Why, that chunk of change would go a long ways towards a new computer, wouldn't it?
What a coincidink!
I'd have to leave during the day next Thursday to get there at a reasonable time, though, so I'd miss the Katie for the LG team.
Although you might decide it's cheaper to spend the 39.99 for a van or truck rental.

Get the 285's the price difference was only like $20 and the cards are that much better. CompUSA has them with rebates for $339.00. At first we were just gonna update our motherboards and video cards and then suddenly it was just a whole new system, i'm not complaining though 
Your not that far away in theory you guys could come over

That kinda sounds like how my system went from origional planned price to actual price.
Oh... this is only that much more....
I missed out on some of my rebates though, stupid fine print writing of within x amount of days of purchase.
The 285 is kick*** just make sure you have 2 dedicated power connectors for each 285. Alternately the 295 is basically 2 285s on the same card for $100 more

dUmb, etc.

Well seeing as how we are only doing 1 video card per machine it shouldn't be a problem. I figure 1 is more than adequate

Actually, we bought them both for $289/each on sale on NewEgg which we felt pretty lucky 'cause we checked again today and they're $389 now at regular price. We prob would have got the 285s if we didn't need to buy power supplies and RAM. But, I figured we could just get these for now and just buy 2x more later when they're cheaper and get motherboards that supply 2x PCI-X x16s slots and SLI them.
Sorry to have missed out on Comic Con. We ended up getting tied up w/ Mrs. Trance's brother and g/f coming down from MA on short notice to visit and we ended up going to Sea World that weekend. We'll post pics to share on MySpace shortly.
We'll definately have to figure something out to hang out with ya both. G'luck w/ the computers!
We'll have dinner soon Trance or go see the Mouse
Oh noz! It's Monday again!

Syn has been a busy bee. Thurs and Friday were filled with me tantruming about not wanting to do my midterm. Saturday was game night, much fun, I got attacked by a cultist wanting to kill me. Sunday was crocheting and watching the first two episodes of Carnival.
Tonight is homework and reading with a little crocheting. Maybe tomorrow night, not sure. Wed. is girl's night and Thursday I start my sax lessons again!
Yay for fun projects to keep me busy!
Maybe I've been here too long, at first I read it as your taking slax lessons.
Woah.... o.0
I could never hope to attain that level of lolz, even with lessons! 
OMG YAY! Its Spring Break this week, just realized it! No homework this week!
You do have homework, girlie. Your assignment is to watch Blair Thumb and do an essay on it.

Homework gestapo!
Okay! Lemme see, 2940 miles there, doubled for round trip... the truck gets about 15 mpg, so that'd be 392 gallons... figure what, $1.80/gal, so only $705.60!
Let me know when I should start driving!
