Title: Hello from the Canadian Prairies
Post by: fortkentdad on Wed, 05 June 2013, 21:09:48

Hello from Alberta Canada.
I'm a hi-tech grandpa who is enjoying the A10 Rig I built for myself last October.  It was my first DIY PC I built on my own ~ my techie son built me many PC's before this one but he's a few thousand kilometers away now so this time I was on my own.

I'm currently looking to add a good keyboard to my system and was referred to this site from Hardware Canucks where I hang out regularly.

Hope to be able to contribute my two cents worth from time to time.


Here's a picture of my A10 Rig

And this is a signature pic I've developed showing my system specs.

Welcome aboard fellow Canadian!

I am sure you will enjoy your stay and cry for the extra shipping cost!

..and yes, the extra cost of being Canadian definitely hurts.
