if you do mod it though i claim no responsibility. make sure you do your homework.
LOL .. I hear ya Naw...just bideing my time ...I'll tell ya this tho'...when I was building systems, always gave the customers a little extra tryin' to look after them, but my personal systems I built, if it didn't peg every benchmark there was, it went out the door at half price. Think I only had 2 go out that way. What they're (manufacturers) doing to systems today is criminal. They're so choked down it's pathetic. And I really believe they think they're protecting the customers from themselves If the users only could see the full potential of their systems. Well...anyway...
