Nice (and messy) setup you have there. What size TV is that aand is it HD?

You answered your own question :p

That's actually clean for me, well the desk anyway... The room is still quite a disaster :p

The TV is a Philips 30" and it is indeed HDTV. If I had it to do over again I would've bought a flat panel and paid a couple hundred more :(

I've got a 3 port fiber audio switch, and the pelican switcher for all the different systems. The TV doesn't look as big because of the 2405fpw sitting below it :p

This thread is good luck, I finally got 9 lives in Geometry Wars after posting :D

Edit: That's more of the form factor I should've gone with Lingwo :p

Well, here's a camera phone pic of where my 360 is now. This is an old pic from when I first moved into this apt, and as you can see there's an original XBox playing, as the 360 wasn't out yet. TV's a Sony Wega 32", and a crap Sony 5.1 system.

My 360 spends its time connected to that or my 2005FPW (when I want to see the game in HD). However, it looks good enough on this SDTV that I don't bother connecting it to my monitor very often.

EDIT: Here's an updated pic. Still poor quality. This is actually a composite of two even crappier pics (one had the TV screen show well, so I superimposed over this one).

Oh ok. That Dell Display looks mucho coolo though. :yes:

I was thinking of buying one of the newer 30" Samsung Slimfits but I was't too sure of the overall size increase I would get over my current 20" TV that I game on now.

I sit about 7 feet from the TV and I don't want most of the HD detail to miss me wether it be games or movies because i'm sitting too far from he set.

Here's mine..

Rocking an Modified XBOX with Monster GameLink HDTV Cables.. Showcasing XBMC running in HDTV 1080i!

sure its not 480i? I didn't think that the xbox could handle 1080i, buuut I could be wrong. I know it looks damn good in the project gotham skin for media center. Can't wait for XB360 skin - going to be amazing.

    • When you're in enterprise IT environment, you're kinda forced into it...otherwise I'm not touching any mail client for personal use.  I can't stand New Outlook. It's complete trash - half the features I need in (Classic) Outlook are just missing in New Outlook. I haven't talked to a single person who actually likes the new client. 
    • I think it's cute that Apple is implementing their tools at precisely the same evolutionary level as other devices' tools. In other words, I see no innovation; it's "the same but different." "Hey Siri, help me write this document about shoes." Powered by Google. "Sure thing, while we're here, can I interest you on some Nike's? They're on sale at Target right now!"
    • Walmart was still selling the Apple Watch SE 2 on Black Friday in 2024. I got 1 for my mom and one for my dad for christmas.
    • But apple has ASSURED us that this is private. So, it's private. I expect the same "leeway" shown Microsoft to be reflected here.
    • ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE is currently $159.99 on Amazon, down from $219.99. That's 27% off and $60 saved on a keyboard that combines retro and modern design, while being one of the most responsive and adaptable 75% boards available right now (purchase link down below). The ROG Falchion Ace comes with the HFX V2X magnetic switches that allow you to set actuation anywhere between 0.1mm and 3.5mm with 0.01mm fine-tuning steps. It also comes with Rapid Trigger, a feature that resets the key the moment you release it rather than waiting for a fixed reset point, which makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced games. And finally, an 8,000Hz polling rate should make the response time feel instant. The build quality is decent, with dense plastic and powder-coated aluminum, which is expected from a keyboard at this price point. There’s also the onboard adjustment wheel, which lets you tweak actuation and Rapid Trigger sensitivity without opening any software. For competitive gaming, the ROG Falchion Ace is hard to beat at this price. And those who appreciate old-school hardware, especially those white keyboards we’ve all grown up with, will likely also appreciate the looks of this keyboard. A carry case is included.
