The ASUS Vento 3600 is truly a "love it or hate it" box (12 year old nerd or someone else) and unfortunately for Asus, the people tend strongly toward one of these extremes. I actually think it is interesting enough to warrant a purchase (although not at the $180 price newegg wants).
One major flaw is the cooling duct that fits over one's CPU. Does anyone know how it would fit over a Zalman? And it has no power-supply. What is a good deal on a mid-range power supply? (I have medium/high-power-eating pieces of silicon but only one hard-drive.)
