So for the first time in many years I bought a new PC for home use.

Didn't go with a Mac (I'll save that for when its time to upgrade my Powerbook) because they're too expensive. Instead I went the DIY route and am going to use a few of my existing parts for this rig - only cost $1200 total (a far cry from the nearly $2K I was going to spend on a new Mac).

Nevertheless - cant wait! :woohoo:

edit: Oh and if anyone wants to know the specs here they are:

Case: Antec 900 Black Steel
Power Supply: Ultra 850 Watt ATX Modular
Motherboard: Asus P6T LGA 1366
CPU: Intel Core i7 920 2.66 GHz CPU
RAM: 12GB Corsair DDR3 1333MHz Tri-Channel
HD 1: Western Digital Caviar Blue 320GB SATA-II
HD 2: Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB SATA-II
DVD: Plextor PX-755SA (already have)
Video Card: Sapphire Radeon HD 4670 1GB (already have - will be upgrading when Windows 7 is out)
Monitor: Acer H243H 24" High-definition LCD monitor
Operating System: Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit OEM
