Anyways Microsoft is being way to cocky with windows 7. Way too many cracks when it first came out. Beta's were better IMO

Gotta hustle lol. I get deals on everything and I spent less than what most spend on best buy over the counter comps.

http://www.pricewatch.com

I got a few deals there bought the GFX cards used cheap and i had the watercool system from my old setup that I sold last year.

I buy parts build em for cheap and end up getting rid of them and making money on em lol.

The only comp I have ever kept was the first one I build an old P4 h/t 4 gigs soon to be nitrogen cooled lol

Here's mine. Nothing special really, I love the new Super Duty though. My laptop has a full HD screen so it's kind of tough to find backgrounds that are full HD as well. I've run through all the Mustang backgrounds I could find so now it's on to trucks.

Computer is an HP HDX 16 Premium Laptop. Running 4GB of RAM on Vista Premium (Windows 7 upgrade is on the way) and an Intel Core 2 Duo at 2.13GHz. My favorite thing about it is the Blu-Ray player and the 1080p screen.

I used this link.
http://www.techspot.com/guides/196-recycle-bin-on-windows-7-taskbar/

A lot of places have ones that aren't functional, but this one allows you to drag things directly to the icon on the taskbar.
