yes yes. and computers are, indeed, a very personal thing for most people. I haven't had any problems w/ my Dell yet (keep my fingers crossed).

Anyways, I stand by my first post--the OP is a big boy and he can decide if blowing his money on cycling stuff is a good choice or not. I like what some other people said about trying diff. types of bikes, though. I have a Alum/CF road bike that I do long distance rides on and LOVE it. I suggest you try a road bike maybe, especially if you already have 3 fixed gears. MTB is cool too.

If you have your heart set on getting a track bike, though, you can't go wrong w/ a concept. sure, they are played out, but they are BEAUTIFUL. Another good idea for you is to sell your Kilo and a conversion and just get a Soma Rush. Sorry, I am obsessed w/ this frame right now, but it seems like it would do the job of several bikes (track, commute, etc) It has track geometry, front brake drillings, it's relatively light (throw a CF fork on it!) and it's pretty. It's obviously a cheaper option, but maybe you could consider that? I donno, I wish the IRS gave me money, though!
