My latest and fastest machine ever!

I just put my new system together and OH MY GAWD! It is so freakin fast.
I'm STILL putting my 1303 together and it hurts me inside not to drive it everyday. It hurts like a large hurty thing lodged up in my...ANYWAY!
So I decided to combine my two loves...at least 'til I get the beast runnin.

Damnit... you got my hopes up. Looks impressive...

I know the only reason you spent big bucks on a computer is to look at germanlook.com In super speed, no LUDACRIS SPEED! GO!!!!

Remember that Optimus Prime loves you. More than meets the eye.

Ludacris Speed? Probably...

Well.....
OK. I'll tell ya what ir's got, but this is the last post an then back to my Buggy.

AMD 64 3500 2.2Ghz
2 Gig Corsair platinum edition ram
Nvidia 6800 GT 256 meg video card
Asus motherboard w/ integrated surround sound
supports raid, SLI (2 video cards) 3 PCI slots w/ s-video (for tv)and two monitors
480watt pwr supply
Asus Vento case and about a half dozen fans (still quiet as a mouse)
Yes, it is fast as hell.
Yes, it can reach ludicrous speed.
Yes, it cost me as much as the car.
Yes, I "needed" it (for work) I'm an artist. (helps when I do 3D animations)

Well! that's it!

really? Vento is a jetta?

What is a Bora? I thought that was a Jetta?
Not that I doubt you. I mean they call bugs Kafers, Fuscas, everyone's got a name. Cool though! Just confused now. So is a Bora a Jetta or Passat or is a Vento a passat?

Weird...

So I did a search of VW Vento...Then I did a Search of VW Bora.
Apparently they are the exact same thing...a Jetta!
Sorry I doubted you...er...did I say I doubted you?
Anyway...Wow! So, Technically I own two VW's!

and the drum roll.....

So what do they call the new Jetta?

The "Cop out"
The "ricer"

The "wannabe"

or maybe..."Poor man's Toyota"

I hate the new styling. It looks more Japanese than an Anime doll.

I mean...

What's the difference? Why even make a choice any more?
I've come to expect it from American car makers. In fact, I like that they have toned down their "over the top" cheesy styling in some ways.
American cars (for the most part) have terrible styling nowadays...and when they almost get it right they ruin it with some hokey gimmic.
As for the volkswagen braniacs at work on the Jetta...uhg...stay German you twats! Why would I buy a new Jetta when I can get a Maxima?
Bottom line...for my money...I'm going w/ Audi.
See the pics below if you want to dispute my claims...or just laugh.
