Been in the club for a while now but none of them were used as workstations. I had 4 K7D Master-L's in my crack rack and I decided to put one of them in my personal system. I will eventualy have them all in the studio in the 4 workstations. My wife is still on an Asus dual PIII 1ghz, its still fast enough for her needs but she wants to upgrade now that my station is the fastest :p

I guess the crackrack will windup being all single processor boards after a while :wtf:

Madfish hit it right on the head. One system for running 2 clients. Had to reduce the amount of powersupplies running around here lol.

I do play around with photoshop and I want to start doing some digital video editing. The Gainward card came with Intervideo WinVideo and WinCoder.

We have a little studio here that my wife runs her webdesign and graphics business out of. When im not here its used for Photoshop and Illustrator editing by her partner. Shes a realy talented artist with her hands and a computer.

Basicaly im just a hardware nut that likes to build things.
