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.

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

Here's my setup

146437587_23288d8c82.jpg

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

146438212_ecde676f62.jpg

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

146438080_061a33becb.jpg

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

146437914_18625f53bf.jpg

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!

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.

    • Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance

      By freedonX · Posted

      When I was a teen, I actually believed that the government used to be always be the bad guy. However as an adult, someone who has actually seen the Law work (though not perfect). I now think everyone cries a river. In this specific case, the so called freedom has consequences to society. Anyone who has seen how child are indeed affected, and I don't mean only extreme things like getting drugs or hate crimen , but no one can deny society as a whole has gone down a rabbit hole due to exesive use of internet. Before anyone calls out that it's the parents responsibility. Yes that's true, but the reality your family/kids might be good people. There are 99% out there who are not and have been brain dead by many things on the internet.
