The past 2 podcasts were fantastic! All the awesome MaxPC energy is back.
Though the latest one is my favorite if only because you played my god damn questions about monitors on the air.
Off to put the Dell 2707WFP on my Xmas wish list.
Thanks for the advice guys!

Well... I did them all over my lunch hour the day I listened to the podcast... I can't help it that you guys inspire me to prolifically photoshop the hell out of Will. Thanks for the votes, and thanks for your support Dave!
Great podcast #40, keep up the great work!

Is there anything better than winning a contest done by MaximumPC? I highly doubt it.

3rd place. oh sooo close.
owel. que sera seraSorry about the the other entries from me that might be deemed offensive, i just plasted Wills face everywhere i could find.
Photoshoping him into WWII or Pol Pots Cambodia in hindsight may not have been the best idea, but the chance of winning orange box was blinding.
Congrad's Daryl Pemberton you lucky bastard!
