It's aweful to think that your life depends on just 1 person saying yes to something.. All I've ever really wanted to do with my life was build and fix computers and the worst part is I know a fair bit about it already, all I need is that bloody piece of paper saying I know. Tomarrow is my financing apointment with the college financing department. I just wish it was done and over not knowing whether I can qualify for OSAP is nerve racking. I would have never worried if it was 2 years ago but after my injury and huge physiotherapy bill wrecking my credit for 2 years straight I'm pretty sure my credit is in the mud now.
I just keep repeating to myself "Your only 30 theres still time!" and then that little voice in my head replies "Cripes! Your 30? Ha-HA". I should have done this a decade ago, how sad is that... All my family told me to do this a decade ago, and every year that passed up till now, word to the wise out there... Listen to your families sooner then later, there only trying to help.

God I want to build this!
Processor: Intel Core i7 920 2.66GHz Quad-Core
Motherboard: EVGA X58 SLI LE
Case: Cooler Master HAF Full Tower Case
Power Supply: Cooler Master Real Power Pro 1250 Watt
RAM: 12GB Tri-Channel OCZ Core i7 1333MHz DDR3
Graphics Cards: Three EVGA GeForce GTX 260 1792MB Each! (3 video cards for 3 monitors!)
Hard Drives: Two Seagate Barracuda 1.5TB 7200RPM 32MB Cache (raid 0 for 3TB of space)
DVDBurner: Lite-On DVD Burner with Lightscribe
Keyboard: Logitech G19 Gaming Keyboard
Mouse: Logitech MX518 Gaming Mouse
Speakers: Logitech Z Cinema Advanced Surrond Sound System 180Watts RMS
Monitors: Three 22" ViewSonic 3D 3ms LCD Monitors
Glasses: Nvidia 3D Vision Stereoscopic Glasses
Monitor Stand: Chief Flat Panel Triple Monitor Stand
Operating System: Windos Vista Ultimate 64bit
All for a grand total of $5000.00 (not including tax of course lol)
And what really ticks me off is Dell, HP, Alienware, and Falcon Northwest all offer "gaming computers" at far greater rip off prices. All of them had systems for 6 grand not including tax with the same processor, 12GB of slower ram, 1 Monitor of cheaper quality, and only 2 graphics cards rather then my 3. Generally I choose better quality parts for a tri monitor setup and can build it for far cheaper.
The best part of my build.... All the monitors play all your video games and movies in 3D! You can stretch your favorite shooter game or flight sim over all 3 monitors and enjoy the huge vista in 3D!
