    New toys!

    Woohoo ... just was given a T-Bird 1000mhz with 256mb of PC2100 memory and an ASUS motherboard. I'm going to go buy a new case and cobble together a new gaming system around that and my GeForce 3 this weekend.

    Lots of fun. It will replace this PIII 733 (but I am keeping that one as a beater system for downloads and Office software). I am going to optimize the T-Bird for gaming. Any advice, guys?

    I also just got Wolfenstein and have been playing it a LOT. It is a very cool game.

    Anyone else have it yet? What do you think?

    Cool! I've been "blueprinting" the next "Husted Power PC"

    ASUS P4T-E
    P4 - 1.9GHz microPGA 478
    2 X 256MB PC800 RIMMs
    IBM 60 GXP 60GB Hard drive (2 if I decide to go RAID with a promise card)
    Geforce 3 Titanium Ti500
    Soundblaster Audigy Platinum
    3com Etherlink 10/100 3CR990-TX-97

    Still haven't decided on a case yet. I like 3dcool.com Tornado's, but I really want to mod my own case this time.
