Here is my setup again. Last photo wasn't that big.

My PC and my 60 GB iPod.

My gaming setup. Right now with only a PS3 and a DS Lite, I'm going to buy a Wii soon and later a 360.

Ghetto chair :p

Yeah, I used that "chair" for months. :p

Now that my new monitor has arrived, I've moved my computer to my room. My setup is still pretty ghetto. but hopefully it'll be nicer after I get a real desk.

Here is mine right now...

...and an M-Audio Keystation Pro 88 on its way! :woot:

Is that a PCV-1100B?

I would love your opinions about it quietness (maybe that's why you bought that case, so that the noise doesn't affect your audio recordings?) as well as maybe a few close up-shots.

Here is my basic setup. I still have to do some cable management :blush: . I have my Dell XPS Inspiron Gen2 laptop (yea it old but still runs good) hooked up to the Westinghouse 37" 1080p LCD Monitor to DVI-1. I love this monitor :D The Motorola Moxi DVR is connected to DVI-2.

The desk you have is awsome, does it come with the rack on the left? where did you bought it?

Thanks

Nevermind, just saw the reply of where you bought it.

OMG Valve amps!!!!!!

Nice to see people still using them! (Y)

Tubes are the choice of many audiophiles. They certainly make for a good-sounding computer sound system. :D

...Plus they keep my room toasty warm!

what the heck is a "floppy drive"?

Haha... Sometimes I need to make bootable diagnostic disks for clients of mine to help fix computers. Im going to get a floppy drive-card reader in there soon...

Like this one.

It's a 1100B plus II. It's not SILENT, although it gets pretty close when you run the fans at 50%.

Heres some pics... I was going to write a review of the case but never got around to it.

The case lit up

I bought the case pretty much because I had the money and I thought the case looked sexy. I dont regret buying it :)

That case is indeed sexy. Looks pretty nice lit up too.

Thanks for the close-ups, I couldn't find too many. I think it's still my case of choice.

My only complaint with it is that the power supply was a little difficult to mount. If you can live with only one hard drive chassis (holds three drives) you can remove the second one and the little wall between it and the psu compartment, you should have no problems.

Yeah, So I've heard. Some bigger PSU's, especially modular ones, are hard to install. I can sacrifice some harddrive space though, no problem.

Cool. I was going to get it, but the reviews said there is times when letters are repeated on the monitor, even when the receiver is close by. Im still going to get it, if anything goes wrong i can always return it.

@Kol: Do I happen to see a glimpse of a new upcoming theme there? :p

Hey, your right.

Kinda looks like one of those alienware themes. New wallpaper, maybe new theme (Y)

Just a heads up, it's a little tricky removing the second HDD chassis. Dont be afraid to bend it a little to get it out. Once it and the divider thing is out, you should have no problem mounting just about any power supply.

I need two 30" Panels!!!

i like that monitor, is it any good?

Yeah man they are pretty good. I got three of them. :)

Hey KoL how did you manage to get a ps3 out in the island when they only had a few hundred? I will be back in the island in may for good.

I think I was lucky. Last week I was in Walmart and saw 3 PS3. I was there today and they don't have more.

    • WhatsApp slams Isreali firm, NSO Group, for trying to spy on its users

      By leonsk29 · Posted

      So is Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, just to mention a few. What's your point? Everyone is a threat from their enemies' perspective. I'd say that Israel is only a threat to their immediate enemies like Hamas, Hezbollah and the Iranian regime, not to anyone else.
    • Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance

      By astropheed · Posted

      The government is not the good guy either. You propose 99% of people require that the government overreach and govern their freedom of information and privacy, while ignoring the government is made up 100% of people, of which 99% are (as you described) brain dead. You can't have both. The reality is Signal is absolutely right and the government is doing what it has always done. Ignoring that we are their boss and grabbing all the power they possibly can to make sure we aren't. Your (societies) ###### parenting is not reason enough as to why I can't have a safe platform for my data/information. Thinking the government is helping is precisely what they are targeting psychologically to take suckers like you for a ride. "Think of the children" was, has, is, and will always be a mechanism of control. In the rare occasion it's actually essential the mass consensus has always been there and it doesn't become a debate.

    • Apple would rather delay Siri AI than open iOS to rival assistants in the EU

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Apple would rather delay Siri AI than open iOS to rival assistants in the EU by Pradeep Viswanathan At WWDC 2026, Apple today announced a revamped Siri AI experience for iOS and iPadOS users. However, this new Siri AI experience will not be available on iPhones and iPads in the European Union when iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 launch later this year. In a detailed press release, Apple blamed the Siri delay on the EU’s Digital Markets Act, highlighting that EU regulators did not accept its proposed solutions for bringing Siri AI to the region. Consequently, there is currently no timeline for Siri AI’s availability on iOS and iPadOS in the EU. Here is what EU users will be missing due to this delay: Siri AI, Apple’s next-generation assistant powered by Apple Intelligence A new dedicated Siri app for revisiting conversations Expanded Visual Intelligence features Integrated AI-assisted writing tools Siri mode in Camera on iOS Other system-level AI features Since the new Siri experience on watchOS 27 is dependent on an iOS 27 device, EU users will also miss out on Siri AI on watchOS 27. The most frustrating part is that even developers based in the EU will not be able to test or use the new Siri AI features for their apps on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and watchOS 27. In its press release, Apple mentioned that making Siri AI available in the EU would require the company to give other AI assistants (like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini) broad access to private user data and the ability to control installed apps. Essentially, the EU wants competing AI systems to be able to read and send messages, make purchases, access files, and perform actions across apps. To address these concerns, Apple proposed an intermediary system called Trusted System Agent. This system would have allowed other virtual assistants to access the same features as Siri AI in a safer way. However, the European Commission rejected Apple's proposals, and it is currently unclear why. The good news is that Apple stated it will continue working with EU regulators to bring Siri AI to the region. For now, however, iPhone and iPad users in the EU will have to wait. If platform gatekeepers such as Apple and Google reserve deep operating system capabilities only for their own AI assistants, rival services such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and others will be at a major disadvantage. Modern AI assistants are no longer simple chatbots. They require access to core OS-level capabilities such as reading on-screen context, interacting with installed apps, sending messages, creating calendar events, managing files, and completing user-approved actions across the device. If only Siri on iOS or Gemini on Android can access these capabilities, competing AI services will struggle to offer the same level of convenience, even if their underlying models are better. This is exactly what the European Union's DMA is trying to address. Apple and Google should be allowed to protect user privacy and security, but they should not be permitted to use those concerns as a blanket excuse to block rival AI assistants from getting fair access to core platform features. A secure permission-based framework could allow users to choose their preferred AI assistant without giving any company unrestricted access to personal data.
