That's an insane collection! Where did you buy those cool X Men?
 
Cleaned up, re-did some wiring. Don't mind the hanging wire; that was taken care of right after I took the shot.

My girlfriend's cat tore up my leather chair. I still haven't forgiven it for that.

Oh, and here are our cars after this week's snowstorm. Took me over three hours to shovel the driveway on that day.

Damn, that looks really bad.
And cold ...

P.S. I was talking about the cars.
 
Man, all that snow makes me wanna move to Miami!

My updated workstation (added new speakers; still deciding on a bigger LCD):

My laptop is a emachines N-10. Shitty but enough for internet work. The poster I got from eBay. I'm sorry but they don't make them anymore.
 
Lawl. I should take another picture. Go look back at post 730 on pg 37. Freaking cleaned everything up, wired everything... I'm in my guest room right now with my computer. Everythings in here, painting it tomorrow when I get up... pics will be up when I'm done painting hopefully! Wish I had the money for 5500's and the 24" Westy so I could finish off wiring and show everything off... :/

Here be my little setup Matties. Thanks for sharing everyone!

The Ent Center

IMG_0160.jpg


The a-05 (e6600, 2gb Dominator pc8500, p5n32-e, 8800 GTX, LG HD-DVD/Blu-Ray player, Corsair HX620, 250gb [os], 300 [apps], 750 [media]))

A Vudu hooked up to my Westy 1080p (Love the Westy. Very good picture, and great value.)

Love the Vudu too. Since I have the a-05 hooked up to the tv I can watch movies via iTunes directly, so there was no point in an AppleTV. However a Vudu i tried out because movies come out quickly on it, it has major studio backing, and it plays movies instantly. After you get it, it takes about 3 days to load up on movies and works like a p2p network. The interface and remote are very intuitive, and there is a huge selection. It dropped in price from $399 to $295, so it is a worthy addition to any entertainment center.

The picture isn't quite up there with playing an actual Blu-Ray, but it beats out Apple movies IMHO. Gotta give my Wii-Wii some love too. Check it out

How I game on the Westy:rolleyes:

This pic doesn't do the Vudu justice in terms of picture quality, but I'll post it anyway.

My work desk - dominated by the "Red Demon" (my tj07)

IMG_0174.jpg



Red Demon specs

Silverstone Temjin tj07 with Smooth-Creations auto paint job
Abit ip-35 Pro mobo
4 gb Mushkin pc6400 ram
Intel Core 2 Quad q6600 cpu overclocked to 3.2 from stock 2.4
XFX 8800 GTX Ultra video card
Swiftech watercooling
ATI tv tuner
Creative Soundblaster soundcard
150gb RaptorX 10,000 [Vista + Fedora via grub]
3 x 74 gb Raptors in RAID array with Netcell card
400gb drive (Data)
500gb drive (Media)
250 gb drive [XP + Ubuntu via grub]
200gb drive [Linux Mint]
1tb Lacie drive

Apple Time Capsule - my network is more cooperative now. After my Leopard upgrade on my Macbook Pro and Mac Mini (modded to C2D from stock Core Solo), they were having issues with my WORKGROUP. However, aside from a few complaints, the 1TB Time Capsule was a worthy upgrade from my WRT54G. The network runs faster, and everything is more tightly coupled, and all machines see each others and shared volumes. The initial backups through Time Machine and the network were slow (my 250gb on my MBP, my 310gb on my Mini [160gb + 250gb Lacie], and my rommdog's 120gb MB [white]). But after that, the incremental backups go pretty quickly, and network speed isn't affected too much.

Love the familiar OSX like interface on the Time Capsule, but getting it to play nice with my Westell DSL modem took some tweaking and playing around.

Here's my Time Capsule on top of a D-link swtich and the POS Westcell
You'll see black 1TB Lacie in front of them. I dig the chassis on it, and it is a great value for $200, but it is a bit loud, but recommended for ext storage.

Here are the tj07's innards.

Agile, you have less computers it seem or maybe you just spread them out more.

I can only use so many computers - 2 Macs, and 2 PCs keeps me occupied. I work 60 hrs /wk + take 4 classes, and have 1 girlfriend and 3 cats. With 4 computers, that is a full time schedule. That doesn't mean I don't have 2 Voodoo cases and tons of parts lying around......;)

Don't think they make that model anymore. I had my massive CRT on this thing for a while and it never sagged from the weight. It's 1" think with a tension bar for adjustment and cable management underneath. I've had it for a few years now. Here is some info anyway...

Sauder Main Desk 9348-110
Sauder Side Desk 9336-110
Sauder Blind Corner 9358-110
Sauder Keyboard Shelf 9311-110
Sauder Rolling Pedestal 9301-110

Each was purchase separately. If I remember correctly it was around $1000 for everything. There was also a hutch that could of been added on.

Enough info for you?
