So far, we have been doing a great job at making progress and we are 95% complete, but we keep adding more stickers to the product catalog. I'm pretty excited for the launch and I think our site will be a great source of funny stickers and logos for everyone.

Here is the party flyer:

I must say... I'm extremely surprised that I'm not seeing the same results that everyone else is seeing.

I thought that when I was doing the comparison at stock speeds, I would see a bigger difference once I overclocked, but even now, it is pretty much the same and even slower in some cases.

If I had to take a guess as to what is going on, I'd say that there are still some driver issues to be worked out. The parts are all pretty new parts, but I was able to install all of the drivers in Windows 7 without a problem.

Anyways, it looks like I might end up choosing Vista to run on my home PC. I'm itchin to start playing some CS:S, Crysis and World in Conflict. :)

It's a HOWTO on installing and configuring Windows 7 x64 in VMWare Fusion, which is VMWare's workstation product for Mac OS X.
