No way, man.  I've heard too many horror stories from there.  I think I'll stick to either newegg.com, compugeeks.com or computersurplusoutlet.com

Nothing TOO substantial...if you've ever checked out my site, the listing of what hardware I'm using in this particular cab is on there.

If you haven't...it was a cheap PC CHIPS motherboard.  I'm guessing the PS and MoBo are toast.  Can't say anything about the other stuff, as I don't have any way to test the RAM now.  ATI video card replaced the S3 I was going to use.

No, the 486 is still here, and running like a top.  I don' think it'll ever die.  And, sadly, for now, it's the heart of my system.

For now.

DOOD why is it that women feel the need to clean crap constantly.  ANd witht he cleaning come them picking things up that aren't even int he way or are in a proper spot.  Ten they put them somewhere else and claim I don't remember or I didn't do it.  Christ sakes women sstop touching things.  Thats why my office at home i slocked LOL.  Anyway had to get that off my chest.

She was justified.  I've been using the dining room as my tech bay for some time.  We were having company over, so we needed the dining room.

I just can't believe it.  I've had that board since 1998.  It's performed flawlessly.  Now it's cracked.

Ah, well, as everyone's been saying, it's an excuse to get some faster hardware.  Although, with the games I want to play, I don't need anything faster.  Perhaps just a replacement board...a better one.  I've got a bid on eBay for an Asus P5-A.
