Me section:
I'm approaching 30, have two young kids, work as an auto mechanic (for 22 years...), and don't have nearly enough time to do what i really enjoy doing.
Computer wise i built 'em professionally from 96 to 2000 or so, before getting fed up with explaining to people that just paid me $3k for a new system that Yes, Windows 98 Crashes. Always. There is nothing that I, or anyone else, can do about it.


Moving right along, current box contains:

e5200@whatever pleases me this week cooled with a xig. 1283.
P5Q Pro mobo w/ketmod bios.
2x2gb G.Skill Pi Black 800-4-4-4-12
Asus 4890TOP.
Couple of WD 500gb blue drives.
Silverstone Strider 1kw psu (little bit overkill).
LG dvdthing.
Case from 2002 or so.


What i really enjoy computer wise though, is this:

(Squashed the poor middle cap, that's what caused the bad mount. Still works though!)


As y'all may note, i'm an OCF guy right now, but i'm branching out forum wise and seriously considering changing teams as well.
