LOL and I'm pretty excited....

It's going to be a nettop since I wanted to try something simple at first... Nothing fancy really and I'm doing it for under $200 (I have a VERY tight budget to work with which is why I wanted the nettop option as well) I got a microATX barebones system with the Atom processor already installed for about $100, 2gb of RAM and a 500gb HD.. I'm thinking about getting a hauppage tv tuner/video capture card too but don't know much about them yet so I have alot of research to do before I buy one. I would plan on just using my old WiFi USB adapter since I already know it works... But I came in price wise way under the ones that they are selling at the Big Box Stores with alot more memory (and options if I do the TV tuner/video capture card)...

I can't wait unti newegg delivers everything and I get to play mad scientist....:lolflag:
