I was just going through all my old receipts (didn't want to add up the $$$ I'd probably get depressed).

Feb 16th 2005.

Total = 2842.80

Highlights (or lowlights?) include:

Athlon-64 2.2GHz S939 (390$)
MSI K8N NEO4-Plat (270$)
1GB DDR1 (2x512MB sticks) (470$)
ATI X800XL (560$!)
74GB Raptor (still works) (270$)

who the heck pays over 500$ for a video card these days lololol!

I'm sure Rob can look through my customer name and see what I've gotten over the years, it's a lot though.

My oldest would be from some time in the summer of 2002 and it was a Geforce2 MX400 AGP. The cost was probably around the $100 mark. I know I don't have that receipt anymore.
After that it would have been my first custom PC that Chantal helped me with parts selection on during a Saturday in June 2003. The cost on that PC was around $700.
I've probably spent a few thousand dollars there over the years. By now I've probably been coming close to spending in 10 years what Rob paid me to work there for two years total over a four year span.

I don't remember if it was a Smartblue 350 or and original Audigy 2, I do remember I had a heck of a time finding the place in that little taxi stand or whatever it used to be just off the rotary there the first time I went out.
