Been pulling long hours and doing a 100+ mile commute one way every day. I couldn't sleep and thought I'd check the forums real quick. ;)

And no, it's not down to LA. That would very likely be a 3+ hour commute for me from where I live. ;)

My last long commute day is tomorrow, in about three hours is when I'll get up. (0500... before the birds are awake, heh)

I just got a Lian-Li case by the way as well. Looks real pretty.

linky


About my only complaint is that the bezel for floppy drives doesn't come with the case. The power light is a deep blue LED. It's pretty quiet as well. I plan on upgrading it with a koolance water cooling system this summer; but that is totally dependent on how the thing performs in the desert heat. :D

So far, I like it.

Wow, can't believe your doing such long drives! Hope you can get some good rest when you no longer have to drive so far.

That case looks like a wind tunnel. Almost looks like you could place a block of ice in front of it and the thing would suck it in.

There are places where you basically drive down a road, take a right at the mile marker, drive 30 miles, turn left at the mailbox and keep going till you get to the gate. All 50 or 60 miles through the middle of nowhere. I've been to other places where you are driving through some hills with farms all around, and you make a turn onto a dirt road. Then drive a ways and go down down below ground level and all of a sudden you see a facility built into a hillside. For this one I was totally like, "haha! Just like the xfiles or something!"

So far I love the case. I think I'll reserve judgement until this summer when it really heats up. Right now the temperature outside is 28 degrees and it's supposed to get to 11. But it's the high desert, so there's not a drop of moisture at all. It's a really weird winter...
