If no-one gives your an answer to a question you have asked, consider:- Is your question clear.- Did you ask nicely.- Are you showing any effort to solve the problem yourself

ahh showing off your pretty ladies...

This is my computer..

I'm at work, and I don't have a camera anyway..

But when I get my new case I'll take a real pic of my workstation

Enjoy!

(everything's labeled)

ahh yes.. and I have the computer on top of my desk because it's a desktop, and I really don't want to place it sideways into my cabinet, and besides, it's easier to get at the chords when it's up there

Actually the TV was a great deal--- only $10 at an auction because the dealers said it didn't work (they didn't have cable to test it with so of course it didn't work!). But anyways it's a great TV by the way.

I plug all the consoles into that little device next to the amplifier on top of the TV (under the controller)--- and I just press the button of the device I want to use and it routes the connection into my VCR then into my TV. It's pretty sweet except I need to find a way to get rid of the ugly cables....

Enough with the hugs, guys!

I agree with DBAlex--- the Dreamcast had SO much promise. I have over 100 games for it, and the great majority of them are better than most of the games I've seen even on the Xbox. To see it get washed away so quickly like every Sega machine before it (after the Genesis), was truly sad.

That diagram totally whoops Jerico's. The detail of the books, the 3d element on the wall, pure art.

We use a dell for the internet computer (optiplex gx100). The fact that they have a custom floppy drive on some models ticks me off.

I always had a soft spot for the dreamcast, they're a lot like Gamecubes I reckon, they both have these unique games that you just don't get anywhere else - I played through JetGrindRadio and it just strikes me how the Xbox SEQUEL could possibly play and look worse than the trusty DC version. UT on dreamcast trounced the PS2 version, same goes for Quake3 - at the time these were the daddies of FPS games and DC had all the aces, even the hobbiest port of Quake1 rocked.

I have a DC, gamecube and xbox hooked up - all my older stuff is in the attic gathering dust, I'm not even sure what's up there now. I just got my son the new slim PS2 for his birthday, now I don't often say this, but it impressed the hell outta me. It's like half the size you assume it is - like take a CD box and add an inch in width and height and your pretty close! - it's a lot quieter too, barely noticable in fact. It's just a shame that it's still only a PS2 .

I usually find myself playing the gamecube more than anything, Pikmin2 rocks, but I recently got Men of Valor for XBox, which is simply the only console 'nam game worth playing. Been on tour with my little brother, killing gooks and burning villages - seriously it's the first time in ages that I've bought a game that I really like (and only £23 from gamestation!).
