By every single part, do you mean you are going to make your own motherboard? Put your own chipset on the motherboard? Or just be lazy and buy a motherboard and each component. :)

Unfortunately we're having problems with the motherboard fab plant I created just for this build. Those damn Chinese are cheap, but they can't maintain a level 3 clean room if their life depended on it.

Getting lots of bugs in the production line, huh? Now you've got the EPA to deal with. Some of those Chinese bugs are harmful to America's environment...

I use a 24" WS monitor at work. Freaking great stuff. At home I have my 110" project screen hooked up to my PC... but in all honesty, I don't use my PC for much more than a media center any more.

For work, I am using a HP laptop with a 17" widescreen monitor, docked on my desk with a 24" widescreen monitor. When I go home and sit at our 19" square flatscreen, it looks tiny.
