I am trying to find a new desk, but to no avail. It's got to be thin, about 3/4 of a metre wide. Any ideas?

iMac looks huge on that desk heh!

Desks are so important I think and can affect the whole workflow... it annoys me they give you such crap ones in student houses! (Right now I either have to type... or have my textbook on there. I cannot do both. God forbid I should ever want to do any writing.)

Yeah I do really needa better one, and would buy one in an instant if I could get one that fits.. I have strict space requirements which most desks can't fill. :[ Especially modern ones.. they're huge.

Same here. Now imagine trying to fit TWO machines on that same desk! :laugh:

Its mainly a media pc for myself, games tv movies etc. I'm not really trying to look at the full screen if I'm using it for "pc" related tasks. And the plastic wrap is well, I figured why take it off. The dust looks worse to me, plus when I sell the tv for a newer model it will be that much newer heh. I know, I know...

It's called polishing. And if you spend 30 seconds every couple of days doing it, you will never see any dust. That plastic ... if it's cool for you, great. But that plastic looks freaking horrible. lol

It isn't what the specs are, it's what you need out of the PC, if that's all you need it for then it's fine. Yeah I'd love a super awesome desktop PC, but at the moment my laptop suffices.

At the moment, even though the HD resolution of my 24" monitor is nice, I'm lacking in space on my desk, with the printer there as well. :pinch:

Wow, an eMac. I haven't seen those before. Any good for current times?

For a six year old computer, it's pretty good for basic tasks like web browsing and chatting. The only bad thing is that it takes up half of my desk, but I got a really good deal on it and wanted to get a taste of the Apple. :p

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      By matthiew · Posted

      Google are hyprocrites for signing this. They have been pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft, only they do it on Android and ChromeOS.

      In some countries the law has forced Microsoft to display a menu on a fresh install of Windows which asks which web browser you want and it will install that browser. This doesn't add any bloat to Windows. It simply an additional step when setting up a new PC.

      Chrome is also a first party browser on Android and ChromeOS. And on those systems, Google is pulling the same dirty tactics as Microsoft does on Windows.
    • Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Unofficial script lets you install unreleased Windows 11 features without Microsoft Account by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily evolving the Windows Insider Program over the years, introducing new channels and testing paths that allow enthusiasts to experience upcoming and yet-to-be-released Windows features (some interesting hidden ones too) before they reach the public. However, one long-standing requirement has remained largely unchanged as users are generally expected to enroll in the Program and with a Microsoft account. That's where a third-party tool called "OfflineInsiderEnroll" can help. OfflineInsiderEnroll is said to be a lightweight script that enables access to Windows Insider Program builds on systems that are not signed in with a Microsoft account. Essentially the tool configures the necessary Insider settings locally and hence allows users to select and switch between available preview channels while continuing to receive builds through the normal Windows Update channel. If you are wondering how it manages to do so, it is made possible by a Registry value known as TestFlags. When configured to"0x20", Windows stops communicating with Microsoft's online Insider enrollment services thus preventing locally configured Insider settings from being overwritten. This allows the script to apply its own channel configuration directly through the Registry as Windows Update does not verify whether a device has been officially enrolled in the Insider Program or not. Previously the utility has had already supported the traditional Insider branches including Dev, Beta, and Release Preview. However following Microsoft’s recent restructuring of its preview channels, the script has now been updated. The latest OfflineInsiderEnroll version, 2.6.6, adds support for the newly introduced Insider channel lineup. As such, users can now choose from several Experimental channels in addition to Beta and Release Preview options. The update also retains tools for refreshing the Insider cache, resetting Insider settings, and completely stopping Insider enrollment when needed. Keep in mind though that will need elevated privileges when running the script (run as Admin). You can get the latest version of OfflineInsiderEnroll from this page on its official GitHub repo.

      The "Classic" Outlook has done that for a few years as well. The option to even change that is really hidden away too... It really shouldn't be hard to respect user defaults. Sadly we are the product now, not Outlook. To change in the Classic Outlook: File > Options > Advanced > change "Open hyperlinks from Outlook in"
