Nah, just throw it in the pile with all the other long lost boards, never to be seen again :P :D

Well, except the VGA adaptor boards, I like them ;)

On no.. to many hops and jumps ;)

Looks nice but between all the motherboards and the cat, you don't have any more floor space!

Bet its expensive too.

Hmmm, doubles up as a heated cat box when not in use. Set the bed temp for say 40oC? :)

That is true. I would seriously have to love a good sort out in order to generate that much room!

About £3,500, but its overseas, so probably end up double that cost after shipping and import taxes :roll:

Cat doesn't live with me so wouldn't be a problem anyway :)

But seriously, I would consider saving up and getting one of these printers with the possibility of printing STFM cases etc...
