I can't find anywhere that sells the jerker! So I have to get the Fredrick. The Fredrick is still big though right? Big enough for 2 monitors and still have plenty of space?

Hmm, not sure about that man. Ikea stopped making Jerker's but you can still get a used one.

As for the the space, i don't have a Fredrick, but i would bet money that its going to be "roomy"

Edit: I dont think you'll fit two monitors by the looks of this picture;

I'm not sure if that's the same thing... Look here

It says it's 140cm. That's 40cm longer than my current one, and my current one could fit another monitor easily (if it wasn't for all the shelves and stuff, that's why I'm getting a basic one lol)

Lol.... I kind of just answered my own question.

Here's my 'reverse Squeezebox':

Yes, it will live next to the sub lol. Sound output is from my Creative Audigy 2 sound card, using digital out (S/PDIF passthrough for external decoder) to the receiver. Darn Creative and their 3.5mm jack outputs, it took me a while to find something that would convert 3.5mm to RCA jack. Well, I found them in my basement, so what the heck. Connected via a standard 75ohm digital coaxial cable to the receiver.

The ATI thing is the receiver for my Remote Wonder II remote control.

Why I call it a 'reverse squeezebox':

The Squeezebox can stream music from a fixed source to anywhere in your home. Well, in this case, the music is located in a fixed source and any computer in the home can instruct it to play :laugh: (Remote desktop -- connected to main home gigabit network).

BUT it can stream music from my NAS.

lol 32" display, no complaints about size of the display of this media player :p

It was really courageous of you to still take the pictures of your setup even though one of your legs has been chopped off. By the look of the pictures I'd say it was your right leg?

Weird, i was looking at this one http://www.ikea.com/ca/en/catalog/products/60111123

Is that the Fredrick desk from Ikea? I'm getting that this Friday along with my new monitor, mouse and keyboard lol :D

No idea, I got the desk from Ikea and built it a few years ago

Is that a BenQ monitor?

Nope, it's a Chimei monitor

@Evera: Is that a selfbuild-kit from a Gundam up on the shelf? If so which grade is that? Cuase mine din't have the thing where your's hangs on

I think it's master grade, 1/60

Yup! I had some time and a small can of Tremclad paint while waiting patiently for my mobo to arrive. Why not!

BTW Mr.GreanShamanGT

Yes, i like the ATI/AMD combo. I also like the idea of having only one driver package (Catalyst) that install everything at once. I'm not going for a world speed record anyway. It works, it's rock stable and i'm very satisfied.

well I gotta say, that is one sweet looking system =]

    • Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.
