hell...if they charged $40-45 for the COD package INCLUDING MW2, i would've been all over this.
id pack is tempting. but i still don't understand why you can't buy 'return to castle wolfenstein' from steam.
doh! i was all excited about getting bioshock for $5...then i saw that i had no mouse cursor once i loaded up the game (running an x850xt). looks like i need to buy a new videocard with shader 3. =P

and surprisingly it all fit in my car (even with all the crap in the trunk to start of with)...

EDIT: hmm... i wonder if these CPUs are OEMs or retail boxes (with fans).
i picked mine up awhile ago...
