Granted he doesnt know anything about PC hardware hence his drive selection (which should have been SCSI RAID5, or SCSI at the least) but if money wasnt an issue, why settle for Raptor74s ... and on the onboard RAID controller at that?

I agree fully, and by the way nice job pwning him hard in the face preator he needed to be humbled.
Agian on a more serious note I was at Microcenter the other day which is a general computer store for you guys that don't have them by you, and i walked up to my friend that is a cashier there and started talking to him about the lastest and greatest parts out. While i was standing there i noticed the guy that was in line buying about 1200 USD in books (look like manuals) and a bunch of hard drives and some other miscellanous things. I didn't think anything of it and started talking about the x1900xt and what a good card it is. The man in line butts in and says "Well i have the fastest AMD dual core they make and 4 gigs of memory." I quickly replied with "Well is it the FX-60?" (my bullshit meter was going through the roof.) He repied with "I don't know what the name of it is but its the fastest." Now a man of his age (about 50) throwing his money around blindly to say "I have the fastest" is really pitifull. Not to mention him not knowing what the hell he was talking about. When i would try and talk he would talk over me with that "Well i did it better" attitude. At that age you should not be acting like that and trying to impress a 19 year old kid with the "fastest CPU." When I left Microcenter that guy had made my balls as big as Epcot centers I couldn't even drive home it was so bad lol.
