Sorry - I Posted a "double hit" on this one! Hi Brink,
Sorry, but I didn't see that you already had this info, Love Texas BTW, have relatives in downtown Dallas near Fort Worth.
We once took a holiday there, and drove an RV down to Florida and the Gulf Coast (Panama City Beach), and Orlando Via Louisiana, and Alabama, great month that was.
Shame on BP for ruining the beloved Shell Island area, but I do laugh at this silly youtube video (hope it doesnt offend). YouTube - BP Spills Coffee
Also, see youre a Technet subscriber, I am too, and a Beta Tester for new MS products.
Can't say too much about it, but my company ( Kontron UK), builds a huge inventory of embedded components for a variety of military and government plus private industries , one of our customers is predominately involved in Flight simulation and training, and recieves A3xxx Airbus training equipment from us, would love to have a go in one of these (must be the ultimate "big boys toy" - I believe the sultan of Brunai has one at his palace).
Awsome system specs btw - I'm so into my "Pocket Rocket" diesel car, that I couldn't afford an I7 just yet, but I will upgrade someday
