Moved the tower onto a side table (better air flow)

Better wire management

Upgraded to Windows 7 7000

I have that same keyboard at my mom's house hooked up to the desktop.

Camera sucks balls. Even though its 7.2 px it takes grainy photos mid day!

Use to have the same speakers as you.

Hey, where did you get that mouse? I could use something like that.

So since I tend to spend more time on the 360 with friends from work I decided I didn't need a gaming PC any longer, so I shrunk things a bit...

I love your new Dell. It looks like an external DVD drive :)

Thanks, suprisingly snappy and more than enough for my primary uses (web, IM, music, HULU, remote sytem admin, etc...). So quiet and saves tons of room, only problem now, my wife wants one. So I finally silenced my Windows Home Server and if I get rid of her tower this room will actually start to look and sound like a home office instead of a home server room.

I finally cleaned :D

Monitor: LG FATRON W1934S 19"

Mouse: Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 v.2

Computer: HP Media Center Pavilion a6518f

Speakers: Altec Lansing Dolby High Definion Surround Sound

The white thing in the corner is the Microsoft Wireless XBox Connector. It works well for certain programs (Freecell, Flight Simulator) but doesnt work on Google Earth :(

I have been looking for a corner desk like that titoist. Where did you buy it and how much did it cost?

Well I went to Home Depot, bought 4 sheets of plywood and other pieces of wood. I made it in the summer like 6 years ago. Spent $40 in total if I remember correctly including paint and such. It's actually bad quality as it leans to one side as you can see in the pic. It's not the camera :p.

The closest I have come to finding that type of desk is the ikea galant and it starts at $210, so I think I could justify the leaning for only $40. Did you use wood for the legs or do you have the plywood sitting on top of something else?

    • I gave up on browser ad-blocking extensions a few years ago, replaced them with Adguard. Not perfect but overhaul is a nice app that does the job on both Windows and Android with the respective versions.

    • "Of course the easiest solution is to switch to uBlock Origin Lite if you want to remain on Chrome, as it is MV3-based, but from our experience, uBO Lite does not seem to be as good as the original non-Lite version" In my experience uBlock Origin Lite does the job for normal everday home users. When they kill that we get to watch Firefox and Brave get a boost in user market share.
    • Block by DNS ad blocker! I dare you! I will even layer unlock Origin, on top of my internal DNS, if I need to and I don’t even block ads today (I really should but this type of behavior makes me angry). I suppose I could also just be lazy, and add the flags myself, back to each release (it wouldn’t be that difficult).
    • Wonder what MPs have ties to these privacy/verification/data harvesting companies that are going to step in this time. Last time under the Tories half the cabinet had fingers in the pies, heck even the PM and his wife at the time was working for silicon valley, probably made a fortune.
