So to add on to this. The flourescent lighting that was in there is now out and has been replaced by 2 sets of halogen track lighting with 4 lights each. Much "warmer" light and better too since you can move em around. The place is much more evenly lite. Insulation has been going up and is maybe about 80% done but it looks like we're gonna run out before we finish.

I don't know what computer shops you're talking about, perhaps the ones in large cities and tons of ignorant people willing to pay those prices. Turnaround time varies though, pending the parts needed being in stock. Anything that doesn't need hardware shouldn't take more than a couple of days, unless they're busy and backed up... Don't have that many work stations unless you're ballin. Ha

Lookin good though, I like your setup. Good idea for some extra cash.

Looks cool now get some 1/4'' osb and finish it off. It will look even better than it does. Isn't it weird how much smaller it looks with the insulation in.
