Kick ass dude.  It's even better functioning than I thought.  e-SATA on the front is just the best, plus firewire and a million USBs!

And it continues to look even more frickin awesome by every new pic.  Dang, every contest gets more so excited.  Now I'm twitching like a crazy man drooling over this one!  Here's hoping!Beer

Thanks for the new PICS, BigWop, especially the one of the interior. Painting the inside black really made the hardware pop! I think I'll try that on my next build.

I might just have a heart attack if I don't win this contest.   I'm holding my breath now.

too bad the winner isnt randomly selected in some type of drawing. I cant deal with being on the boards 24 hours a day. I got more important things to do like work on preparing for surgery coming up in august.

Heya Bri,  

No one has to be on the boards 24 hours a day.... maybe just 23.5 hrs/day?   Big Smile  Kidding... You'll all know soon enough I assure you!  Cool

You are going through surgery this coming August? I hope everything is well and that the surgery will be a success. 

It is good to see you have your priorities straight. Also, I'm sure HotHardware will have another amazing contest by the time you get out of surgery. HotHardware isn't going anywhere. We'll be waiting for you. 

If you think you can’t do something, you’ll never be able to do it. No matter how easy it is.

 yeah good luck every one. :-) hopefully i'll win but with my luck if i win it, it will explode or something.
and brian what type of surgery do you need? i think i need surgery for my shoulder... its unstable to say the least... very very iritating to have your shoulder pop out spontanously.

Oh, God, I'm having palpitations.  It's the big one, Elizabeth!  Get me that rig.  I need it to restart my heart.  I think I may need a tranquilizer too.   Get that rig and set it right on my chest!   Broken Heart
