Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
New computer just arrived - downloading COD Black Ops 2 from Steam at 6.4MB/s, and copying my iTunes backup on the portable hard drive to the new 2TB second drive at 38.9MB/s on the USB3.0 port.
I feel the need, the need for speed.....

Very nice indeed but beware of that speeding fine.
