    You have that barrier thing under your desk. It must be hell to have some cables fall off, or install some new thing. I know from firsthand experience. :(

    why do people need to be using more than one computer in the same place at the same time?

    Maybe they do different things on different computers? Maybe their desktops, are also their workspace (for the kind of work they do for a living)?

    You'll need lots of social and business connections. Some companies in my country, I knew and supported from when they had only a few people (4-5) with a small shop, now most of them have 4-5 big showrooms with over 100 employees and they become valuable information sources for my job.
    FIY: I don't have any degree or certification of IT, my study is all about diplomatic (political stuff) and foreign study. :D

    Same situation, different desk. Thing is though, I have my computer elevated on a shelf that is attached to the desk, so I see cables anyway, lol. My setup is somewhere in this thread; I might reupload.

    I'm currently purchasing my whole desktop setup one by one, and a thought just hit me to make my experience da shizzle.

    An office-style massage chair.

    Oh my gawd, I am so doing it. Ultimate entertainment rofl.

    Nice...you must have a great interior designer who does the same room *all over the net* :p :rolleyes: :eek: :confused:

    See below.

    Too bad it's not your *own room*....If your going to post pic's at least post your own room...Not something you replicated from the net' :(

    Yes, you did Valkyriel: Here:

    That room is more like 3 years old..not 8 months.. :(
    Therefore, I doubt that the *theater room* is legit', also...

    This is a great thread when peep's post their *own* legit rooms. ;)

    70 is not so bad!.... ;) That's a sweet guitar! :cool:

    I like that style..Mine is kind of the same, I'm just looking for a new chair right now! :D

    Thanks but luck had something to do with it, I remember on a par 5 during that round went for the green in 2, my shot was headed out of bounds then hit a tree about 15-20 yards deep and came back out onto the fairway, chipped up and got a birdie, it was one of those rounds. Got to love golf, no matter how bad your round was there is always that 1 shot you look back on that actually was good.

    I am also looking for a new chair, that one has almost no cushion left to it. Guess I will be looking for that comfort zone soon.

    LOL..I understand..the arm is wearing out on mine :D

    I'm looking for something antiquey to go with my desk, and that is really comfy. And, perhaps I'm being to fussy, but I want something I'm going to be happy with.

    I've been checking the local Antique & retro shops to no avail!

    Here is what I'm sort of looking for: It's a nice chair, and I can throw some nice *throw* pillows on it! :D (chick thing) :rolleyes:

    1 fluffy one + 1 large blanket = 1 comfortable chair :)

    My desktop is an older (2 years in puter age) Aurora 7500 Athlon 64 x2 6000+, bringng it back to life, just added some Ram, a new HD and currently looking to upgrade that 7950 GT to a GTX 280.

    My laptop kills it at the moment, but the upgrades should give it a fighting chance.

    Boo!! ive owned dozens of computers/TV's/displays.right from 5 inch up to my old 62 inch plasma, even 62 inches is small for me now

    I have a 1080P front projector ,well over 100 inchs that I hook up everything to,Laptop,computers,consoles,blu ray player,ps3,HD sat box.

    [and right now waiting on my new custom screen that does different aspect ratio's,something a plasma,LCD tv never will do]
    http://www.smxscreen.com/pro-mask-curv-masking.html

    Any display under 100 inches is garbage to me,and a waste of money , you'll understand once u experience it in your home. ;)

    dude, you gotta prove ur credibility cuz you've failed in that department already. How about you retake the picture above and the picture with your 'sweet computer room setup' with some sort of ownership indicator (paper with your screen-name written on it in the picture), then we can take u seriously.

    If you are going to continue post to pics and not give credit to the original individual(thx cin' for finding the owner of this setup) who owns the setup, then they will be deleted and you will continue to get infractions and subsequently be banned.

    Edit: guys stay on topic...there is no need to berate the user.
