Glad you like the show. We hope you will keep listening. Yeah, I am not exactly sure how the OEM software should be handled; however, it does seem to be available. Roddykat,

Just one comment. John was right about the OEM Software. You can pick up a copy of Media Center edition (or any windows) at your local PC vendor. This just started recently. And I also believe that in a recent Buzz Out Loud podcast Molly Wood had just gotten her hands on a copy WinXP:MC but I can't remember what she purchased with it. I believe as long as you are supposedly building a computer, these places sell them. I got a copy of WinXP pro with just a case fan and an old copy of Nero with a card reader. Also, I've noticed places like New Egg has it listed on their site. As far as know, OEM software doesn't need a license to be bought. Take care, Roddykat Hi there,

I think I’ve gotten stuck with that $25 coupon book every year because my girlfriend thinks we need to support the local school. Yet the book sits in the cupboard or backseat, but I still wouldn’t just give the kid $25 bucks. Maybe it’s just me, but I agree with Patrick, I want something for my money. I know John seems pretty enthralled with Best Buy [if you added Best Buy to the Bluetooth and iPod drinking game, we’d all be loaded]; did you pick up your HDD yet? If you check out newegg.com or tigerdirect.com, they have HDDs with in the same price range and capacity. I’m curious on Patrick’s 360; has it crashed yet? In hindsight, would you wait for the PS3 [if you didn’t have money to burn]? As always winter12, you guys (& gal) rock!!! Oh yeah, one complaint; Jessica speak up or into the mic. You’re getting drowned out, and difficult to hear. Until next episode; have a good one. Disappointed to hear that you’re going to be bi-weekly now, but it happens.

Good links. I like the second link better since it allows specifying a more complex array of hardware. However, both seem to be good tools and relatively accurate. Thanks for listening and posting.

You had mentioned something about a power supply calculator in the episode and I have links to 2 of them(Courtesy of Digg). The first was on an episode of Diggnation and the other was on I came across on the site. By the way, I enjoy the weekly podcasts, but bi-weekly would be cool too because I know you guys have lives. Thank you for the entertaining show. Hi guys,

The bummer is it doesn't work with the Mac OS system.... still the same data on their site. I wish they would expand Apple support, I'd already have it up and running!
