Until i spent 1k on a new PC which i built myself, now the case never gets opened, and im always careful about it.
The case on my PC never gets opened unless i upgrade it. Can't be bothered anymore; mess with them all day, not something i want to be doing at home too. At least now i get paid for doing something i would have just done at home though

My friend is a bit of a porno geek, he was playing his porn at full blast one night, and er, everyone heard, up in the flat upstairs from him
On another note, something rather good has come to light. My TV card is pickung up the top up tv channels without me having to subscribe to them. I will keep this quiet I think (P.S. I have not hacked anything either)....

my 2 pennies - if you're after a speaker setup and havnt got the cash for hifi surround gear then look at Acoustic Energy Aego's - looking at a pair myself to reduce stress on my studio monitors, and from reading there ment to be the muts nuts, which isnt hard as there hifi speakers are fantastic! Even What HiFi rated them, which is strange as you dont get many computer speakers reviewed in there! Worth looking into though!
Nice system spec though - though would have got the Hauppauge 1300 or PVR 350/500, as they have on-board mpeg compressers saving cpu usage
