    Yea I love it, I think when I get my new setup I'm going to set it up similar to that. I still havent decided wether I'm going to get 2, 19" or 20" monitors or get 1, 22" or 24" though. I'll post a pic of my new setup when I get it, the one I've got now isnt good enough to post. BTW, how big are your monitors Nephilim.

    Poor photos but the following are a few photos of my recent new system. My desk is cluttered, and I have a CRT monitor. I love it, but not everyone wants to see it, so my PC is all you're getting!

    You have a definite pimp factor going there Sam :)


    Lol, everyone's so into my ironing board! I'm borderline obsessive compulsive so all my button downs shirts and slacks have a nice crisp ironing job done to them :)

    LOL yeah I could but haven't! :D Went for the CNPS7000Alcu over the 9500 due to weight concerns. It still cools admirably. Compare my slower single core XP idling at 62C in summer, this is at 57C due to having been folding on both cores for several hours, and is shoved under a desk without that much ventilation available, and to top all the room is well above 30C ambient. 57 is the highest I've seen so far, guess it's been hottest (31C outside today, very rare for UK).

    £1250. Thanks for the compliments guys, it seems odd to get such appreciation on a site where there must be so many computers like this one...

    Yeah that's pretty much the spec in my sig, it only gets used from about 5:30 till midnight every weekday (because I work and don't leave it on when I'm out), most of the day saturday and just the evening Sundays (because I go out), but I love every minute!

    I see. Can't say I see much of the PC though, that cramped compartment must do wonders for airflow, I don't think! :DMy PC rests on the floor next to shelf where it "should" be, for airflow and being-able-to-see-it-properly reasons. My Subwoofer sits on that shelf now.

    i got half a dozen PC's on the go now, dotted throughout the house, so it's a bit tricky to show "where i'm sat"; Got my wireless sorted so now i'm all over the place; right now, sat in conservatory a fair old way away from the new wireless router (Linksys (the second crappy inferior Belkin got taken back to the shop - i will never buy Belkin again)) and it's doing great. Even setup a Linux pc in the kitchen for my ma and got that wireless'd up too, she's loving it. Must sort out a new piccy of my setup one of these days

    Yeah, it'd be interesting to see it/them, some of us only can afford/need one PC.

    naw, most of the PC's are nothing special, just old machines rebuilt; when i lived afloat i only had room for the one (very small) PC, now i have room for loads of stuff so i'm just reviving what bits of kit i can , one's even an old Pentium 133 (MMX version) with an outrageous 64MB of RAM, but it's sufficient to run DSL (Damn Small Linux) that i tried out today for he first time and liked it a lot. Just need to find out how to get the wireless running in DSL Linux on this laptop which is why i'm sat out in the conservatory. oops battery is about to give out, better plug it in.

    update- as luck would have it i found the missing part for my latest project. i needed a 100mb network card to get the P133 machine on the net. it's working a treat. What i might try next is a PCI wireless card in there, just for giggles. then i may well post a new pic. Don't expect neon lights or cutouts in the case for this particular machine, it was built in 1872 by Robert Louis Stevenson after all
