Infinity Crossfire

OK, so Raine got a new computer, but it did not happen without a few hitches. We ordered Infinity from Cyberpowersystems...3 days later she's ready to ship. Wednesday = a knock on the door. A *very* big box arrives:



Out comes Infinity:





but all is not well - she won't light up, and her enormous graphics card is wonky...several phone calls later, it turns out her graphics card has snapped her mother board:



Either Raine waits another week, or infinity goes back in her box, into our car, and 150 miles North East to Newcastle (where she's just come from):



We end up in a really grotty hotel, with 'self cleaning' toilets (ie it sprays the floor every time someone leaves, and so is always soaking) and carpets which they are waiting to self hoover, but which have yet to do so:



Next morning we leave the hotel at first light, and go to Cyberpower HQ with infinity:



We then go and entertain outselves in the nearby Metro Centre, where we magically find a 'Wii Fit' with balance board. After this amazing piece of luck we get a phone call to say Infinity's all better. We go and pick her up. Drive (very carefully!) home, make a significant mess while unpacking, and plug her in:



Lights, graphics, action!

And that is the story of Infinity Crossfire.
