Some serious hardware there!

Can you say SSD Heaven ?

Not if you had to pay for it!

Good Point but Geezus this guy would be Dangerous if we had a build off

I would have to forfeit my place due to lack of Buying power lol

Doing serious work like CAD and intense Video editing then the SSD's, ram and processor will pay form themselves many times over in time savings. Somehow I can't justify such a rig for Word, Excel, ACT and Photoshop ! lol
It's an amazing rig that I'm sure must be a joy to operate.

A Guy

The speakers arrived this morning so my new multimedia centre is complete. Must get the cabling sorted tho'

nice 1 Prospero. Thats a proper minin media center. Sorted!

Very cool Prospero!

Looks good Prospero.

It's truly amazing. The whole cost of the rig came to around £150; I use the speakers (under £10) when watching stuff on a monitor through a HDMI to DVI-D cable. It drives our 40" plasma TV beautifully through HDMI. You can get a cheap HDMI to VGA converter box for a couple of quid, so I can't think of any good reason for this product to be made available to poorer countries displaying through older monitors. I'm running Linux and XBMC on separate SD cards. Next step will be to get Python installed and learn some new programming.

Yes but can you get a led or cold cathode kit to install in that case for bling?

Hi Linnemeyerhere, or can I call you Linne? Not sure what you're suggesting but I'd love to know. The only real problem with the Pi, apart from its boot time, is getting a decent display under Raspbian on a modern monitor.
Amazes me, I bought a state-of-the art Packard Bell 14 years ago: 700MHz Pentium, 256Mb Ram, 128Mb GPU; this little beauty has that and more!
