I like it, but I don't like the skull on the front.. lotsa people seem to do that these days. maybe I'm just odd, but I really don't want skulls on all my equipment.
You can order them with the Falcon logo as opposed to the skull last time I checked... much more tasteful and less redolent of caffeine-fuelled Haloz archetypes.
I don't know about the rest of you, but there are some people who see "being able to play crysis" as a litmus test as to how powerful a computer is.
The simple fact is that Crysis won't run at good frame rates - or in high detail on most off the shelf PC's - so, many people would perfer to buy a computer that reviewers have claimed is CRYSIS CERTIFIED. The thought is, if the machine can run Crysis, it can run everything else.
I bought a HP Quad Core with 4GB Ram and a Geforce with the sole intention of getting Crysis up and running. On the side, I'm a Falcon 5.0 nut.

@Mark
It looks like a floppy/card reader combo.

Flashpoint.. was there a point to your rambling.. or did you just feel like stating the obvious to everyone on the techblog?

Skulls are in... along with knives, hearts, and other dramatic artwork. Just take a look at your local mall and see what's on all the clothes.
