I have that same desk... it has cable management stuff built into it... did you loose it? there's little clamps for the cables. They clamp onto the back of the desk. I loved that. It actually came as a suprise since I had no clue it had it. LOL.

Yeah I have it still on the back.. Problem is all this stuff I just added, so I haven't gotten back there to start putting them in it. .

Its comfy :). Picked up the speakers for $50 at walmart a while back.

Where did the chair come from and how much was it? I am looking for a new chair, and I like ones with cloth on the arms

And this is the work setup. Dell Dimension M6400 for the work laptop (on the right two monitors) and my HP Pavilion DM1 on the left (pushed to the left monitor). Monitors are Dell 22"'s.

Love the case. Can't do that here in Oklahoma though. Too much dust in the air. If I didn't have to open the windows to save on electricity every now and then, I'd be all over a case like that.

My set up. Just moved up to 4 monitors last week.

What do you use all them monitors for? it doesn't look very practical to me, but i'm sure you have your reasons.

how do you guys keep your houses so clean????

LOL, OMG -not saying she doesn't keep her place clean but it's so typical of women (that i know) these days. They come to my place and they go, "WOW!, you're place is so clean for a guy." It seems the rolls have switched as when I was a kid I was the biggest slob ever and girls were always perfectly neat and tidy. Now I go to my female friends bedrooms (the rest of the house is fine) and it looks like a tornado went thru there! There's clothes and crap everywhere!!

And oooooh i want that Samsung Monitor (the one with the lighting behind it - and yes i know it's not built in :D)

solitaire.......

Usually I have the two outside ones turned off when not in use. When all are on, its general for when I am either working on college work or doing some web design/development. Dreamweaver, Photoshop or Flash, and browser to test all get one monitor each. Last monitor is reserved for chat clients, music player, solitaire....

Thanks...it is deathly quiet...which is the best part. Just blow it out with some compressed air every once in a while and you're good. My dog's loose hair is the worse problem. :)

That looks really good :D... I have been thinking about doing the backlightning stuff myself, but have not found anything good.... Did you buy the LED strips in Ikea and can it change color?

how much did the lighting cost??? looks UBER cool!

Haha, thanks :)

Yep, I used a set of DIODER lights from Ikea. $39 CAD for a set of four strips! There's a small dial that allows you to change the colour.

There's also two buttons on the dial that allow you to set it to automatically flip and fade between colours.
