If I win the $50 million jackpot on Friday I'm buying a couple of these. But at $830 + tax for this case (from another Canadian site) I can't really justify it until then.

But damn it sure is sweet looking!!!!!

This is the Thermaltake Level 10 case.

Crazy busy with work (no rest for the only senior systems administrator). So much so that I'm not that interested in looking at hardware anymore so if this was posted before I never would have seen it.

However, with that being said I might order a Patriot Box Office this week because I'm not impressed with the quality of divx playback from my LG blu-ray player.

Mine is just around the corner. I think it could use some more fiber channel hard drives.

Or maybe we should just rip out the network and install the new Intel Light Peak for everything once it comes out.

I absolutely love virtualization. I just got my VCP on Feb 9th.

We have completed the first phase of the project. Now we are expanding our fiber storage and using it to upgrade to newer OS versions (no extra hardware required for the cutover) and I started the prep work to move to vSphere 4 today.

Kinda stuck at the moment though until we get that storage added in as we are really running low on room for running VM's.

On the whole virtualization thing, I just hate putting all your eggs in one basket.
