Yeah, I've never went that high end but the thrill, I guess you'd call it, 
of building a machine wore off a long time ago for me. Spending the time 
to research the current processors, mobos, video cards, and so forth, 
slapping them all together, and crossing your fingers when you plug it it 
got old. 

I do have a nice Antec case that I should fill with something some day :)
