    Was the brick you used to smash the shop window really worth $700??

    Where did you get it from?

    craigs list posting... some guy built this with his tax return $$ for BF3, then decided to sell it because "I just dont play it anymore" so all the guts of this are going into JPmeyer038's Mod (which will finally have a proper worklog this weekend). he basicly got an i7 1366 system, a 580, psu, (everything but the case, 500gb hdd, and monitor) for $450.

    Dang, man...that is a steal of a deal. Congrats on an awesome purchase.

    I've got to say, though diluzio91, someone needs to pull your character sheet, cause I think you are twinking your Luck stat.
