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

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By +samw61 · Posted

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
