My life has gotten so hectic this past year I've rarely found the time for the internet at all, so I am really missing graphics and coding into the wee hours of the night for AW events. In fact, you could say I'm practically itching for it. This past summer my computer sorta broke. I bought a new one with a super geek (I say that with fond pride) friend of mine, and we built it ground up.

Has anyone else done this? Probably quite a few of you. If so how was your experience? So far my new pc is great but I haven't really even had the time to load a single graphics program or really take it out for a test spin. It's alot of money gone to waste in fact.

What would ya'll recommend for a first test-drive adventure?

Also, hope you are all having a great winter!! I've missed this group so much..
