No, not the airline recorder. I Finally got all the parts to build my Pentium 4 Based "BlackBox" project. Thanks to a gift certificate I got in trade to working on a friend's machine, I finally got a decent case for the board and the rest of the stuff.

I picked up a black and silver case (really flimsy, but it works :-/ ) That is the housing for it. I gotta do some work on it, despite it being new, not everything fits right (Damn chinese manufacturing processes) and I got most of the parts. The others my friends have. but this is the setup:

Pentium IV 2.8Ghz w/ HT. 800Mhz FSB

DDR2 PC-5300 RAM. (1GB). Interleaved :D

GeForce 6200 256MB DDR2 AGP 8x

Intel 946 Chipset.

40GB EIDE HDD (will upgrade to SATA 1.5 120GB

No optical drive as of yet. Borrowed DVD-+RW from main pc

530Watt PSU with Dual Rails.

5 PCI Slots

Running XP Pro right now :)

I doubt I will put Vista on it, although it's a posibility and I have an extra license. This machine will be used as either a media server for the house, and/or a gaming system
