that's good to know, glad I got the 350 watter.. Though it only has a single 
CD-rom, I might add a DVD later..
I haven't been in a Radio Shack in YEARS. and I HATE BB.

The good news is, swapping the HDs got me to remove my 160GB second drive that 
has all my movie & music partitions. Now all I need to do is add it to my 
main system... next week..
