    The mini display in my media player, there are 2 computers in the big tower, so while im gaming or whatever I can have my music playing on the smaller computer, so the bigger gaming PC only has to concentrate on the gaming and not both music and gaming.

    Well, this is a fun thread! Some pretty wicked setups here, it's nice to have a permanent home :). Here's my setup:

    [​IMG]

    Two Elitebook 8530s, one maxed out main machine and one for writing and backup (both software and hardware :)). Also, a Nokia BH 503 Bluetooth headset for audio/music and a cheap Panasonic dynamic mic + desktop tripod for recording (still much better than the integrated mic array).

    Actually they look like my Swans D1080MKII. But they are a bit bigger than mine. Maybe I found my next speakers.

    Thanks.

    Different kind of typing (pushing force and how deep you have to push the button) as well as how loud the sound is.

    Blue is generally the best for writing but also makes a very loud "click/clack" when writing.
    Black is nice for gaming.
    Brown is somewhere in the middle of both + not so loud.
    Red should be even better than Brown but I think it still costs a lot.

    There are a few more (like white) but no ideas about those :p

    Hi!

    At the antree, i`m sorry for my english, i`m from poland, i`m 19yo and i`m beginner in english :)


    When I look at your desks, i`m shocking. Most of you have ultra strong computer and minimum two LCDs on desk o.o Probably standard of living on west is greater than it seems to me. In poland can buy a compact car for your electronics on your desks! A lot of you have alienware o.o mx18 in poland cost 15k zl, for this cash can buy this car----> BMW 328 KOMBI (1962853515) - Aukcje internetowe Allegro . God damn it.
    I show you, how is looking typical informatic-electronic desk in poland.

    I only have one computer and no monitor :( 15" business Dell.

    I was going to get a 28" 1200p monitor today for very cheap, but couldn't convince myself to pay $200 when I already have a working monitor attached to my laptop :(

    I feel that the $12 + shipping that Monoprice charges for a 6ft DisplayPort-to-HDMI cable is (relative to my other expenses) too much, so my 24" 1080p TV is just sitting on my fridge, being unused for now.

    Was about to comment that you have a tiny desk, then realised it's a M18x, so must be a big desk! :D

    Laptop looks great, plus the screen saver for the iPad is quite fitting!

    Currently this is my only laptop and only computer (I don't own a desktop), it's the second one that I have (the 1st one is a junk quality HP Pavilion dv6t that broke down after only 6 months).

    Dell Vostro 1014, bought in February 2010 (nearly 2 years old).
    Specs:
    Core 2 Duo T6670 2.2GHz
    WD 320GB 5400rmp
    Mobile Intel 4 series express chipset family (IGPU)
    4GB DDR2 800MHz

    I'm quite pleased with it, but after having it about 5 months I found out it's only a budget level-laptop (a person chosed it for me,I didn't choose it by myself).

    Now running windows 7 Home Premium on it, everday tasks are OK, but gaming and 1080p videos streaming seems cannot satisfy me...

    I don't know Acer too well, but I don't think that's the 5920G... The 5920G only has a standard keyboard, while that one has a full keyboard. Correct me if I'm wrong, and mind my lack of proper terms. ;)
