Okay that is your opinion. Why assume I dont like them? I seriously have no preference so it doesnt matter if I have it or not,

Don't take it too personally, to be honest my only complain with small keyboards are the small arrow keys, or some sort of weird arrow keys, if you see my laptop, albeit very blurry, the arrow keys left and right are ok but the up and down are terrible, other than that I don't have any other complain.

Well, he has all the USB ports at hand :D

BINGO!

I tend to plug permanently connected devices in the back, removable ones in the front.

I guess whatever suits your needs / floats your boat.

Not saying it's a bad thing was just a little confused for half a second and realised the tower unit was backwards.

I don't find it too bad really. It's basic, but works for me.

Not sure about that one, my main issue with Dell keyboards, and most other OEM ones too is that the keys are like jamming your finger into peanut butter, all mushy, and when typing most of the day my fingers will start to cramp

Wanted to be different is a small reason

Some is we got mad that Cooler Master on the front did all the ports at top upside down.

Main is we have a lot of USB 3 stuff :D so fun fun fun

My workstation at the office:

Dell Latitude E6510

Core i5 M560 2.67 GHz,

4 GB RAM

Intel HD Graphics

I don't think I could handle the monitor envy I'd be suffering, if that was my view all day. Something would have to be done, asap.

My setup :) Thinkpad T420, iPad mini, Asus 24" LCD, i7-870/GTX 480 rig (soon 7950!), Razer BlackWidow Mechanical/Backlit keyboard, Logitech G400.

Amazing setup man. Everything (except the ipad) looks very professional and elegant.

Loving the Thinkpad and the case.

Thanks! The case is an NZXT Guardian, I really like the quality/looks of it. Can't tell from the picture but it has a 3-sensor temeperature display and the lines on it light up blue which matches the keyboard (also can't see). Want to get a blue Razer DeathAdder to finish it off, but I am just too happy with my G400 to justify it.

As for the iPad...yah, it's a bit out of place, but it needs some love from me, too :p

    • 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
