Technically, I just upgraded an old one. The card, motherboard (this one has a PCI-e slot, the other was pretty much the same, but only had an AGP slot), and hard drive are new. The rest is old. I did take it completely apart (and made my daughter clean it - muahahah!) so I could start from scratch.

And besides, I had to do, um, research for the Nexus.

Yeah, but some are particularly terrible - and they were the best of 4 (I took 4 shots of everything). Appreciate it, though.

Actually, you were supposed to use the screws to reference the size of the Coke can.
