Wow! what a beast; just a few questions..

Have you had a structural engineer check the strength of your floorboards/joists?

Does it have an ice cube tray?

How many beers can you get in it?

Only teasing buddy , looks a nice clean piece of kit realy.

You might be able to put in 2 1200. Then you'll have a dual cpu machine

Nice beast

LOL! All I need now is some adult software

(I'm really boring.. I pretty much set them up, mess around on them and then leave them sitting on doing not much... I just like building up machines )
