nasty.

                                  Supermicro X7DVL-E[^] The only thing that I really don't like right now is that it does not have any x16 PCIe slots so I have to use PCI video cards.

                                        That car rocks! I have never driven a more solid feeling auto. I would like to have a bit more HP but for the price she is VERY worth it. I have had people driving BMW speedsters tell me that they feel they got ripped off because of what they paid :)

                                          I plan on activating hardware vitalization and playing around with VPC for that reason.

                                          You'll need Virtual PC 2007 Beta or Virtual Server 2005 R2 SP1 Beta 2 for hardware virtualization to have any effect. Also, it still doesn't emulate a DirectX 9.0-compatible video card so you won't get Glass. To get the Virtual Machine Additions for Vista RCs, you need to sign up for the Virtual Server 2005 R2 SP1 Beta at connect.microsoft.com[^].
