Hey guys,

I have finally gotten around to taking some pictures of my new build. The lighting isn't that great in my basement, but I will take some better shots once I get my new desk and in the daytime :-P. Don't judge my cable management... I tried lol. Specs are in my signature.

WHy do you need a note to remind you what to hav e for breakfast?

I finally finished my 4 monitor setup for my tech area. 6 monitors is the goal, but 4 will have to do for now. This isn't actually isn't my main "workstation" area, just an area where I can work on things. It's still a work in progress.

Looking at those Matrix wallpapers would give me a headache. :laugh:

It's actually not that bad. I went through a lot of Matrix wallpapers before I found one that I like. Also, I rarely see the wallpapers when I'm using the PCs so it doesn't really matter. ;)

This is mine, I finally decided it was time to upgrade the mb,processor and ram(That I had the $$ for) next upgrade is the video cards.

    • I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
    • I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.
    • The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.
    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
