Here's my setup, the only thing stock in that eMachines is the motherboard, RAM, and the drives that came with it. I upgraded the CPU to a Phenom II X2 555 BE, tossed a 1TB drive in there, a 850watt Antec PSU, and a GTX 460. That CRT monitor is going away once I get either an IPS monitor or a KVM switch.

That nasty keyboard posted above almost made me vomit. Ugh. LOL.

I really hate computers, but it's my job. Here is my office setup:



My game/computer room. I hardly go on the computer since I deal with them all day, I just jump on one of my laptops and browse the internet for a few minutes.

I never understood why people had tons of xbox games or dvds or blu rays in a shelf in their room. It always screams out to me "HALP!!! I'm wasting money because I don't know how to burn my own movies or games or how to work a terabyte drive with blueray downloads!!". Which I am assuming you do know how to since your work set up. Why do you not go this route? Or do you but just not with gaming so not to risk getting your box banned?

You are correct, those are all xBox games. I have a total of 3 legit games, the other 70 are "backup copies" and I have two xBoxes - one modded and one legit. I bought DVD cases and printed out covers and whatnot, because I'm weird like that. I don't "backup" discs anymore since I have only played a few games for more than 5 minutes. I get bored of games (and things in general) pretty quick. Suprised I've been with my girl for the past 9/10 years.

Picture resize fail....

Here's my goodies:
Work Desk - Cleaner now than then. That was about a year ago, taken for a "What does your desk look like right now" thread on another board.


The "Media Stack" at home, also a year ago. There's service monitor where the laptops are, and an LCD monitor in place of the CRT. I have a printer on the floor in front of the stack, and 2 laptops in docking stations next to that.



I have a bunch of servers in another room that are waiting to go into a rack that's out in the garage. One is a DC/file server for my home LAN, another is a music server for my internet radio station (radionosferatu.com), another is an experimental box that I'm building up to be a SharePoint server, another is an FTP server, and the last one is a Tickets (open source Computer Aided Dispatch) server that I'm playing with. I have a couple more servers that I'm going to be playing around with in the next couple of months. I'll get pictures of everything once it's done.

I happened to have that picture saved for a while now.

My desk is currently a coffee table with a laptop. My real desk is covered in boxes of ammo, magazines, random papers and whatnot.
