It's ahh Compaq P4 1.8GHz 512Meg/ GeForce FX 5200 Video/256Meg video ram. Also Creative 5.1 sound, ViewSonic 17' LCD monitor. The MS broadband station on top is configured as a switch only so I can use my laptop in the living room wirelessly. Dialup works fine with it

And you see what's on the monitor...

I don't have a picture of my desk, and it's actually quite clean right now.

You'd be blasted away with my awsome Dell Optiplex, which is hidden next to the desk, and the still awsome Linux box under the desk.

I'll whip up a quick pic of it in a sec.. will edit soon

Okay, mine.

Low quality picture. The camera's having a bad... lens... day. Actually, the lighting in my room sucks, and flash reflects off the polished wood and makes the monitor appear white, so...

Thanks, DARKGuy. That was the case and keyboard style when I bought it about three years ago. Soon after that, they stopped using that style. Don't know if you noticed, but I've installed a HP DVD burner in the top slot that doesn't match the case...

Isn't that the hardware TGC uses to develop new products? I think they used to use ones and zeros, but ran out of zeros, and now use only ones.

Yes, that is the same hardware that TGC uses. In fact, that is Richard Davey leaning over the machine.

So, I guess you all know what Richard Davey looks like!

Well, I have 3, and the lighting sucks for all of them, because it's night, and the lights in my room are in awkward positions, so my station is bet lit when there is sunlight.

Anyway:

Attached is a slighly brighter pic of my desktop, different angle.
