looks great. how does it perform?

personally 2 things i dont like about it though are: the BT router (shudders, the homehub is so bad) and that the monitors are of different sizes and above each other. i think i have OCD or that one where you need everything to be perfect... but still, thats my (perhaps biased) view  ;)

great stuff, my rig sucks compared
