My New "PC"

FaultyWarrior

EDIT: Posting fail...hit post before link!  Sorry!

 

I light of the FAP Tech Quickie (apparently it wasn't a Fast As Possible) episode last night that was on the subject, I thought it'd be amusing to post a pic of the new "PC" I acquired last night. xD

What did I just read.......

Want to know which mobo to get?

Spoiler

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

lol.  I got it on ebay.  I'd been keeping an eye out for one for a few months, and this one happened to pop up Monday.  Sprung on it after confirming that it worked; unlike all of the others I'd looked at.

Yeah, I remember Linus referencing as FAP at some point on his own calendar.

 

see here at 4:46 in:

 

Either way, it wasn't a Fast As Possible anyways; so I was wrong on 2 fronts.

No, sorry - it's staying black.  Although maybe @dbrandSkins can make me a blue skin? xD

 

I have thought about throwing an RGB LED strip on in the inside of the front door. :D
