FreeJet:
If you don't want me to post them anymore, just let me know.

 

Oh no, you just keep right on posting.

I also love your posts and look forward to seeing them.

Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live.

Don't worry about it FreeJet. That happened to me a while ago too. I contacted Marco when it happened and he assured me I wasn't being moderated or anything. I think I was trying to post a link as well. Just post your message without the link then "edit" to add the link after (Like eunoia mentioned)  :D

Here you go.  If you have some inputs about Memory Design, check this out.  Change to win 8GB of RAM and an SSD.

FreeJet is the new slugbug!

Congrats! I know I'm playing this year, but have yet to get in the game!

Let us know how those TT mice work out, I got a TT Black as a gift and it didn't last very long! The keyboard's still taking a pounding....

Got my SSD today and its FIRST prize! :D 480GB.

Now i have a dilemma on my hands :/ lol. Im debating if i should sell the SSD to fund my wants of getting the surface pro when it comes out, sell it and keep the cash or use it(but i won't be putting it to any good use in college). What do u guys think i should do?

Score!!!

I made a rule for myself that I've managed to respect since way back (way back when I actually used to win stuff...): Whatever wins go straight into the rig or if sold the entire sale value (usually more) goes straight into tech.  If it were me I'd keep the SSD because this is something that I'd buy and a helluva needed upgrade. I can respect that contest wins aren't always the perfect fit, so there's no shame if you sell it to subsidize more tech, but I won't comment on the surface pro. Big Smile

Nice win, thanks for the update!
