Hopefully, good for you. Bad for swiftech? You were with them since the beginning, right? That new acrylic res they are selling made me think "Is Bill Adams still working for Swiftech? Surely he wouldn't allow that."

So when can we expect the first of the NEW BillA waterblock reviews? The ones that will again be the standard for the industry to follow.

Welcome back, Bill (yeah, I mean it! you're back on my list of people with whom to go share a beer (or wine). ).

Are you planning on doing any more testing?

Woohoo. He's been decoupled from the system. He's a free agent. Wait a minute. Didn't that turn out to be worse in "The Matrix"? Bill's now going to remodel the world in his image.

hehe, a world created in BillA's image would be an interesting place, to say the least.

I'm thinking Starship Troopers meets iRobot, but closer to Starship Troopers.
