    Hi everyone,
    I just installed the new Command Center, and so far, there isn't too many differences. It looks like there's improved facial tracking for Alien Sense, as well as a changed image for Alien Fusion?

    Is it just me, or was this grey before?

    Thanks,

    i think they are doing small teasers

    That IMO confirms a red chassis because there would be no WAY they would release that if they weren't :D

    Possibly. Red doesn't look as bad as I thought. I'll have to inquire as to how much all the plastics are when red releases.

    We'll have to wait and see. Even I don't know if and when a red unit will be released with ATI video cards.

    Thanks,

    This is going to be a tricky one. Is there any chance you accidently installed Command Center without removing the old one? If you did it correctly, you should only have one Command Center. Also, on rare occasion, your webcam can stop working in alien sense. I haven't quite figured out why, but If you start up in stealth mode (9400), sometimes it comes back. If all else fails, remove command center and try reinstalling.

    Thanks,
    Gabe
