    My desk has literally layers of papers... Some of them important, and some from last school year.

    That cat warmer is actually hand made by my friend's mom :)

    I couldn't agree more. Those speakers are 10 years old.... still going strong, but it needs to be upgraded soon.

    No, but I'm actually thinking of getting a PS3 to play bluray movies :)

    I cleaned up the pile of computers & crap next to my bed a bit, bit more open now.

    [​IMG]

    although I just got a hairdryer sunfire 480R which with the crap on top of it blocks the openness again lol. For the hairdryer reference...solaris reports the CPUs are 53-54C when idle...or doing stuff...and it has 2 120mm 4kRPM fans blowing over them. I can hear it downstairs with my door open. moar infoz

    Yeah, this was my sister's room before mine and I never took anything down. Those stars were there as long as I could remember.
    Sorry for the big picture, did not check before I uploaded.

    All the setup's above are nice :D

    @Mechrock...you can still edit that picture if you wanted so it doesn't make the page so large...You could upload to Imageshack or Photobucket and attach as an Thumbnail or a lower Res., or simply use the *Manage Attachments* Option above (appears as a *fileclip*) in the option above when adding/editing a posting, and it will automatically..thumbnail it for you! :D

    It's a great phone, but the S60 platform isn't as flexible and scalable as I'd like it to be, hence I've been using it pretty much like a dumb phone while the Omnia with WinMo is much more practical as a PIM + PMP + Phone.

    I've got my N78 setup to sync my contact list between my phone and Outlook 2007 every time I get within BT range, pretty nice.

    The main reason I got this phone was for GPS + Google Maps Mobile, since Google has a pretty nice S60 native Google Maps app, and for this it doesn't disappoint.

    But you don't need the iPhone when you have a Windows Mobile handset. It works just as well and is far more flexible. Also helps that you don't own a phone that is identical to the person sitting next to you. I'd hate that.

    lol well said :D

    Thats why I don't have an iPhone as well - there are way too many people keeping up with the 'Jones's' when it comes to mobiles :rolleyes:

    I have an iPod touch though - same thing at the end of the day minus the phone part...and a SE C905.

    and to keep it on topic - have been doing some major sorting and purging of excess stuff at home so will get some pics up this evening when I get home :cool:

    It's a love story between a vampire and a human girl ok SPOILER ... and in the end two vampires xD

    She is Bella Swan, he is Edward Cullen^^

    The Cullens are are "family" of vampires who don't eat humens :) They call them selfs "vegetarians" because they only drink the blood of animals :cool:

    There are 4 books, Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, Braking Dawn and a "no completed book" Midnight Sun, the last is about the first 4(?) chapters in the perspectiv of Edward, normaly (book 1-4) it's bella perspectiv or some times the perspective of a human friend, Jakob Black, he becomes a ... hm ... I would discribe it like a druid in WoW, but he can only be a bear or human^^ There are also some more like him ... and there are also bad vampires^^

    You see it's a bit confusing, but the style it's written is awsome!

    I never read books, only for school, but after my sis toled me to read it I spent my nighttime for reading and couldn't stop^^

    You see the book is a drug so be carefull^^

    I beg to differ, do not respect the Twilight ... or in that case Moo either.

    Respect the 1337!

    Ok, back on topic, nice rooms everyone!
