Just under a week since I got the approval email telling me that my application for a Try before you Buy T1000 had been approved, today my T2000 (no, that's not a typo) has arrived.

First impressions:

• For some reason it is slightly larger than I expected - that's even thought I've seen the V40z in the flesh (a big beast) and the X2100 and X4200 (the T2000 shares its case with the X4200).
• The unit has by far the best and most useful 'on-box' set of diagrams and guidance that I've seen. There are guides on changing fans, PSUs, RAM and PCI cards, with colour-coded guides for whether each operation is a hot, or cold, plug item.
