It’s been a few days since my last post but that hasn’t been intentional. I’ve been working so hard the last week and a half that almost every night I’ve crawled straight into bed after I got home. Working these 12 – 16 hour days were starting to take it’s toll so I’m relieved the weekend has come.
Anyways as I mentioned in an earlier post that I was planning to build a gaming rig in the coming months but after some reflection I have decided to put that on hold indefinitely. I wanted it ready by the time Diablo III & Starcraft II were released but right now to splash out on such an expensive piece of hardware doesn’t make sense. I hardly have time to play my PS3 which has numerous titles on the way for the winter season I might add. So spending a couple thousand dollars on a rig I will use maybe once or twice a week is a waste really.
As an alternate however, I did build a Window Media Center PC this weekend because I was tired of watching my movies from a laptop. Here are the specs:
- IN Win BT610 Slim profile media case
- Asus P5N-EM HDMI
- Core 2 Duo E4600
- 2GB DDR2 800MHz RAM (2×1GB)
- 1TB SATA HDD
- SATA DVD-ROM
- Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit)
