Dude that's just for the office area it's not a high powered home theater like I have in the living room.

Here's the living room one, where I actually game and watch movies:

Dude, you win at life :) (Y)

Boz, seems like you've been pretty successful, congrats man.

One thing that seems kind of weird though is how if someone on Neowin has a lot of material goods, people act like they have the end all be all of life. For all you know, Boz could be very depressed and unsatisfied with life. Fancy toys don't bring happiness, they enhance the experience you have doing what you do on them. I dunno, yeah having a nice TV and sound system will make your movies better, but it's far from completing your life.

Either way, I think you have great taste in your setup. Multiple moniters is the way to go, and your desk looks like you actually use it too, unlike a lot of people here. :p

That's kind of dumb...this is supossed to be a picture of our workstation. If you wanted to show them your desk, just go to the Ikea website or something. :p

No, in all seriousness I find it much mor einterestign to look at all the little things on someone's desk and the details of their life, rather than some sterile looking environment. If that's how you always keep it.....well you're boring. ^__^

Try to ignore the stains on the carpet and marks on the walls, my house is a sty... and has old carpet...

HHAHA, looks like my house at the moment...

you need to clean the lens of your camera pretty bad, it looks like water spots or dust spots.

Exactly...I don't understand why people line up there cellphones, Ipods, etc.. right next to their mouse...like you use it like that everyday. Don't post pics of your room after a tornado swept through there, but don't take everything off and move the chair away, etc.. just to take a pic. These are pics of your workstation, not a advertisement picture for a company website, lol.

Yeah, that was probably my sister, there's a fingerprint on there! and there's the standard dust. I'd clean it but I don't have a microfiber cloth.

LOL...It's quite alright. I'm very happy with my life. I don't have kids and I'm still single but that's not necessarily a bad thing at 29. I'm far from depressed :)

    • What browser do you prefer to use, and why?

      By +Edouard · Posted

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      By The Norwegian Drone Pilot · Posted

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with ad blockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Samsung Browser'. It has very little bloat and is a nice-looking web browser with an inbuilt 'Ad blocker'. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. This browser can also install Chrome extensions. I have a system wide Ad blocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the web browser, but over the whole system. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt ad blocker because of that.
