I'm keeping my old monitor for a while, and my keyboard, mouse, speakers, etc. work okay. The mobo has integrated Ethernet, so that's all right. I know there are more socially responsible things I could spend this on- hell, I know I could be saving this just for me, never mind socially responsible- but it's my money, and it would have been vacation time if I hadn't left the Red Cross. That means it would've been spent on entertainment anyway, just as time rather than money...

I have a hard time spending large chunks of cash. Don't mind me.

The only piece I would quibble over is the Lite-On -- I've had bad luck with some of their CD-R drives in the past....I have a Plextor DVD+-RW drive, which I cannot recommend highly enough.

That's going to be a sweet system. :)
