Sorry, that was a typo, it's the K8T800, heavily modified by Voodoo so that they can now call it their own. It's originally made by either VIA, MSI, or Asus, different places say different things.

My desktop has an MSI KT4VL, and I love it.

I have $1,400 USD of my own saved up, and my parents (well, my mom says so, but my dad doesn't yet) will be giving me $2,000 for it as a graduation present. That makes $3,400, so the extra $300 will be made up from graduation gifts from relatives. My estimates show that I will still come out with a profit 8).

So, my laptop in the painting stage right now, soon to be in the hardware building stage. They billed the credit card, $4,821.78 CND. The bank decides the currency conversion.

Here's some cool videos of a Voodoo M:750 Theaterbook, same color as mine.




And here's a really cool clip from TechTV's Screensavers about a Bavaria Blue M:355.

You have to right click on the movies and select "save as" (I had to, anyway).

i think i'm finally growing out of having to have the best computer possible stage cause I could not in my right mind see myself spending $4000 or even $3000 on a laptop. These days my money is being saved up for a hdtv and then for my home theatre. hopefully i'll be able to afford both over the summer. i'd say the sub is more pressing, as the hdtv's will just fall in price over the next few years anyways.
