Not My Turning Point Gaming Rig
I've been putting this off, but I figured I'd better get it over with. Here's a really old pic of my puter:
Note that it looks like black suit Spider-Man. That's because I'm a huge geek. The case is called the Black Widow from a company called DynapowerUSA that no longer sells PC cases. So you're SOL if you wanted to copy me.
Right now I'm running a 1.8 Ghz AMD Opteron, 2 gigs of ram, and using onboard graphics and sound. Not particularly fancy, but it works. I'm planning on picking up a GeForce 9600GT, upgrading the processor, and picking up a new soundcard eventually. Of course, if I win a Turning Point Gaming Rig, I won't need to. So pick me!
Got Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection for Wii in the mail yesterday. I'll put up a full cblog review after I get to spend a little more time on it, but I can tell you now if you're a classic pinball fan, buy it. I also picked up Ninja Gaiden DS, and it's a lot of fun. I'm on Chapter 4 currently.

About Mxyzptlkone of us since 11:08 AM on 11.10.2006
Aaron "Mxy" Yost was an admin for the Dtoid Forums, and hosted/produced the Radio Destructoid podcast with some of the other Dtoid community managers. He also has a dark secret that must never be revealed, lest the world be split asunder.
Pronunciation: "Miks-yez-pit-lik" Most people just pronounce it "Mixie" for short.
I'm a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma; but perhaps there is a key. That key is Russian national interest.
I am a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
I'm not sorry for the things I've said. There's a wild man in my head.
I am two with nature.
I'm a bird who doesn't sing because I have an answer, I sing because I have a song.
I mostly come at night... Mostly.
I'm an alligator, I'm a mama-papa coming for you.
I'm the space invader, I'll be a rock 'n' rollin' bitch for
you.
I'm like, you know... this guy.
You should listen to Radio Destructoid! It's the best podcast ever, except for those other ones that are better.
