Looks great, but where do you have to place your LAN-pizza ?

That's right. Standard, cheap CPU towers still rule for old-school food storage when you're on a LAN.

I have that keyboard, it kicks ass for the most part- seems to work better without the Logitech software installed though!

I dont like the idea of those weird mini-boxes. How does the mobo fit in there, and is it possible to upgrade cards and stuff?

I say, its only good if you got the $$$ and go to heaps o lan parties. It looks better for gamers than a laptop... but I would still get a laptop instead. Theres no heavy monitor to lug around :biggrin:

How far was this lan ... and which part of your equipment survived the journey ?
