i'm sick of seeing the nice setups. lets see the trashy ones. you all can't live all nice like that all the time. mine gets really dirty really fast, but i pretty much live at the desk. and i'm always building new computers out of old parts. i have about 5 built computers that i work on, then about 4 worth of parts. think i figured it out though, making a stealth computer into an old altec lansing sub casing.. using the mini-itx (via-epia-m) 1ghz board/proc to put into it. will have it for things that use windows only (logitech, sansa media converter, updating firmware and modding the cars head unit, etc) hooked up to a 15" in the other room... basically a computer that doesn't look like a computer ;) which in turn will clean up my setup, but still. THERE HAS TO BE MORE MESSY DESKS! you can't be clean all the time. not at a computer station

[bOO] - i LOVE it.

Sweet setup! I've got an Mbox 2 too (no pun intended). I'm getting an M-Audio keystation49 and the Studio Pro 3 monitors soon.

Where can I get that wallpaper.. I've seen it before but can't find it.

Regards,

I have it in my dA page (see signature)

Sadly, i haven't had much time to use my Mbox 2, but hopefully during the summer i will get some stuff recorded :)

see what a long weekend and too many computer parts turns into? jeez.

what a mess my desk is now

eh, if you want to rid yourself of a computer and monitor, I'm always lookin' for donations *L*
i have the same keyboard for my mac, and sometime use it on bootcamp with vista... do you know how to get all the buttons to work???

Not all buttons will work with Vista. I can get them all to work except for the up/down buttons, iTunes button, and the button under that one...

Not especially the cleanest setup in the world but:

Click me.

The picture of the guy is my dearly departed grampa.

This also shows my Jones soda candy addiction, there are all six varieties of the candy there. :)

You have the mouse pad and printer as I am. ;)

Well each to their own I suppose, I understand why you may think people who have 5.1 sorrounds speakers on their desk don't go out [well not really] but some people prefer sorround sound and while it would be better to spread the speakers out - some people don't have the space to do so so try to do the best with the space they have and despite this still get an immersive experience in gaming and the like. Next time, it'd be better if you just asked "Isn't it counter intuitive/useless if you bunch all of the 5.1 speakers on a desk together - aren't they supposed to be spread out?" etc to get a better response from other members.

I don't want to sound like a jerk but way do some of you go out, get nice 5.1 surround sound speakers, and then bunch all the speakers together. It just seems like a waste.

I was given them for free by Logitech because I shop so much with them, also, I don't have any where to hang the satellites otherwise, I'd hook them up the correct way?.. They're already hooked up to give me 5.1 surround sound.

Ah, that desk brings back memories. :) That's what I had way back when I finally got my own apartment (with roommates, of course). It never came close to being that clean, though.

My memory is fuzzy but I think I had another shelf above the desktop. Did you take that off?

I was just thinking about that after I saw that pic, too. I've been using the same quad-speaker setup for years and have never placed any of the speakers behind me. I think the next time I upgrade speakers I'm going to go for a pair of smaller nearfield recording studio monitors.

    • No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.
    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
