Here's mine right now.

I actually just did a ton of cleaning, so it's a bit neater than usual.

But I can never seem to get rid of cable mess, and my camera's flash seems to emphasize the cables a lot more :p

And now I have a huge space between my audio system and my printer, and nothing to put there..

I built the desk myself out of a $25 piece of countertop on clearance at Menards, a few L brackets to attatch it to the studs in the wall, and a couple pieces of steel pipe (the legs) I had lying around. Works well, and it's strong enough that I can stand on it :rofl:

I got my Z-5500's the other day, speakers probably aren't placed correctly, but they still sound great. :D

...and my homemade speaker stands. Cost me $22 for the pair.

Yeah i do :) So i can control the TV without remote desktop if i cant be bothered to login. TV Server's just a medium spec pc with MCE05 on it with two freeview tuners and gigabit lan. I schedule recordings over the web via a peice of software called WebGuide4 and then view them via the network normally on VistaMCE.

Btw link in your sig is missing a "t" on art

looks like my G3 which is a piece of crap btw :p.. what OS do you have on your G3?

Hi, I run a full blown 10.4.8 on there, but I honestly use it for more of a Apache Web Server. I also leave mail running constantly so that in case I accidentally lose something on either my PowerBook or my XP dev box (4th from the left) that I will have a backup. I set the option to leave mail on the server so that I can retrieve it on multiple workstations.

Waiting on the tax return so that I can pick up a 24" iMac and also a 19-22" LCD and retire that CRT. I will probably retire the PowerBook to downstairs duty and redo all of the wiring upstairs, then post some updated pics of course :)

Here's the main workstation in our house; I put my laptop on it just cause I don't feel like taking a picture of it on my desk upstairs cause it's pretty boring.

    • App, useful & Teams shouldn't be used in the same sentence.
    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.
    • That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine,  
    • Maybe ? DLSS Swapper (can swap the DLSS/FSR/XeSS versions) as long as the game (typically online/competitive) doesn't checks for file tampering. You can try different version(s) or update if not the current version of the FSR. https://github.com/beeradmoore/dlss-swapper
