Warning: Second link is an 8meg cheesy video, you WILL NOT GET THOSE TWO MINUTES OF YOUR LIFE BACK
So there is my setup for all the world to see. In the center is a nice new Dell 2405 24" Widescreen Display, 1920x1080. You see, I heard rumors on the Internets that rosewood didn't like widescreen. I think we can put those rumors to rest. They are flanked by two Dell 2001FP 20.1" 1600x1200 displays. Up and to the left of these beauties is a Dell 1905FP 19" 1280x1024 display. All four of those monitors are hooked up via DVI. The monitor on the upper right is a Dell 1704FPV 17" 1280x1024 display hooked up to my server currently. Under all of that is a Dell Axim x50v running at 640x480.
In the video you also will see the wife's Dell 1704FPV as well as her Dell Inspiron 9300 with a 17" UXGA Widescreen display.
For those curious about the hardware, along with the 2405, some new pieces and parts also came from such vendors as Newegg.com and Monarch Computer Systems today. Inside of a sexy Lian Li PC-V1000B is an AMD X2 4200+ sitting on an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum with 2 gigs o' ram. The video card is just an XFX Geforce 7800GT as well as two SAPPHIRE RADEON 7000s to give the extra DVI ports that I need. Other notable additions include a pair of 320GB 7200RPM Sata drives from WD, the ones with the 5yr coverage, two 250GB 7200RPM Sata WD Drives, one 200GB 7200RPM EIDE WD Drive, one NEC 3500 & one NEC 3540A for optical drive action and of course those Logitech Z-680 speakers that everyone hates how I have positioned.
What do I use all this shit for? I run my own small business consulting / networking business. I go out to small (more specifically micro, as in < 10 people) businesses and help them get shit done and continue to get shit done. So this means I spend a LOT of time on the phone every day, a lot of time VPNing into remote systems, taking notes, sending emails and IMs, reading a lot of crap on that old web, browsing the MS newsgroups, downloading porn, and playing games when its time to blow of steam. I have also gotten in the hobby of digital video (really new at that obviously) and digital photography. All of this means I use all of those displays damn near all the time. With no real TV in the house (no cable, just the COX HSI for internet), that Dell 2405 is now the main display for the wife and I to play Dreamcast (a.k.a. NES emulation), Xbox, watch movies or stuff that I have Tivo'd. The Axim just keeps me on task during the day and reminds me to stop with the F5 and get out and earn some fucking money.
I will totally admit this is an e-penis post to the nth degree. However, I worked my ASS off for this rig (and rigs if you count the A64 server, the A64 box for my wife, the laptops, etc.) and I wanted to share my setup. I also wanted to e-penis slap the guy who called my setup ghetto.
Notes to Shackers...
dognose Yes, this lets me have stuff blowing up on a total of 7,454,720 pixels.
rsustudent Yes, I didn't tell you about this while you were getting your cool shit. I wanted to keep it a surprise. Surprise!
lacker Este es la bomba, jefe.
Xbox and Xbox360 folks - god damned RIGHT my Xbox and Xbox360 will be hooked up to this shit.
Mr. sleepy Get your degree, get a good job, and get shit like this. Seriously fool.
Toraz E-Penis engaurd!
themelon Yes, I know. You get even cooler shit. But I can rub my balls on this and not get fired.
Bean Once you get out of law school, you will be able to sue me and take it all away so its cool.
ra1n Same. And its your fault I got started on this PC shit...
Helter Skelter Yes, I know, it still doesn't have Real Time DD encoding. I'd love to get one of those sound cards very soonly.
Phil Thank you for giving me pics to fill these fine monitors with. My wife likes movies so I've managed to slip these in under the radar saying she can use them to watch movies on them.
Everyone else If it weren't for the PRL, do you know how much faster this fucker would allow me to post?!
If you are reading this post its because I put it back in an old ass ER to see how big it is, check shacktags, etc

(yeah both Dell beacuse I have to .. it sucks :( )
Option A: Stationary Dimension 8400.
P4 3.2 800Mhz FSB, 1Gb 533 DDR2, 20" 2005WFP, GF6800GTO 256Mb, 250Gb HD : approx $2400 (before my rebates)
Option B: 'Portable' Inspiron 9300,
PM 1.86 533 FSB, 1Gb 533 DDR2, 17" Ultra sharp truelife wide, GF6800 2Go 256 Mb, 80Gb HD: approx $3050 (before rebates)
I dunno, I don't have a portable (atleast not a usable one) right now, but I'm still feeling my gaming on the PC is vaning, I suspect I'll play more and more on console in the future (XBOX360) and mainly use the computer for browsing+work stuff. So what you say ? is it A or B ??

My wife had a good time, and discovered that women can get her all hot and bothered under the right circumstances, I got a quality lapdance with a nice, non-skanky stripper...and some crazy stripper gave a friend of mine a handjob in the Champagne room, and then later tried to give another friend a blowjob.
Good fucking times.

The mother of two murdered children in New Hampshire is heading to the Midwest this month to launch a new search for their bodies. Terri Knight’s two children went with their father to a fireworks display two years ago. He admitted he killed them and buried their bodies, but he couldn’t say where.
--- I’ll be riding really good for maybe two weeks, and then it will, I’ve hit some slumps that I thought I’ve never get out of.
Police searched several states hoping to find the children, but no luck. Since he made his confession, the father died in prison, taking any clues he might have with him to his grave.
From the underlined part, what does "good" exactly mean? Is it like either
"I'll be riding a frigging good long while"
or
"I'll be happily riding my way to New Hampshire to find the bodies"?
My guess is pretty much the former but maybe I'm wrong and I also need some comments from native english speakers to prove that I'm either wrong or right.

What was the deal with Captain and Tennille? Sure, they had the #1 hit in 1975 but they still even managed to pull out a #5 in 1980. But how the hell did they even pull that off? THey have to be one of the bigest music flukes in the history of the world.
The poor Captain. I mean, he starts out so strong. He is a Captain! And he gets first billing! But then Tennille just makes him a total bitch. I mean, look at how little mic time the Captain got. Not just on the songs, but in interviews, etc. It makes you wonder if she really was singing to Captain. Considering how sexual these songs are, do you think she yelled out Captain while doin it? But the poor bastard even is told that he belongs to her in the damned song. IF he hasn't managed to pull rank in the 30 years since that song, I think its about time he gets his act together.
But beyond the Captain are all those fucking keyboards! Did they really need 20 some keyboards arranged around them like I keep my monitors? Holy fucking shit. I don't think it was love that kept them together so much as a debt to some traveling keyboard shyster!
So god damned glad I was born after that crazyness. You know, in the more respectable era of madonna and huge cone bras!
