off topic a bit, but will someone tell Origin Lab to make a kit for the 8?!?!?!?! they have, without a doubt, some of the cleanest looking kits on the planet. i'm only 6 powerball numbers away from flying over there and commissioning them personally... lol.

ok, back to your regularly scheduled thread.
