Mini-ITX C2Q [Quad Core] 64GB Vertex SSD

I built this PC as I needed a simple PC for the lounge, solely for web-browsing and receiving streamed media (mainly HD movies) from my server. And maybe the odd bit of PhotoShop work. I was amazed just how small Mini-ITX boards really were - smaller than my hand infact! I chucked the SSD in for good measure as I dont need any storage space on this PC (or any of my PCs) as everything is stored on my server and accessable from all the PCs in my house. This is my first experience with SSDs (and ITX) and I was amazed to see this PC boot vista ultimate faster than my i7 rig!! The 9300 onboard gfx is surprisingly good, the only downer is the crappy hd audio. The whole PC is about the same size as a shoe box, but with all the performance of a conventional C2Q Desktop PC. I bunged 4GB of RAM in there also as it was the same price as 2GB. Theres also the option to add a 9" (PCIe) gfx card too, should I want to play (3D) games on it at a later date (I wont - thats what the i7 rig is for). Stunningly, theres even some small OC options in the BIOS of the board!!!
