Possible trip and the Computer

Well I decided to get that computer I was talking about. I can't wait, but it will be about 3 weeks till I get it. I got a sweet 24" Asus Screen from new egg and the computer is being built by cyberpowerpc. I just hope that the computer game market stays alive long enough for me to use it. All the big name companies have been having so many layoffs just like everyone else has.

Specs:
Processor-Intel Core i7 940 2.93Ghz (stock)
Ram- 6GB DDR3
Graphics- 2* Nvidea Geforce GTX 285 w/1GB memory running in SLI
Motherboard- Asus P6T Intel X58 Chipset
Hard Drive 1- 150GB 10000rpm velociraptor
Hard Drive 2- 1TB 7200rpm
Disk Drives- 2* LG 20* DVD +-rw and CD
OS- Vista 64bit (hope that it works ok)
"Liquide Cooling of course

Steve B gave me a call last night. It looks like I'll be going with him to see Ryan B down in texas next month. All it will cost is about $400 to ship the bikes and for plane tickets down. Otherwise the place Ryan is staying at has room for us to stay and a car availible. Theres supposed to be some great desert riding. I've made it a personal goal for my self to invest in a lot of travel over the next couple years. I've been stuck in Wisconsin for way too long. I hope things work out, but you never know. I wish some of the other guys could make it too, but it is coming up pretty fast(Feb 18).

After all that I'm going to have to stop spending so much money, I've been trying to save up for a down payment on a house. I'm not in a hurry, but I'm thinking int the next year about seriously looking around.
