Here is my new setup:

Removed the second monitor

Removed the platform

Added a new mouse

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?

    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri

    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri by David Uzondu Image via Apple Today, at the opening keynote of Apple's annual World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC), the company announced Siri AI, a "reimagined version" of its voice assistant that runs on Apple Intelligence. Siri AI helps you do things like draft messages, edit photos, and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations. You can access Siri AI through several methods, depending on the device. While "Hey Siri" remains active, iPhone users can also press the side button, swipe down from the Dynamic Island, or use a system-wide context menu on Mac to analyze on-screen text. Image via Apple If you ever need to go back and check previous interactions, you can open the dedicated Siri app to view your entire conversation history. This application privately syncs your data using iCloud, leveraging local Foundational Models alongside Apple's secure Private Cloud Compute servers to keep user data inaccessible to outsiders. On the iPhone, Apple built the assistant into the Camera app, bringing Visual Intelligence to help you split bills or count calories. This feature also expands to the iPad and Mac, letting users use screenshots or shortcuts to analyze images, while Apple Vision Pro users can ask questions about objects in their physical room. Other things to know about Siri AI include systemwide dictation that automatically handles punctuation and formatting, customizable voice speeds, and a spatial 3D interface built for Apple Vision Pro. Apple also added Smart Stack suggestions on the Apple Watch to help you continue recent conversations directly from your wrist. The road to Siri AI was quite bumpy for Apple, which initially promised these capabilities at WWDC 2024 when the Cupertino tech giant debuted Apple Intelligence. Apple later turned to Google, signing a $1 billion annual deal to use Gemini models instead of relying solely on its own in-house systems. However, this deal came only after consumers sued Apple because features Apple promised "did not exist at the time, do not exist now, and will not exist for two or more years." Siri AI is available for developer testing on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, and visionOS 27.

      Real shame the 16 GB versions are crazy more expensive than this.

    • iOS 27 & Apple Intelligence. Many iPhones become obsolete, right?

      By kiddingguy · Posted

      And within the EU all this Siri AI stuff will probably work around 2030 and the IPhone 25 🤣
