Downloading now, will have to listen after work.

I liked the Audacity interview alot. I haven't really used the software yet, but I might give it a try sometime soon. That was really interesting to hear about Dominic and Audacity.

News was good...HP's computer sounds absolutely insane!
I just wonder how the WCing will be...like if it's a quality setup or just something that does the job. I've always wondered about WCing in retail computers.

My sound quality is kinda iffy. It sounds a lot like the internet connection. I dunno why I kept getting louder and quieter though. Oh well, hope everyone liked that section.

Also my avatar is NOT me, it's Boris from Goldeneye.

Audacity is good stuff

Listening now.

Great show!

nice

*listening*

Interestingly enough, Boris from Goldeneye was who inspired my username...

lol

Putting you computer in a toaster oven!

I'm about to leave on a weekend business trip... I expect to see some ideas posted when I return!

I just want to add my PSU comment was a tad off.

Reason I said it was because I am still seeing alot of PSUs with similar wattage (500w) today as I did when I got my computer. Although, I have heard that my Blue Storm is actually 400w and they label it 500w. Whatever.

How about a tools of the trade for modding and also liquid and extreme forms of cooling?
