Power2U is the name of the thing, they're on sale for the holidays. $13ish.

Received a wireless N router to replace the G antique in prep for the HTPC to come upon its completion. Some Asus model that can be flashed to dd-wrt.

 

[ivanlabrie]

Great! That uber htpc thing will come to life soon I guess...

 

[hokiealumnus]

It's alive, just no case yet. Running oc'ed to 4.6GHz.

Just got a Nikon D5100 to replace my old Canon Powershot A620. Paid $334 for a new one, with lens.

Can't get pictures of it for obvious reasons (batteries in the Canon are dead).

Nice timing! I just got one myself via a nice forum deal. Asus RT-N66U (Here)

Waiting to get the antennas in, as the seller forgot to ship them.

I feel quite silly I didn't think of that.

This is perhaps the most amazing contraption I've seen today

New Htpc build, minus the case as that is just an empty box acting as a table hah.

 

[txus.palacios]

Man, if your "HTPC" is rocking a 680, what do you have in your desktop? NASA technology? Wow! Have fun with the build!

If I were you I'd return the CCFL and get some LEDs. Cheaper, greener, and they don't have those inverters that like to explode.

I just bought an old P4 duo 2.66GHz machine from a friend. It didn't age well, so I'm fixing it up right now. Case is nice for the period, though. Going to make it a server.

Not really sure why i even got them besides they were like 3 bucks on ebay. The 680 is from a friend whos psu took out cpu/mb on his rig, and i traded him one of my 2500k's and mobo for it. Figured with that i should be able to watch some HD youtube! Well and skyrim/bf3 lol.
