    ooh, I see! One of my mates has a Symantec mug too!

    Sorry to pollute this thread, but I feel like updating my image when I arrive at university this weekend, so expect another picture or two then!

    @sammorris...what are those two first pics? Looks like your computer has spark plugs and a distributor LOL!

    @creaky: I dont know what half that stuff is in your set up LOL! I should photograph mine, I guess. Mind you, I've only got a standard HP Pavillion which serves me well, a hell of a monitor though and my digital pianos but what's unusual about my little spot is that it's under my bed! My bed is some seven feet in the air.

    Didn't spot the CPU heatsink under it? Thought that might be a giveaway! :)

    LOL! You've got the wrong guy for that! I changed a HD once while being walked thru it on the phone. That's the one and only time I've even seen the inside of a computer !

    8 Meg DSL? That's what I signed up for, I get about 6.5 line, but the speed is dropped and the connection goes every 12 hours because of our burglar alarm, which was invented long before microfilters. It was probably installed before the 14.4k modem!
    A computer in McDonalds? Where abouts? The Brentwood one doesn't have one I don't think!

    Yeah that's pretty snazzy lol although it might be to hide the 5 year old Dell Optiplex that's probably underneath...

    Kings Cross. There are two within 100 yards of each other. But bear in mind that Kings cross station is prob. the biggest in Britain.. 6 tube lines, thameslink line, wagn line, gner trains (that take you all over britain), and shortly eurostar. So i guess the internet thing is just a one off, cause Kings X is such a busy place. It's also full of tramps and junkies, but that's "not for here.." :)

    Dell Optiplex? No way.. trust me, after using it, I don't think even Dell could make such a useless compy. You have to bash those metal buttons, so no fast typing. Also, people are eating greasy "burgers" while using it so it's "unhygienic." So it's not out of place in Kings X.

    Nah, the underground station may be the most complex of any, but I doubt it's the biggest overall. Waterloo is huge, and Paddington is also pretty sizeable. Considering its status, the mainline section of Kings Cross is pretty small.

    I hate to bring up a sensitive subject buy Kings Cross sounds familiar; isn't that one of the areas hit in that nastiness the july before last?
