I'll give this a go :D

Although nothing impressive at the moment :(. This is my Uni room where I'm stuck for a few more months. Sorry about the picture quality, took them on the iPhone... got no batteries for my camera :D

Hope they scale OK on here. Ideally... I want to add another monitor, get a new keyboard and mouse (I'm tempted wireless for both, but I find wireless isn't that responsive for gaming) and also a new PC case to shush it a little bit.

Ah the godawful V+ HD box, i hate mine constantly locking/freezing/taking ages to change channels....

Haha! It is absolutely terrible!! Mine ALWAYS locks up at 12am daily, and is so slow when compared with Sky boxes. I long for a Sky+ HD box... but that's coming in September when I move to a new student house :D

they do. its just rebranded using a different name.

Fredrik != the Jerker

The Jerker is much more stable and larger :)

Wow, I like the way you mounted your displays, what are you using?

The mounts are from www.monoprice.com: http://www.monoprice.com/products/product....=1&format=2

$11.39(ea) when you buy 2-9. :)

Terrible cellphone camera shot of my home office. Nothing notable on the other walls, one has a futon; to the right of my desk is a stackable drawer unit with my switch/modem/stereo on top. Shelving to come soon, trying to decide on a way to make it look decent. Same with a new desk, probably going to go with something wooden instead of glass - it's impossible to keep this thing clean. Maybe tomorrow I'll get a shot of my cube at work.

cool. Did the brackets for the mount fit in the pre-existing holes on the Jerker?

Look at all that space....Heaven!

You're right. It's an eSATA/USB2 drive dock from Vantec.

I also noticed they've got a dual slot version:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16817392028

Comes in handy quite often, I use the bunch of internal drives I've got (like 4 160gb drives, a couple 120's and a 200gig) like removable storage drives. Hot swappable and works with any PC with USB2 (though I use eSATA on mine, works seemlessly - as fast as an internal drive). If you've got a bunch of drives taking up space/generating heat/making noise I'd recommend it. I've got a single 1tb drive at the moment (going to buy another one in a few weeks) and I love it.

It's in my photo when I get a chance to post it.

FadeToBright:

How can you have to taskbars, in windows 7? It does not support Ultramon, does it?

I'm also running with 2 monitors - but will not install windows 7 because of the lacking support for dual-monitors - or the earlier lack of support :)

I'm using the Display Fusion beta. :)

    • Universal Media Server 15.6.0 by Razvan Serea Universal Media Server is a DLNA-compliant UPnP Media Server.

    • When you're in enterprise IT environment, you're kinda forced into it...otherwise I'm not touching any mail client for personal use.  I can't stand New Outlook. It's complete trash - half the features I need in (Classic) Outlook are just missing in New Outlook. I haven't talked to a single person who actually likes the new client. 
    • I think it's cute that Apple is implementing their tools at precisely the same evolutionary level as other devices' tools. In other words, I see no innovation; it's "the same but different."
