Yep that rocketdock was it. Thanks.
looks like it's time to whip out the dremel
have you noticed any difference in temps?
Actually, no... but I was running my old case with the front open and a 120mm fan rigged up in the 5.25 bays. I am getting the same temps with my case all buttoned up and the fans on low.
No problem. I used to use ObjectDock, but found RocketDock to use less resources and respond quicker to boot.
I just hate having icons on my desktop. The second tile on the dock is Desktop Shortcuts; it opens up a file on my C: drive where I drop all the desktop shortcuts. If I need to get to one, I hit the dock and scroll to it.

I hate files on my desktop too so this is perfect. Good idea on the C directory.
Of course, you always put your main ones on the dock itself.
Another good one is to use a tile to pull up your downloads folder(s)/drive(s). I use the crap out of that one.
Hmmm... I may have to do a review on my monitor. I think Antec has discontinued my case so a review on it now would be pointles.

Did the downloads folder already 
I'm going to review my case next but a monitor one would be good.

Are you not using the TX-650? What's that grey PSU in the bottom pic?
Antec Earthwatts 650. I am going to put the TX-650 in my wife's computer.

It's good to know that I'm not the only one who couldn't manage much wire management in the 300. I'm glad you posted a pic of how tight of a fit it was for your GTX 260 too, both my 8800gs and 4850 are non reference cards that happen to be shorter than normal so I never really put much though into just how much space a high end gpu would take up.
Doesn't that replicate the functionality that's already present in the Windows 7 task bar? I don't use icons either and used to use object dock on xp but between pinning applications to the task bar and jump lists I haven't needed anything extra for 7.

Yes it does. I've used a dock for so long that it is just second nature to me now. I tried pinning stuff to the taskbar and it just felt... weird. I never cared of QuickLaunch, though, so I guess that had something to do with it.
