Whats new and exciting in everyone's world? I've been outta the loop for 2 weeks

I've been out of the loop house hunting and traveling around the Philippines the last couple of weeks. What's new and exciting with everyone? Any new tech or awesome life news anyone wants to share?

Awesome news?  I finished building my World of Tanks computer a few days ago.  It's running fine and I'm still waiting on my World of Tanks mousepad for the desktop.  

One of the tank models I built in the early 1980's is inside the case.One of the tank models I built in the early 1980's is inside the case.

That looks awesome Al, it'll still be a month or two before I get a new AMD build going. I have a few ideas floating around while I wait for my parts to get here. Still need to get some DDR5 and an M.2, Gen 5 is hard to come by here because it's too new.

The prices of M.2 drives has been up and down over the past 6 months.  Right now, they are up.  I recommend you hold off on the Gen 5 M.2 drives, or at least just get one for the system drive and a Gen 4 M.2 drive for the data or games drive.  The G. Skill 6000 MHz DDR 5 Z5 Neo RGB RAM is excellent, but there are others to choose from.
