Only a few updates for 2009. Just changed around the location of my second monitor to make it more useful, and to give me a bit more desk space.

What's the smartphone to the left of the first pic? E71 by any chance?

And what model is your case?

When all my computers were in one room:

Of course it was never really setup that way; realistically my Eee PC is one of my network servers now for audio, and my laptop goes around. The actual main setup is like this:

My basement was finished for quite a few months now but I didn't have time to move anything down yet, but I dropped one desktop down there today along with a monitor I bought back in December. It's still a temporary setup for now.

A bit on the boring side to be honest (no offence!), but I like your desk phone! Is that a "24" phone, that goes... 'dut dut, deeee duuuu'

Haha, yeah it is boring. Unfortunately I don't get much say in what I can do with it, it being in an office shared by 4 other people.

And yeah, that is a "24" phone, and it can go "dut dut, deee, duuuu" but whenever I change it to use said tone, the phone server changes it back :(

^Nice setup :)

What's the basement PC for?

It's just a spare PC lol, don't want to clog up my room.

Nice cabling job +chconline

Thanks ya :D

considering the lack of a mouse. and its running windows xp with a hella lot of hard drive bays i would say its a back/file server?

No I already have 4 other servers in the house haha. This one is for, well, it's a client network comp :p

And Aussie, he already has a file server (not shown in pictures)

Yep. FTW.

That's two of them... the Thecus N4100PRO is not deployed yet though. That's in my basement storage/networking room.

Dell XPS m1330 hooked up to the Samsung 46" LCD TV via HDMI :woot:

No wonder microsoft gets so many dead xbox's look how that is position right toward the wall! xD

I suggest put it somewhere that behind the xbox, there is space for the hot air to go away instead of staying there making the back more hotter :D

That's a launch console. No RROD yet. There's a whole behind the TV stand and about 1 1/2 of space.

@J400UK: How much nicer is it to have all your cables tucked away in cable tidies ;). I just did mine recently its great. I will post some pics of my setup as soon as my dad paints my wall. I had dual screen but went to single wide screen and had to fill the hole in!

    • Thank god they got rid of the disgusting looking sidebars, and the corner radius looks much better, too. Two things I hated on day one, and never got used to.
    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.
