|  The wait... So you spend weeks planning every last inch of your new computer. You finally get enough money saved and have everything just right. Then comes _the wait_  One of the most exciting times of the year is always one of the worst for me. Its like christmas eve when you were 8 or 10, only instead of lasting 12 hours it last's 3-5 days.  The worst part is im off work for the next 3 days so i literally have nothing to do but wait for my parts to get here. but thank you guys for the advice leading up to my purchase. And i will try to get some pics in once i finish things up. | ||||||||||||||

 | Re: The wait... haha, this is an interesting topic as i think most of us here can relate. whenever i order anything from online retailers, i check the status of my order and tracking number several times a day until it arrives.  | ||||||||||||||

| Re: The wait... Same here! I really wish I lived near a Fry's or Microcenter or something so I could get my instant gratification fix! There's a Tigerdirect store in Raleigh, but I've never found much there that I really wanted to buy.
