Finally got my semi-new PC up. Took me a couple months, but this is how it looks now. My home setup... with a very messy desk, but it's got my friend's laptop hooked up, and I just need to plain ol' clean up the desk. Gotta have the coke, though! Not that I have any problem with other sodas, but Coke is just what was handy. Full specs are in my sig. Preparing for Half-Life 2, baby!

It may be a bunch of cables, but the damn videocard is so big it pretty much prevents me from organizing any of the cables. Most of what is there are just the cables that go to the CDRW/DVD drive and 3 HDD's. But my system's 100% stable, and running my games at nice speeds. Such as Doom III at 1024*768 with no loss in frames. That's all I really care about.

good lord, no! HPs are awful! in fact all those pre-built computers are terrible, but i'd put Dell slightly ahead because those cases (see ipswitch's pic) are actually "normal" and not those cramped up little POSes they are selling these days.

Yay. No more clutter. I had a couple hours to rearange, so I didn't waste any time. My new setup, and some games/dragon ball/music cd's and stuff I've been collecting for a few years. Time is your friend. The pillows? I have no clue, they were stuck here while I was in wyoming. *sigh*.

Well it's taken almost a year, but I have managed to build my set up and get it placed where I want it and set up how I want it.......
Now I just have to hide wires ( please note the god aweful wire attached to the VCR is from a Dreamcast , Windows Media Center Edition owns Line 1 in on VCR )Also why use a cheepy $60 web cam when you run ATI in your system. My Pimpcam is a Hi-8 800 X Digital Zoom
