@suntzu, nice setup. are your cases suspended off the floor?  and because of the curve on the front of those dell boxes, it looks like yours is halfway in the wall

Yes, the are strapped to arms that clamp on the desks (only $10 from ikea!). They are really sturdy too!

That's a sweet setup  but do you sit on the couch while on the PC?

LOL, no I just moved my chair out of the way for the pics, although i do tend to pass out on the couch after long counter-strike sessions!

OMG You have aliens floating in your room

I noticed that, my lens is apparently filithy!

Sunt, specs in the Rosewill case?

The Specs are as follows:

Black Clone PC (Windows Media Center 2005): P4 3.2Ghz, 2GB PC3200, 250GB SATA, RADEON 9800 PRO, INTEL D865PERL MOBO, AUDIGY 2 PLATINUM, LITE-ON 16x DVD+-RW DUAL LAYER, 2x ACER 1731 MONITORS, LOGITECH Z560 SPEAKERS, MICROSOFT FINGERPRINT READER/KEYBOARD.

The Gateway on the top shelf (Windows SBS 2003): P4 2.4Ghz, 1GB PC3200, 250GB PATA, the rest is crap!

Dell Optiplex GX270 (Suse 9.2 Professional): P4 3.0Ghz, 2GB PC3200, 200GB SATA, RADEON 9800 PRO

Toshiba M200 Tablet PC (WinXP Tablet PC 2005): Pentium M 1.7Ghz, 1GB PC2700, 100GB Seagate HD.

Well here is "the lab".? Yeah Yeah, I know I am missing a monitor for the dell on the end, my 3rd acer crapped out yesterday:((.? My 5 year old daughter helped me lay the carpeting yesterday, and I drove almost 2 hours to the closest ikea for the desks, but I think it was well worth the drive!

Yeah! I like the desk! The depth is alittle to much for my space. Those circles in the pics are ghost orb:blink:k: But many people that have them didn't know that they are ther:):) . For more info you can goto indianaghosts.homestead.com

Yeah I know ikea is sooo cheap! It was my first time there, as I stated I live in Milwaukee, WI and I had to drive to a suburb of chicago, il just to get there! The whole desk setup was less than $550 with all the addon shelves, wire racks, and swivel shelves, plus i bought 2 of the file cabinets, and 2 of the cpu holders. A similar "lan station" from cdw, or tech data is easily over 1000.00! I am very very happy with the quality of the parts also. I highly reccomend!

Hi wonder if one of you guys with the ikea jerker desk could tell me if a 21" CRT (Iiiyama vision master pro) will fit on it ok, It says on the website that it can take upto a 21" monitor but not sure if it means a 21" TFT or both, thanks  :)

Well, it does get quite annoying when there is about 10 pictures @ 1024x768 in one post alone, let alone in a post just to add "OMFG! WOW! WHAT A ****ING NICE SETUP!"

585315731[/snapback]

I don't dispute that but the original poster stated it was against the rules and I have never seen anything about quoting images in any of the neowin rules.

I was trying to figure out where this was so I could take a look at them.

You know the only thing better than a dual monitor setup is a 3 monitor setup!! Nice man.

My Z-5500's packed up the day I got my 2005FPW. Just no power going through them at all. Logitech said its a hardware fault and I should get them replaced from my POP (Point of Purchase) Which is eBuyer. Shame there out of stock.

The 680's look so old school compared to the 5500's!

And my 2005FPW... Well i'm not happy with its quality, Dead pixels, Backlight bleed, TERRIBLE screen door.

If you want a picture of it ill do one, but i'm not happy with it at the moment.

    • Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Valve has been routinely kicking off demo festivals on Steam for years now, and the second drop of 2026 has just opened its doors. It's a great opportunity for any PC gamers to find some interesting games before they release. The June edition of Steam Next Fest is a week-long digital festival including gameplay slices from a large number of indie developers, though a few major publishers are involved this time too. Interested players can use the Next Fest hub page's various sorting and filtering options to easily sort through the hordes of demos available. The top buttons offer quick access to separate and important sorting options, including "By Genre, By Theme, By Feature," with each one offering more granular settings when clicked. At the same time, the built-in Steam tags system is also available below every page to discover new games more quickly. As always, logging in will also enable Steam gamers to utilize Valve's recommendation algorithms to find game demos they might like, specifically, depending on their past play and purchase histories. This time there is even a toggle now to swap between getting a random and personalized selection as Valve collects more data on the available demos. The Charts section is where you can find the most popular demos on the platform right now, offering up the most hyped titles in a simple list. Right at the kickoff, Mistfall Hunter, Empulse, Echoes of Aincrad, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Over the Hill, Mortal Shell II, and more are trending. Expect this list to change as the week progresses. This edition of the Steam Next Fest is slated to end on June 22 at 10 AM PT. Valve's latest event is now open, and it can be accessed by going to the dedicated hub page here.

      I lived and breathed MSN Messenger/Windows Live Messenger. Going to the mess.be website (still online with no changes since 2013) to download display pictures etc. I was a beta tester for Messenger Plus! and spent quite a lot of time on the MsgPlus! forums (a read-only copy is still online at https://shoutbox.menthix.net) Some old Neowin articles also https://www.neowin.net/news/messenger-plus-350/ good times but how time flies

      Well i'll look into a docking station if needed and use that.    Normally i don't usually have all the drives connected at once,  usually once a month to sync the latest files, and then they go back in there storage area
