Old box shit the bed. Thought it was the PS, but no dice on a swapout, so me being the lazy, impatient ass that I am, trudged down to Worst Buy to see what was still available that had a PCI slot so I wouldn't have to buy another network card.
Ended up with an E5500, 4GB, 1TB for $499 with just enough slots to accomodate my current video and network card.
Kudos to Asus for putting a model/SN sticker on the inside front cover of the manual so you never have to fart around the back of the system. Little things like that really make a nice difference.
In an almost prophetic move, it was only a month ago that I finally broke down and bought an auto-backup drive. Thanks to this, my 56GB of videos and MP3s are safe and sound on the new system
