    So, Dave, you never mentioned if you participated in Extreme Tech's fastest geek contest? Did you give it a go?

    I wanted to, but by the time I got to their booth they weren't accepting new sign ups until the next day, and I wasn't there the next day

    What I didnt' like is that they had the OS preinstalled...which of course makes sense because they had limited time, but it's not a true PC "build"...

    I think they should have copied all the CD information onto the hard drive, and forced installation from there. It'd take too long, but it'd be a LOT cooler that way...
