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.

    • I can answer about the Linux bit. I only used AMD GPUs. I currently have a 9060XT (8GB) that fits my needs, I'm not a gamer, so I don't need that much GDDR. But lately, NVIDIA has grown a lot in the recent years. Oh, the horrors of NVIDIA drivers not working. But they have been getting better. I know a lot of members onm here that are running cachyOS and other distros, and are fine with a 4090/5090 variants. Really, though, I would stick with AMD variants.
    • Everything they say you can already do yourself on the registry by changing some things.
    • Artist's renderings are so much nicer to view than the real thing, don't you think?
