@tsupersonic - Does that Belkin cradle allow a case to be used while charging?

Yep! I have 3 iPhone cases - Mophie Juice Pack Helium (not that you would use this since bottom part of the case is microUSB, but showing the cradle is big enough), Bear Motion Slim Cover, and elago S5 Outfit Matrix case, and they all work with the case on. You can even fit the iPad Air on there, although the cradle wants to fall back since it's not designed to support the weight of the iPad.

Well people dont change their workstations ever day. Alternatively you could post pics of yours and get it moving again. Its one of the threads I really like. I look at it with envy (sometimes) and inspiration. So yes lets get it moving again.....

<Thread cleaned>

Guys, a workstation, battlestation, whateverstation is your machine that you use to work and play with. There's no need to take the thread off-topic splitting hairs over definitions.

If you don't like the pictures being posted, please take the conversation elsewhere.

work in progress.

 

going to add in shelves but forgot to place order for the shelve pins when buying the stuff and now have to wait till saturday.

 

going to paint the desktop and shelves. but cant decided to go black or go complete white.

 

I think this is the first thing I built that actually look good. the monitor fits just right.

 

that monitor doesnt really have a stand. just a ring thing on the back.

 

the left and right speakers are sharp 3 way 100+watt speakers. they sound great. center is BIC America 100watt

 

not seen is 2 back sat 100watt jvc speakers

 

and a RCA 100watt passive sub that was converted over to active with a Dayton Audio 100watt amp

 

 sometimes I dont have the sub on, and dont even notice because the front speakers put out great bass.

 

computer is custom build

 

thermaltake V9 case with sides converted to semi sound proof.

 

gigabyte board with intel 3770k

 

16gb 1800 memory

 

5 2tb drivers.

 

EVGA 780 3gb classified

 

soundblaster ZxR with 5.1 optical and analog connected to Pioneer VSX-819

 

and the windows is actually a bed sheet over a tan curtain. lol :rofl:

 

I work nightshifts at my job and need the room dark durning the day to sleep.

 

 

this is a true cave...

 

my family even says so.
