...describes the my feelings upon receipt of my new PC. My previous computer's motherboard self destructed a fortnight afore yuletide, rendering me PC-less over the festive period. Bummer! Fortunately the information within the hard-drive was recoverable despite it being unable to boot up. Thank the Lord for the Integral External Hard Drive Enclosure Caddy!
All pictured here except the RAM, which came the next day. This is the ninth computer I've been able to build and I love doing it. Can't wait until Dave's ready for an upgrade so I can build him a new one.

As you can see it is not exactly "stealth". I need to do some work on making it look more pleasing to the eye.

I had to share this photo. I had the idea to try copper gas tubing as a radiator. I didn't want to go through the trouble of making it look pretty until I knew that it worked. I purchased about 20 feet of small copper tubing from a local hardware store. I used a small 15 watt submerged aquarium pump to move the oil through the tubing and back into the aquarium. It helped, but only very slightly. The copper tubing became quite hot when the computer was under load. In the end, it was not effective enough and the 3/8" diameter of the tubing proved to be too narrow.
The Mac Computer Expo was held in Petaluma, CA on October 6, 2012. Leo Laporte, the host of TWiT.tv and a Petaluma local, gave a tour to the vendors and speakers of the Expo. I was there for my second time as a speaker, this time on Reputation Management. We first had dinner at Cucina Paradiso then walked to the TWiT studios. It's a tv studio and a technology museum. #geekout iamsonomacounty.wordpress.com/2013/01/07/twit-tv-studio-t...
