Omg I was beaten really bad! You just wait till I get enough money for 2 gtx 295s and that i7 extreme edition. But by then I am shure something better will be out
In a strange twist if I pool all my various money storage locations (bank accounts, piggy banks, couch cushions, etc) I could probably buy a really nice computer. with all the latest new stuff. Of course I would then have to subsist on cheap licorice for two weeks. Also- I find it more rewarding to save up and thus have no real impact on my day to day.
and- did I say 172.5?
silly me, I must have inadvertently added the decimal and forgotten the zero! it was really 17250!
*realizes how unbelievable the story is, so tries to add a realistic perspective...*
Also, it was built by polar bears!
