Heartland

Had a look about for the Currently Geeking thread, but it appears to have gone...

So. Picked up my new machine over the weekend, three gigahertz of lovely black-clad number-crunching madness. I know Iz, Dark and Motz probably all have equally fanboyish pictures, so I invite a little posting and appreciating of Heartlanders Computers.

Eagle-eyed fans will note the three CDs resting atop the tower, fine shiny gifts of noise from oop Norf, with thanks to Messrs. Scotty & Co!



Now, I have a CD-writer, and a DVD-writer. What's this weeding thing all about...?

Very fine wallpaper you have there Mister Sinister.

As far as I can see, the only down-side to renting a room. That, and having your beer nicked from the fridge, squabbling over telly rights, and only getting the house to yourself when the bills need paying.

Thank-you for noticing though. I am attempting to cover as much of the wall with pictures as possible, but no man can afford that much blu-tack.

And a webcam.....

oddly enough I was too blinded by the wall paper to notice the pc too...

I think we all noticed the wall paper
And mister Tim me thinks that table of yours needs some dusting!

Yes, thank-you everyone, the stunning revelation that a single man living alone doesn't clean up very often - astounding.

As for the webcam, it's all perfectly innocent. I'm not in some Teen Movie, nor am I Dirty Den!

And there was me thinking your desktop made even mine look like a mess

Well, it probably is at the moment

Thanks Tim, that pic of le Grantham will haunt me horribly when I try to sleep tonight.

It's about tidying up your garden and you don"t need any writer for that, only a shovel or a can of gasolene and matches

Seriously, nice machine Welcome to the world of the happy Few

Nice speaker set you have there, too, although the positioning ain't optimal

And is that a new monitor as well? Seems like the multiple choice pad for a Fingerprint Forensics exam!

The photo from my old place? Yup, plenty of Sun from that view. Trees and mountains and stuff too.

All the Sisters posters got block mounted when I moved. the Joy Div one is safely rolled away along with all the others not currently in use.

I have various little touches like that in my flat like my big bat lampshade

I'm not sure Paul would like being called that

@ the mousemat!

Wow, top setup, BoF!

Iz, as our resident Aural Guru, what would you recommend I do with my speaker arrangement? I've got the two stalks, and a subwoofer under my desk that tickles my toes...any recommendations?

Paul, I see your three CPUs, and raise you...FIVE, of which two are running at any given time.
