    How does that work out for you? If I don't have ridiculous amounts of desk space I freak.

    @datamonger128--wish I had another filing cabinet or speaker that big sitting on the other side of my desk.....that could come in handy more than you'd know! :D

    Great collection of machines BTW ;) lol

    @Kierkes
    Well, I'm not entirely sure how well it's going to work since I just got the desk today. We'll see though.

    @Huskerz85
    Thanks for the compliment on the collection of comps. After I take my Christmas tree down, I plan on putting my stereo equipment on a smaller desk that is next to the big one and I'll have some awesome sound for my main computer.

    Superb setup. Very original, simple, clean, and spacious. Especially like how the speakers seem to "bloom" from behind the laptop, gives it a cool feel

    2 words came to my mind when I saw your setup:
    * Absolutely fabulous*!!! :D

    Your room is just awesome, everything about it. :yes:

    I really like your desk chair! ;) :cool:

    Cin ;) :)

    P.S. Are those glass paperweights on the shelf to the left (when looking at the pic)? :D

    Nice laptop; I've always been partial to the laptops with hard edges. They just look so powerful. M860TU = sexy for this reason. :D

    MR. Moo, first HTML doesn't work on the forum. Secondly your profile is set to hidden so none of the pictures can be displayed. Please use a image hosting service such as TinyPic, Imageshack, Photobucket, etc.

    The TV is this

    IMO, the 5315 looks quite good, much better than my old dell.
    Looks good from behind ad when it's closed as the back of the screen is nice.

    Uhm, one of my job is computer marketing and reviewing specialist. So I have more than 3 systems in my house :D
    Those which are in the pictures are my primary pcs. The desktop is for games and heavy tasks. The MBP is mainly for working. Little one is for traveling. Other systems are for benchmarking / reviewing... etc. I had most of them for free. The manufacturers sent them as samples.
    Here are some examples (I took these pictures about 4 months ago):

    Currently I don't have much time for PSP, but there are Naruto 2, some RPG and Yugioh in it :D I'm thinking about exchange it for my friend's DS Lite in a few months :D (He is bored with his DS Lite, too :rolleyes:). About the Vaio, under normal use, the battery can last around 6.5+ hours with medium screen light, wifi on, firefox and MS Word.

    The standard battery of TZ is 5800mAh... for ULV CPU, 4200rpm HDD, onboard VGA, 11.1" LED Screen -.-'
    I've experienced the CR before, the battery should be 3 hours+ at least. 1.5 is just ... abnormal. You should check it :(
