Wow, 1,000,000 seems to be an out of reach milestone, but I see a bunch hitting that all the time!!! I guess it is just a matter of time until I see that awesome milestone :-)

It's enticing to think that an i7 2600k alone has more than twice the power of all that put together... but I really don't want to spend any more money or build/rebuild any more systems either.

This is how it starts friends. You start thinking about how nice it would be to have more ppd but think to yourself, 'no, I'm no points whore like that douche twilyth.' And you want to believe it's true, but then you see a sale on Newegg or one of their daily deals (evil fucks they are because know our weakness they do) and think, well, it's just an extra PSU or a memory upgrade. But in the back of your mind you're already building your new 80 giga ppd rig.

But there's still hope for you. You don't have to end up like me. Only when you start slobbering over multi-socket server boards have you gone completely over the edge.
