Is that the XBox360 cam MS makes? Does it work well in iChat? How does it compare to the iSight quality and framerate wise? BTW, I like your desk, are you running dual Dell 24"?

yes it is... i don't know how it compares because i use it with my 360 :p

and i've got 20" dualies

I'm re-doing a lot of stuff, including our home theater in the living room. This was more of a "demo", testing out our new projector and trying to find placement for a secondary television (32" flat screen). Good idea for football games and what not.

I show it because I sometimes hook the laptop up in the living room to the multiscreens.

Anyway, on to the main computer desk. I still have some desk mods to install and do some wire management (I got some nice lights to put as accents)

You'll notice at the top of the setup, is a 30" widescreen HD TV. I have my XBox360 hooked up to it and it runs 1080i. But this television is also used as my 4th monitor. Commonly my "media" monitor, for stuff like running shows I have on the computer or movies. For the best quality it's hooked up to my graphics card through DVI and I also use it for playing some games (they look so great on that screen)

Right below you'll see the typical dual screen layout most of you commonly have. These are my two primary monitors, 19" LCDs (All I own is LCDs, it's the way to go) this is where most of my focus is usually.

To the right, is a 20.1" widescreen monitor in portrait mode. Commonly I refer it to my "feed" monitor. It's where news and news feeds are displayed so I can stay up to date on news, tech stuff, etc..

The computer is running dual ATI Graphic Cards, one PCI, one PCIe with the latter being 128mb DDR2 and the first being 64mb of Ram. I don't do a whole lot of gaming so I don't need a lot of power, that's why I have the XBox.

Computer is a dual core 3.19Ghz with 1GB of Ram, TV Tuner card, PCMCIA card reader, and Creative 5.1 HD Surround Sound controller.

This setup does have a true 5.1 surround sound system, however it's just not spaced out, that's all.

You seriously need a new desk D:

Hehe, that really must hurt your neck.....

And having those two other monitors set in like that is just silly.

It's not as deep as it looks. From my chair setting, I can see everything perfectly. No neck hurting. I don't dedicatedly watch stuff when I'm on the computer. But if I put on a movie or play XBox I roll back some so I can take in the HD glory.

Not too much has changed, just updating for the quarter...

Looking good. (Y)

What is the product called? Is it networked?

It has onboard gigabit, wouldn't be much use having a 2TB array with no network connection :p

still the same :)

Why do you keep posting the same pics? :unsure:

img0032ho7.jpg

man, this camera is great! better than my friend's Olympus..

Anyway, from left to right..

My 3 drawer cabinet on lower left is packed with computer stuff, cables, pci cards, etc.

You see my ripper, obviously.

Standard Compaq keyboard, Blue Optical MS mouse, 2 x 17" lcds on my main system, Monster, specs in sig, and Logitech x-530 speakers.

My laptop, as in sig.

My Lexmark Z615 Printer on bottom.

The other LCD monitor, keyboard and mouse, is my test system, when I get in friend's and family computers to fix.

My Dad's system on the far right, couldn't include that in the pic. He's running on a Socket A system, soon to be upgraded to a AM2 system, while i update to C2D. He's also running on a 15" and 17" CRT. The blue Raidmax case is his chasis.

I'm planning to get shelving on the far wall. I'll repost when that gets done in a week.

    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
    • Good, because the nonstop chattering from the voices in her head made me quit the second game.
    • This new cabinet design lets you run AMD, Intel, and Nvidia PCs inside one case by Sayan Sen At Computex 2026 earlier this month, AMD announced a couple of new X3D processors for both sockets AM4 and AM5 as it confirmed the support extension of the latter till 2029. And although Intel didn't unveil any new desktop chips, the company's Core Ultra 200S Plus series is relatively new too. Let's say though that you want the best of both worlds simultaneously, and instead of running two different systems, you can have both running together side-by-side, or rather on top of one another. That's exactly what Thermaltake's CAPO X dual system is made for doing. While it's not exactly mandatory to run AMD with Intel, or vice versa, you get the idea. As you can see in the render above, it is essentially like a double-decker PC case that is capable of holding two microATX (mATX) motherboards. Even running just one discrete graphics card in a PC can get toasty, so you may be wondering how well the cooling is designed on the CAPO X, Thermaltake has confirmed, as is evident from the marketing promo image above, that the case supports up to two 360 mm AIO liquid coolers. 420mm is not supported. In total there is room for 13 120mm case fans. In terms of I/O (input/output) options for the two systems, there are naturally two places for those ports, one at the top and one at the very bottom of the chassis in the front panel. In terms of use cases, there are many possibilities. Thermaltake itself, for example, highlights how one system can be your main PC while the other could be the AI agent PC. Another example given is how it can be used to stream and game simultaneously with dedicated systems instead of hogging one with the entire load. Nothing regarding pricing or availability was said.
