Im moving from Montreal to Orlando and want to take my pc with me.
Just wondering if you guys know of the better way to send it, like a special service or something.
The thing is that it is a heavy mf, and i dont care paying around a 100 or so.
So please any advice would e good.

fedex, works good for me just pack it with tons of styrofoam, and make sure nothing jiggles. or sell it, take the hd with you and build a new one.
ps: welcome to orlando, its blows here.

i stuffed one before in one of those large luggage suitcases with clothes padding it. the airlines took it, slapped "heavy" stickers all over it, and took it to the plane's luggage hold.
that was before 9/11 tho.

"or sell it, take the hd with you and build a new one. "
i was going to say that.
either way, take the hard drive with you. imagine the horror if they parked the box on the plane next to a huge 120 watt Marshall amp and corrupted your hd.

backup backup backup. dont forget to backup your stuff. burn it to dvd, duplicate your hd, anything, just do it at least 3 times. im sure you know that though.
oh yeah, one more thing, back it up.
since your in a plane, theres plenty of static electricity and temp/pressure changingand dont forget to back everything up
