Dude, my PC is about 60 lbs just for the tower. Nevermind the 27" monitor...

Personally, I am coveting a larger case, I need the room to work. My present case has 5 bays each of 3.5" and 5.25", and I like the fact that I can install up to 4 more hard drives in here if I was so inclined. Maybe if I can ever get the money to build my new computer, I will turn this one into a media server...

Oh well, if I ever went to LAN parties I might care, but at present, the only LAN party I would go to is one I was hosting.

Aren't laptop hard drives slower than desktop drives? Or has this destinction gone by the wayside since the advent of SATA? My first laptop had an ATA-100 5400 RPM and you could tell a massive speed difference compared to an ATA-133 7200 RPM.

I use mine just for movie storage and document backups, so I wouldn't know. I have more than half a terabyte in nice SATA 7200 drives so I'm not complaining.

Ah, I see. It would be an exciting idea I guess to make a computer with the power of a desktop in a package not much larger than a laptop, especially for the look on the faces of the people you just smote in PVP.

I have big clumsy fingers, so I will not be able to work in anything other than a mid-tower, but I look forward to being wowed many more times by those of you who can!
