    Got my 1.1GHz Athalon built with no problems (there's a first smile.gif)

    So I left it running for 3 hours while diagnostics ran on the machine.

    The machine changed the room temperture of my apartment by 10F !!! Went from just 70 to near 80. Considering it's snowing outside and the heating isn't on that's pretty impressive smile.gif

    Actually here's something that p1sses me off with Sony.

    I bought a brand new PS1 over a year ago for $99. So how the **** can they sell a PS1 in a new case for the exact same price? Tight fisted gits.

    I bought a brand new PS1 five years ago for £300. So how the **** can they sell a PS2 playing slightly updated versions of PS1 games for £80 more?

    CPU is fine (checked it's temperture), it's just heating up the room.
