Did those lab PC's happen to have McAfee installed?

No, but I believe some of our older computers do.... Not looking forward to Monday so far....

What happened was one of our techs had to reimage the computers in that lab, but he accidentally used the wrong image file (from a completely different model of computer). As soon as the computers booted they would go BSOD.

It wasn't really a big deal, as all we had to do was image those computers a second time with the correct file, but it still put that lab out of commission for the day :p

Also, a few shots of where I work, the tech support office, and one of our computer labs:

Hey Joey, would you mind emailing me the full res shot of the blue screen lab? That would make an awesome wallpaper at work.

Not usually this clean.. I know I know, it looks messy, but.. believe me.. it's clean for me.

You can see my sketchbook for writing down ideas, my notebook for writing down even more ideas ... etc.. my cat on my chair, my hoodie that gives me my net nickname (Minifig)..

Even with the bigger desk, I'd prefer that station tbh :p

First time posting my Workstation here.

Workstation.jpg

Description From left to right

Monitors: 20" Dell - 30" Dell - 20" Dell

On Desk: Harmony One remote, iPod Touch 32GB (Almost hidden by the Remote) Logitech Keyboard, Razer Mouse, 17" MacBook Pro (2009 model), Lens Cap.

Next to desk in the bottom left corner is My main tower in a Lian-Li PC-X2000 Case its quite tall which is why it is not underneath the desk and the power switch is on the top which just makes things worse! (Specs in signature)

Just got these Desk Arms for all 3 of my Monitors, I actually bought them due to a review here on Neowin in the Members area.

Those arms are nice, any images of the fitment to the desk? as I have a 20year old lipped top Oak desk, and pondering if they would fit?

This is the original review I found here, it may give you an idea. Basically it attaches to the desk like a vice would, the vice will adjust to fit a desk that is the thickness of .63" to 2.6" so that's quite a broad fitting my desk is about .80" thick and it fits quite well and is very sturdy even with the 30" Monitor fitted which is almost the full capacity of the arms weight and it is still ridged and strong.

Highly recommended takes less then a minute to get the arm put together and attached to the desk then another minute or 2 to get the monitor on it, standard 80x80 and 100x100 Vesa Mounting holes

Not exactly a "work station" more like a...play station? switched up my room completely (got a bigger desk, new entertainment center.. ikea galore!) still need a stand for my mac and some posters or something since my walls look dead. oh yeah, need to paint ASAP, i hate this green now =/

    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
    • The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
