Woohoo indeed! It works, the world still turns and contains life (of sorts!). You'll be setting up your own custom PC company next...

It takes a lot of power to post pics of lolcats, I believe some even need speeds of <.00001 fps, huge figures! Only today are such CPU and GPU combinations available to the home enthusiast enabling them to post such pics. All other pics previous were posted by university or government supercomputers.

So the reason FK has built her rival to Fujitsu's K-computer purely to increase her post count.

And still she'll never catch up with the 'Buna

@all:

Yeah, it works, nothing has blown up (so far), but I have about 2 trillion files in Windows Updates that have to be downloaded and installed plus I'm still working on getting all my must-have programs on here.

I'd love to hang around and chat, but Windows Updates says I need to restart again.

I'm sure I will enjoy it a lot more when I actually have time to *play* on it... which should be soon since I think I'm done installing all the critical software and backups and Windows has finished updating everything it can for the time being.

But first I have to put back all the stuff I had to move in order to set the thing up, which is the real killer.

At least I finally got all the trash from the build - all the empty boxes and bags and whatnot I was saving just in case something clearly didn't work and had to be returned - gathered up and taken out to the dumpster. For a while there it looked like a Newegg warehouse had exploded in my living room.

Nothing like the smell of new electric devices warming up!
