You must be loaded with Cash if you can save that much up in 2 months bud.

I know.. it's a relatively crappy Dell box. And yet, it's a p3/1ghz machine (these cpu's cost over $1k usd when they came out), with a 3com onboard nic. It's quiet and small. It's going to be my new router... :D

And then.. my new room, living with some friends, is my real new toy. Here's the latest computer setup:

What Linux distribution is it you are using? its a shame imho to use a Dell for that since as far as i know Dell sells them only with Windows, so you probabely have a licence for Windows on that machine. (but i agree with you Linux is more suitable in this case)
 
Bought my evo some toys Friday and working on getting it all installed atm.

uhmm.. it's OpenBSD.. as can be seen in the photo :)
Yes, the dell probably had a Windows license attached to it, but I've never seen that. I just had the box given to me for use as a router a little while ago.
 
Wasn't this the "New Toys thread", not the "your desk" or "your computer" one?
