sobriqueIt's bad when I start looking at computer upgrades, and think about it in the same sort of setting as 'hmm, I _could_ get that on my credit card...'
You see, I've seen these:
The Tyan Thunder K8 Quad ($500)
Opteron 850 processors ($1500 ish each, provided you buy in multiples of 1000)
And of course, then you start thinking about the prices for 32Gb of DDR3200 memory, and 4 way 160Gb SATA drives...
This could get expensive. But it would mean _the_ ninja bastard system of all time.
Well, at least until the next big new tech...
