My two-hundred-and-twenty-sixth podcast is up. Scott catches up with Pete Brown after they've both built their "Ultimate Developer PCs." Any regrets? What'd they learn and how you can learn from their mistakes and successes?

UPDATE: Pete and I did a Skype call with Joel Barsotti and he guided me in the overclocking process and I was able to easily take the 3.33Ghz Intel i7 processor I have to 4.0Ghz, a free 20% speed gain while staying on air cooling. I'm sure I could take it beyond but I don't want to compromise stability. Is a short overclocking show or article something you all are interested in?
