    G15 user eh? Those things always seem too big to me, I like the display so I bought a Pertelian, but I prefer my compact Saitek.

    I doubt it, it just so happens that me and creaky live in the UK. I'm sure there are equivalents, where are you from?

    ^The 4 blue circles at the top are actually the fan speed controls. It has 5 fans(6 if you include the one on the cpu heatsink).

    ^^The one with the 360^^

    ^is a shot from the side showing the clear window with a dragon etched into it being light up by 2 lights and the fans at the back.

    ^Tis a very dark shot of the terrible acer sa80 that I got for free last year. I will NEVER get another acer.
    As I said previously, sorry for the darkness, I will fix it later.


    Also forgot to mention that I have a 3rd pc. I just fixed it up the other weekend. Haven't bothered to set it up because I don't really have anywhere for it at the moment and it only has a 20gb hd in it. Going to have to fix that though some time.

    didn't really do that much for me either when I first got it...however now, I don't mid the case so much, because it is so heavy the kids can't push it over and the plates on the front are like armour plating & can be locked shut so the only thing they can mess with is the fan speed knobs. I also picked the entire pc up for $150AU and all I had to do was add a hard drive and install everything :)

    Nice stuff Bubba, your gathering quite the collection there. You'll be giving Creaky a run for his money soon.

    Going to be upgrading some of the parts in that pc with the dragon on it very shortly. Going to get 2 AOC 193FW+ - 19" Widescreen LCD Monitors, 1 LaCie d2 Ethernet Big Disk - 1TB, 1Gb of Ram. Then for the pos acer I might get 1 AOC 193FW+ - 19" Widescreen LCD Monitor.

    not just "that" acer...All acer's. This is the second one I have had. The first one I bought, when I had no clue about pc's, the second was a gift from my father. And both have been nothing but problems from the word go.
