Congratulations 58enfield!
One thing about bing out in the front, the only place to watch is your back. It's a target. ;)
Don't get too comfortable. :D

Yea, It finally happened. He was gaining pretty hard several months ago, then slacked off. This last run was tough. It took quite a bit of effort to resist buying and building new computers. I finally broke down and ordered a GPU capable video card last week. I only have one computer at the house that has a PCIe slot. Friday, when he was getting really close, I damn near got some more cards to 'upgrade' the office machines. When I was at FRY's tracking down an eSATA cable I had three Nvidia cards under my arm. I did come to me senses though.

I also priced several systems on newegg over the weekend too. I am amazed that I didn't pull the trigger on it, or the cards.
