My first PC build

Things have been going well with High 5, but my old PC just wasn't cutting it any more, so I took some of the money I earned and built my first homebrew PC. I went with a Core 2 Quad 2.4GHz CPU, nVidia GeForce 8800 GTS 640MB, 2GB RAM, 400GB harddrive and Vista Ultimate x64. The case I got is cool to look at and also keeps the internals very cool and ventilated. I've been using it for a week now and have had no real problems aside from some of my older programs not working right in Vista, which is understandable. There's plenty of room for upgrading, so it should last me quite a while. Attached is a pic I snapped right after I finished putting everything together. I'll post more soon.
