that is really cool. the mods and stuff were really neat. i wish i had modding skills like that.

Most of those mods don't require anything more than creativity. machines do most of the work aside from assembly. They also don't require money since they are paid for by sponsors.

Also you should have asked mr. big CEO how much faster his companies drivers could render a BSOD. I would have. But I'm an ass and think he's overly cocky. :P

Looks good overall. Wish we had cool shit like that on the east coast.

With the new drivers and especially with the drivers yet to come (Recently released was the 8.8 beta if I'm correct), the 4870X2 really eats the 280GTX. But I imagine the nVision is still very nice

Well, that's like with quad-/octocore etc, it all depends on a game. If you just keep throwing processor cores on your processor, not all games will get a lot faster.
