    lol nah if I wanted a custom built Id buy the parts myself and do it. But I couldnt even get the parts for that price with my wholesale accounts. Picked that up at compusa. HP MediaCenter m1072n. I hate buying name brand but since I couldnt even touch the parts for that price I said what the hell.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Well I finally got the new computer hooked up. Man was it worth the money. This thing screams compared to my other computers. Not to mention I love the FM radio tuner and Video recorder and tuner. Makes recording tv shows for editiing easy as can be. And did I mention it is fast as hell. But I think Im gonna add another gig of ram soon. Just for good measure. If anyone is looking at a good multimedia pc I would recommend the HP Media Center PC's. Which is saying alot considering for the last 10 years I have only owned custom built desktops (I am severly anti big-box computers).
