    Testing a projector... Actually pretty old picture, since EVERYTHING has changed after that.
    Underneath the projected image, is my 32" TV -> currently 43" 4k tv
    and my gaming PC in a cube case -> currently all tempered glass tower.

    On the side dual 24" HP 2475 monitors, one in a stand with docking station for my elitebook 8560w.
    Currently, 27" HP and 23"+24" Dell triple monitor setup and a matx desktop tower with GTX970 from my former gaming PC (to run triple monitors).

    Desk has changed from DIY version to old Ikea computer desk, the chair broke and I bought a new one :D
    Even the modem is gone, since I'm on a gigabit fiber now... :p

    And I moved the projector into the living room anyways.

    Hmm. Almost everything. I still have both keyboards and one mouse in use and the speakers changed from gaming pc to the surfboard I'm using right now.

    Anyways.... I was trying to point out how great the monitor & laptop stand is, even if I don't use it right now.

    That is actually with the eGPU. the M.2 cable is going from under the keyboard between the LCD panel gap to under the table.

    The setup ran great for the 3 months i used it for. I had 0 issues running a 1080 Strix.

    Large size mousepads are the best, as my sensitivity in games is on the lower end.

    I believe it is normally something like 200-250. Way too much for my taste but I kept tabs on it and checked prices every now and then. Eventually one shop just listed it for 65. When I made the purchase I realized the shop was in my home town so I even got local pickup, no postage added. I guess it was a pricing error since the whole product vanished from their webshop for a while after that... :D
