    I believe that is a custom cooler. It's always easy to make a switch by unlocking some screw :)

    Probably not for long.
    The one time I didnt buy an EBM Papst or Delta as a fan, I bought two 80mm LED fans from newegg. Two of the four LED's on one of the fans are already burned out. One on the other fan is burned out as well. I mean what kind of quality is that. I maybe used my external a total of 20 hours in a year, and the blue lights are already dead. So I dont think munchkin man is going to have to worry about the LED's in a while :p

    Thats quite a nice setup you have there data, it may be quite packed but the space is well used.

    Heres my new setup.

    The glass is a couple of MM thick so i was thinking i would put some powerful leds behind the sheets and try and illuminate the glass with a powerful blue.

    And i actually have wireless mice now :)

    I really need to learn this damned forums code for resizing images! :S instead of trying to patiently find it for 2 hours.

    That ain't half of all my computers! I have, on the bottom of the smaller desk, my old Gateway from the early part of the decade. I also have a Mac Classic which is in a box, an iMac which is sitting under my shelves that have all my DVDs on it, a dual processor Pentium III system and Power Macintosh G3 next to my TV, and a Macintosh LCII in my closet. As for laptops, I have my HP Pavilion dv6458se and my Compaq Presario 1244. The Compaq got me through many boring classes in high school.

    @vaio: Your slim is sexy. It makes my launch ps3 seem ridiculous in comparison (double the price, half the storage, 50% bigger, 50% heavier, and 50% more power hungry).

    Here is where I spend my hours on the computers, I set it up to be cozy. Big chairs, recliner, ps3, and a 720p projector.

    Below is my old desktop beast, not exxactly cutting edge but it was pretty nice when I built it. Phenom II 940 quad @ 3.2g, 4g ddr2 1066, quad sli 9800 gx2.

    This is my work setup right now as I await my thinkpad dock. Sorry about the quality and panoramic screw up, but it is a cell phone.

    The setup consists of a Dell Power Edge 710 server dual Xeon quad core(16 logical cpus in taskmgr.exe is a blast for me :) ). An old dell AMD athlon dual core desktop Im about to reformat and pass on to our admin. And the main course is my t400! Im hoping by the end of the week my desk will only be 2x 24in lcds and mimo lcd with a docked t400 and the power edge. hopefully the USPS will get it here soon.
