nice, that one is cheaper ;)

You can even get it for even cheaper if you do a price match on NCIX with this place. http://www.bestdirect.ca/products/116037/ANTEC/NINE_HUNDRED/

What I always do when I buy stuff from NCIX is search for a cheaper price on http://www.shopbot.ca then do a price match. It works 99% of the time. It's what I did when I built my system.

I also have the Antec 900. Have had it since it was first released, but mine doesn't look as bright as yours. Are those the default illuminated fans that come with the antec or did you replace them?

Yeah, those are the default fans that came with the case, except for the side fan. I took the photo with the flash off so the pic looks a little brighter than it does in real life. I don't know if it's brighter than yours but when watching movies I do find the light a little distracting so I added switches on the front to switch off the lights/fans when watching movies.

What moniter & keyboard is that?

Does anyone know of a desk thats basicly floating on the wall, lol you get 2 brackets and push the desk on to the wall, you can get them in shelves and I'm sure I'v seen them in desks?

Slightly overkill with the keyboards + mice/touchpads :p

17" Asus (Core 2 Duo) on the left, built in tuner for media center, also running the 19" monitor in the middle

12" HP tx 2500ea tablet (Turion X2) on the right.

Both keyboards and mice you see on the desk are hooked up to the laptop on the left, and shared to the right using Multiplicity

Monitor, keyboard and mouse sitting under monitor are hooked up to my 1u server on the shelf above via KVM also (running Server 2008 as a dev/testing box for some new projects I'm working on)

Also sat under the monitor is a Creative X-Fi 5.1 usb soundcard driving my 5.1 speakers

All in all, there's 1 server, 2 laptops, 3 screens, 4 keyboards, 5 mice/touchpads and 6 speakers in here, it's a pretty nice setup :)

Now, back to work on that new version of Neowin...

New version of neowin?!? What's to be expected?

Imagine we took all the code we have for absolutely everything, threw it away, and started again, that's what we've done :p It's coming along nicely, but I'm not going to release any spoilers yet. Most of the staff haven't even seen it at this stage.

Nice looking cable sleeves. Can we get a full view from the side of the case?

Sure:

Also dust sure does accumulate quick on that window. I only wiped it down earlier today.

Sorry that the pics are looking down and not straight at the case but my Tripod is just a bit to tall and I couldn't be bothered to bodge something together to make it the same height as the centre of the case.

Not really if you have 3 long brackets all lenths of the desk and slide it on it shouldnt be a problem?

until it rips a big chunk out of your wall...

just imagine, the pivot point of the desk will be at the wall, and any weight applied to the edge of the desk (furthest from the wall) will be magnified. kinda like the effect when using a crowbar.

to get this to be any good you'd either need a very strong wall, and/or bolt deep into the wall.

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By RejZoR · Posted

      Recycle Bin has been broken for literal YEARS now. The setting to delete files older than 30 days from the bin which is on by default doesn't even work. I have files older than 4 months in it and they are just there still...

      Isn’t it so sweet Microsoft after so many years of neglect, they admit to these issues in Windows lately? Doesn’t this just make you wanna run out and meet them halfway to give them a warm hug only? Just gives us this warm fuzzy feeling thinking about it. /s
