I haven't yet, but mine is underway.

The model I got has 8gb ram, 240gb SSD, 1tb HDD, Core2Duo processor, and is upgradeable to a Core2Quad.

However, I'm strongly considering just keeping it as a backup. To me it represents the best possible backup computer, durable and auditable.

It's backup for when my current computer breaks down, but also for when new sinister surveillance and encryption laws are passed. Or for when the web turns into even more of a wild-west with hackers and nation-states doing whatever they feel like.

I kinda feel like it was a bad idea to even discuss my ordering of this on a non-throwaway, from an IP vaguely linked to me.

That went kinda dark. Guess I haven't been taking enough Soma.
