Or you can just compile, which is quite easy.

If you got those 4 pin molex connectors, you can use that to a SATA power converter in order to power the drives.

And how many eSata ports do you got?

I am VERY paranoid when it comes to important data, that's why I got 2 external hard disks, my main PC got 2 1TB HDD in RAID1 and I got another 2 servers(Both at different locations, one at my dad's office, other at my cousin's house) which contain complete data in case I manage to lose some. I do a weekly update for anything.

Now throw some pretty games at it in order to do some justice to that beautiful piece of hardware.

Thank you for the feedback, I spent most of the day making it relatively more stable and now it seems less frustrating, still a few quirks but I ironed out most of the issues. I can now continue to convert rest of the theme to effectively use the splitview template.

*shrug* Can never have enough RAM, but it depends what you're doing. I stuck 8GB in mine last year mostly because I was doing heavy virtualisation stuff at the time running Win Server 2k3 in VirtualBox.
Sure, but if you really don't need it you can save a couple of bucks.

Although for someone who's looking to have over 100 tabs in Opera and play Crysis, I'd say get as much as you can.

I'd say that is more appropriate for you, it has power but not a lot of it. I still beats mine though.
I've read in the comments that adding Ram requires

PS: I'm not into penis size contests :P When I buy a machine, it's not so that it's the fastest around -- it's only so that I can be sure I can keep it for as long as possible. My current rig was built in 2005 (using a couple of components I bought as far as in 2001!), and I'm still happy with it -- except for the Ram (2gb), but I postponed the Ram upgrade because I was planning to upgrade the entire computer anyway... Honestly I could have kept it for a couple extra years if it wasn't for the hard drive failure.

Pete: no such thing as Linux Format in France, AFAIK ;)
Correction : It still beats mine.

4GB of RAM should be fine, I don't think you really need more .

I'd say get it, GTX580 is a very good GPU and can come in handy if you decide to play a game or two.

EDIT : I re-read the specs. I'd say get the PC and ship it to me :P.

Here's an early prototype, its still buggy as hell but it is starting to shape up to be something useful.

I wanted to contribute something to wedge, so I'd allow my theme's wedge version to be free. As long as some smart-ass doesn't backport it. Plus, almost every big name forum has a mobile only theme(IPB, vBulletin, etc)

That's kinda odd, maybe an Opera problem? Can you try in other browser(Preferably webkit based).

Then you should be having a menu link on the top left, you'll need a screen of above a certain width in order to see both the panels
