This is the rice boy mentality of computers. You know, that "Look, I've
got a VTEC sticker on my mustang! It gave it 20,000 more hp! And that K&N
Air Filter gave me another 50,000! So now I've got a 70,090 horsepower
engine! WOOHOO!" type of mentality. IE, looks == power.  =)   (I totally
disagree, of course. I buy killer cases AND killer parts to make a box
that is actually as powerful as it looks.  *GRIN*)
