    Thanks! Yes they do provide the bracket. I kinda like the look of it too.

    Its a $5000 PC from a company, not $5000 worth of PC components. I actually like the case, its not the prettiest thing but it its all aluminum and has a very unique design with the HDDs mounted to the back of the motherboard tray. I'll agree the price is a bit steep for the specs but you get an overclocked PC with a warranty and great support service. Plus the Quadro 5000 alone is $1800! I'm very happy with the system so far.

    Its a beast that's for sure. I had it up to 20,000,000 poly in modo before I saw any performance decrease. :jawdrop:

    Hadn't noticed the correction in your favour; congratulations, both for deserving to win, then actually winning :p

    Puts those of us with humble 4600's to shame :s

    Well the display on my spacepilot just died not that I ever really used it but... I'm having this thought; would you object to me getting my hands on a 15" monitor, a 9x12 wacom tablet, some other bits and bobs, and having a bash at producing a concept prototype? It'll lack a number of the shiny shiny's, and'll undoubtedly be thicker and chunkier than a commercial product but could be a fun little project...

    Will do, it'll probably be a few months in the making; monitors are cheep enough, but it's getting close to a couple of hundred quid for a second hand tablet... we'll see how we go'es

    I know what I'll do with my wacom now. I have an intuos 2 A4 lying that I didn't used in a while. I found some tutorial to make a DIY cintiq from a wacom and a LCD

    That's the plan... and a 3D mouse, and a track ball, and some capacitive switches... and much help from my "little" brother...
