All of which went down the tubes (because both ME and DR suck!) and now I can't upgrade my ram for less money than a new computer. *sigh*
Funny! I'm also an IT collector - If you look really close in that photo you will see the joystick to my Nintendo (I also have six different computers between laptops and desktops).

Plus... I procrastinate... so... it will likely be a few years before I get my desk all decked out like I mentioned before. My next logical purchase will be a new tower+2 FP Screens but since I have a 2006 laptop from work and the weather is turning sunny here, I think I'll wait until the fall to upgrade.

As for you computer situation... You can get very good computers for under a grand from either Dell Outlet (refurbed mostly) at http://outlet.us.dell.com or from HP or other manufactures... actually, those obnoxious green light specials on http://www.geeks.com/products.asp?cat=sys sometimes show promise.

that's too much on computers to me .... my desk is pretty simple compared to that .... lower level for sub-woofer and tower, mid level for L+R speakers and surround L+R, plus obligatory mouse, keyboard and monitor, upper level for centre speaker

Snake whiskey even exists? 8| I have a lot of things to learn yet!
I, for one, am dying to find out what colour they paint Michael's toenails.

Ah, I get it. So, maybe next time you will actually clean the mirror before you take a picture of yourself through it. :)
