Wow.. very nice man, where did you get the furniture?

Thanks; it was Ikea, of all places. The unit with my TV is two "Oppli" units that have been modified to stack together. (locks together as if it was supposed to be like that)
Iam going to have to seal some stuff from you...

:laugh:

I've now got a 250gig PVR in there, and a couple of Guitar Hero guitars, but I've still not found a decent tripod, so I've not got pics yet.

He! He! .. look at mine ...

Isn't it really uncomfortable to sit cross legged on your bed when you're using the PC?

Here's my setup

My PS2 and PSP along with all my PS2 and PSP games, and some PSone games. Running MGS3 and Metal Gear Ac!d

WhiteZombie, my Mac (or Macalac as the missus calls it)

TheOffspring, my main box with Windows XP on it

146437766_1bd0637798.jpg

Soulfly, the Linux server-esq box with Ubuntu on it. Still in tesitng though

My actual desktop showing Mac with OSX Tiger running and the Windows XP PC playing Final Fantasy XI.

I got the Win and Linux boxes running through the one TFT, mouse and keyboard through a KVM switch, which is amazing.

Though, my speaker system only connects to TheOffspring at the moment, am working with a wire solution to get it working with the mac as well and maybe Soulfly.

Saving up for a new graphics card and TFT to dual-screen my desktop as I am getting into more arty web design with Windows now.

Part of my CD collection for show and my crappy little guitar. Just for show

i like your mousepad

Cheers, been thinking of getting rid of it as it's supposed to be used as USB hub, but I don't use them due to the only extra devices being my PSP going in there, and it's better to have a direct connection.

Could get a custom mouse pad though using my avatar!

I know .. thats why i got a wireless keyboard / mouse .... i generally stack up to pillows .. laydown .. be comfortable and use my pc ....

ahh, here we go another smug person (like I haven't heard this before).... I have a custom built PC I put together myself, and let me tell you neither you nor I can build a PC like Alienware, FNW, or Voodoo. I don't care about saving a few dollars here and there. besides the top builders get there parts way before Newegg. "we mach what we don't have" :p

Ruuurgh, I want to take a pic of my gaming area. >.<

Got sooooo many controllers right now, got my 360 just recently... and so many, many empty cola bottles. ;D

Plus of course my trusty NES that NEVER gets stowed away. It's even been halfway across the country on a little trip with me.

Oh, and I'm thinking of buying a 38" LCD TV with DVI and SCART + some other crap input. Too bad it only goes to something like 1300x1000 or whatever, can't really use it for a monitor. Oh well.

    • "...a low price of just $340..." I don't think it means what you think it means.
    • This Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 32GB RAM with RGB is a great deal for limited time by Sayan Sen Memory prices have been through the roof for a while, though it seems like things might finally be getting better. If you are in the market for one, then grab this Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 6000 CL36 kit with RGB for a low price of just $340 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The kit is compatible with both AMD and Intel systems as it supports both EXPO and XMP overclocking profiles, respectively. 6000 MT/s is often the sweet spot for many systems as it provides ample data transfer speed while still being on Gear 1 mode. This Vengeance variant has RGB so if you love bright setups with such lighting, this is a win-win for you. The technical specifications of the Corsair Vengeance memory kit are given in the table below: Specification Value Memory Type DDR5 Memory Size (Total) 32GB Kit Configuration 2 × 16GB Form Factor UDIMM (Desktop) Pin Count 288-pin Speed (Data Rate) 6000 MT/s Speed Rating PC5-48000 Tested CAS Latency 38-44-44-96 Voltage (Tested) 1.35V Performance Profile AMD EXPO & Intel XMP Heat Spreader Aluminum heatspreader Cooling Type Passive (Heatsink) Lighting Ten Zone RGB Software Support Corsair iCUE Get it at the link below: CORSAIR Vengeance RGB DDR5 32GB (2 x 16GB) 6000 CL38 – Gray (CMH32GX5M1E6000Z38): $339.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US, Fulfilled by Amazon US) This Woot deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • The very fact that a TPM (v2.0 specifically which is part of the issue I suspect) is now a baseline for any supported Windows installation will naturally mean other vendors will start to leverage it as they know it'll be there. It's called progress, and it's always been the way. A TPM isn't a windows thing, it's just a module designed to securely store keys. Secure boot isn't a Windows thing (although MS are the TCA as I recall hence the upheaval this year as the 2011 certs expire), it's just a way to verify a bootloader is signed. Windows simply leverages them.
    • It's a local account with the ability to reset a password at a very base level. I really don't get the issue that gets whipped up around it But you do you
