Spring cleaning time again

Unfortunately too late. I already wiped out the 465GB Windows.old folder (that is to say about 99.9% of it was deleted upon my request, but for some reason the actual folder Window.old and a folder inside named Users and inside that a folder named CB refuse to delete, when I try it, I'm told (this is funny to me): (see screenshot)

So, while the system did manage to delete about 465GB of the old windows installation (but not my documents folder since that is pathed to a different location so it never gets included in the windows.old folder structure), it still reports that there is a folder named Windows.old in the C:\ drive but when trying to delete it, I simply get that error message that to me means that it can't find the windows.old folder that is plainly there and which I want to delete the rest of it even though it's only 3 empty folders.

Oh, and that "gimicky" computer case that I mentioned that I liked, the R4 Bulldozer case in orange and black... Well, this was a prime example why I don't like to order my "major" computer hardware/equipment online. I went to the R4 Bulldozer's manufacturer/distributors website and I was all gaga over the computer case. They had taken pictures of the "dozer" outside, some shots laying it on it's side with some autumn leaves surrounding it, another shot of it up in the crook of a tree, general shots of it in the outdoors. Anyway, this "dozer" case looks absolutely awesome, so awesome that I couldn't believe that it was only $99.00 at Frys.

Well, when Samantha and I got to Frys we beelined for the computer case aisle because I know how limited they can be of stock and didn't want to even take the chance that somebody might grab up the last case of the case that I might want. I didn't really expect to see any "dozer" cases on the shelf however there were probably about 25 boxes in stock and one display model. Well, heres the point... The "dozer" computer case looked like crap in person. In the screenshots it looks like a fullsize tower case but in reality it's relatively tiny, I'd be lucky if I could have gotten my 275 GTX graphics card in it, let alone anything else. It's all plasticky looking and really REALLY cheap looking in person, hell even the display model was actually broken or maybe it was never put together 100% becuase it had bits and pieces laying all around it and looked like somebody might have touched it and the case crumbled under it's own plastic weight. So while the website did an excellent job of making the product look really excellent, the truth of the matter was that in my opinion, it looks like a cheap piece of trash. So, theres the prime example why I like to buy my major computer equipment/hardware purchases in person so that I can feel them, and really examine the goods up close.

Also, in regards to the cases, I was also looking at the Coolermaster HAF (or is it HAP) 9xx series of case. That case is absolutely huge and Samantha had to talk me out of it telling me that I don't have the space on my desktop, I said I'd make space and she finally talked me down off my high for it and I kept the Element G case that was already in my physical shopping cart and I'm glad I did. Plus I saved an additional $50.00 by buying the Element G over the Coolermaster and both seem to me to be excellent cases for anybody that is in the market for a new computer case.

Yup, other than the screw up and not being able to simply oc my new computer I coudn't be happier with the purchase, I almost feel as if I'm running a current generation computer now.
