Fixing the SSD in position

There's not a lot needed for the build - we dropped in some standard Crucial DDR3 memory and the SSD: that's it. We then installed Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit on it which automatically detected the wireless, touchscreen and bluetooth hardware, although Nvidia's Ion software was still required via Windows update. We didn't use the driver CD once.

It even stands up by itself! and later some, uh, "testing". Ahem

We were going to mount it to the top of the monitor with duct tape, but we found it left residue marks, so we revisited the zip-tie option again and mounted it to the back of the monitor stand, and zip-tied the d-sub and USB cables to the back of the cardboard to keep things neat.
