I'll post mine once I find some image hosting sites. Imageshack doesn't let me keep my pictures on it.

Bed-top set-up



HP Dual-core Entertainment Notebook on base unit
42" XCanvas 1080p Monitor/TV
HP remote keyboard and mouse (runs OK on the bed)
Onkyo Amp
Paradigm Mini-Monitor mains
Paradigm 12" PDR sub with built-in amp
Cheap-azz Inkel surrounds under the bed

Notebook detaches and runs off wifi if I want. Everything is currently crammed in here until the wallpapering is done in the entertainment room next door.

Well, I am at work so I am posting my office setup



How many systems do you count? Oh and my monitor setup is a 20" on the left, and a sad 17" on the right. But I will soon be getting a better monitor.

I have nearly the same setup as you do except I've got smaller speakers and a different monitor Smile

I've got the wireless keyboard and mouse, is yours Infrared, bluetooth or radio?

Damn I can see a lot going on there Smile

You said you were getting a better monitor, a Dell? 24" monitors nowadays are pretty cheap.

PS. Check your PM.

When you buy the HP xb3000 base station, it comes with a wireless remote. It just automatically works with the station -- nothing needs to be installed for it all to work. It's made by Logitech, I see on the back.

I know it's not bluetooth. It is wireless somehow. I don't see any infrared window on the keyboard or mouse. You can see the sensor on top of the left speaker. You don't have to have it in view to work.

It could be using radio frequency to transmit info between devices, like the one that I have (2.4Ghz). I love it because the kb/mouse still works in my bed even under the blankets.

Here you go. My desktop plus Vaio laptop. Plus glass of cabernet sauvignon.



And, as a special bonus, inside the desktop so you can see the very awesome and effective Zalman 9500 heatsink fan. These Zalman guys know what they are doing.




All the details.

Intel 930 D 3.0
Asus P5LD2 deluxe
Forsa 7900GT GPU
2 GB Samsung 5300 RAM
Acbel 450W PSU
Eng XP
Viewesonic 20.1 widescreen monitor.
Epson CX3905 printer/scanner.

It's a great stable system. I went from decoding DVD's in 25 minutes to 12 minutes.

One downside.....The P5LD2 motherboard doesn't seem to support Core2 Duo processors. My upgrading path seems limited.

Eamo for some strange reason I always thought you were a girl.

Anyway, sorry guys I haven't posted any pictures yet as my place is a mess.

Would like to see more especially from the Macfans on this board Rolling Eyes
