Here is my current setup. Getting a third LCD sometime in the future.
 
I saw this thread last year and was inspired to update my stuff a bit. Also, I have just discovered that my Droid X's camera sucks.

And DB: don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed.

and my HTPC:

Sorry, I had to. But seriously, that is awesome.

Yeah i got them during a valentines day sale. They were way cheap. Also got a Black Mesa coffee mug!
 
They're great. The one on the left is CF and the one on the right is LED. Get the LED version, the CF has this sort of yellowish vibe when you compare it to the richer blacks and contrasts you can achieve with the LED version.
 
Finally went through the hassle of cleaning up the wires under my desk. Doesn't look like much, but I velcored a switch to the underside of the desk and have some other wires taped to the desk as well. That and wall mounted the plasma... and that little ISK-300 on the right side is the HTPC which streams video from the server :D

On your first monitor - the one on the left - are you watching things from a TV tuner?

Blazestorm, those look like Galant top surfaces, but the underframe and legs do not. What's the story there?

No, netflix. My rig has a 6970 so I can watch movies, compress video, and play Bad Company 2 on full graphics no sweat. When I get my third monitor I'm planning to go full eyefinity.

That's awesome - I have a good graphics card in my desktop, but to really complete my setup, I need Netflix :D

It was called the "Effectiv" desk... I got it for free off craigslist. I was looking at a Galant and that config was like $250+ and then I checked craigslist that same day and found that. I guess it was what the Galant used to be.

It has a few scuffs but for free I was happy :D
 
Nothing much but works for me....

Was just screwing around with the camera today...

That's very nice shaw. I like the stainless steel. My desk is tempered glass because I hate using particle board and real wood. Damages too easily.

woah woah woah. I'm not very happy with you right now, after seeing your setup, now i'm thinking of looking into those ergotron mounts. FUCK!
 
As my forum name implies - been there done that, I got my "Cav Sandwich" in 90-91, but man oh man, I DO NOT MISS THOSE DAYS. Best wishes, stay safe, you'll be home soon enough to begin building a more stable workstation. Nice camo theme you got going there though :D


Thanks alot, second one for me, so dont even bother me any more. Cant wait to upgrade when i get home, my gift to me :)
 
I see a lot of people running Bookshelf speakers for their sound, especially in the Ikea Galant thread.

Anyone have any recommendations on where to start for a better audio setup like that? What I'd need to make it possible and some speaker recommendations?
 
I don't think it's necessary to quote 12 pictures :)

don't question my methods son!

Methods like this have to be questioned. WTF? Just quote the pic of the Ergo mount if it gives you such a [H]ard-on. Me, I was thinking about quoting that pic of the paper notepad . . . but you already did so I left it alone.

Check the Computer Audio thread, 3rd from the bottom. Great pics, advice, etc.
 
You make it sound like clean, professional, and sophisticated don't go together 99% of the time.

But it is indeed an awesome setup.

You can have professional manners and not be the cleanest person around. Additionally, sophistication does not necessarily mean you are professional.

The only issue I have with my glass desk is that it can get hard to clean. But, that's not a big deal.
 
Havent posted in awhile, finally got rid of the massive stacker 830!
