    Actually it's a 32xbr6. I was going to go with a bigger one, but with the size of my room, and my college student budget, I got a deal from a friend, who happens to be a sales floor manager at ABC Warehouse, that I couldn't refuse.

    I just picked it up about 2 weeks ago and have been loving every minute of it.

    I like your setup....Your desk is placed in a very nice space...It's clean and simple, and you've got 2 great lighting sources..indoors and outdoors!!

    Its great when you can take advantage of having your desk space nearby a window for natural light!!! Nice monitors :D


    Cin ;) :)

    So what counts as my computer room... the office where my desktop is, or the media room with the 5.1 surround sound and the PC hooked up to the 61" DLP? I need to know, so I can take pix :p

    If that's the case... here's my office (20" screen's off, I'm too lazy to turn it on)

    [​IMG]

    And here's the media center (with the 720p BBC version of Planet Earth on screen)

    [​IMG]

    The media center has a 2.7GHz Athlon X2 7750 black edition, 4GB of RAM and a RAID5 array of 4 1TB drives, integrated graphics. It also does SPDIF to the 5.1 surround sound system including a 12" sub, so that's pretty slick, too. Flip through the movies I have on the drive with the Harmony 550, select one, watch it in surround sound, all without leaving the couch once (except for beer). The desktop has an Athlon X2 4600+, 2GB RAM, and a RAID5 of 750GB drives that used to be in the media center ;) So, 2.8TB of space in the media center after formatting, 700GB of space in the desktop.

    Please go to DESKTOPreview.com to talk about desks. lol jk. Its really nice i want to get the hutch but cant afford it. Its really sturdy the only gripe i have is i came out of the shower and a bit of water dripped off my hair onto the desk. Well i thought some bit of crusty food was on the desk and started to pick at it and tore off a peice of the finish. You might be able to see it infront of my dv7.

    I remember back in 2004, my first LCD monitor was a Samsung Syncmaster 173P. I really loved that model. I´ve played FarCry with an ATI9800Pro (modded to 9800XT)... Does anyone has that monitor? [​IMG]
