    everything looks nice

    espically that dvd burner, my mate got one the other day from overclockers uk and he says it's the best STG£50 he spent ever.

    i think i might get one.

    on another note, you havn't mentioned an o/s have you got one or have you just forgot?

    remember xp needs to be SP1 to see drives over 130 gigs.

    Well I placed the orders so its all on the way.
    I suppose it would be a good idea to look into to how you actually build it now.:D Any links to good diy sites would be greatly appreciated.
