I really do like your mITX build.
You seem to have a competitors website on your monitor, i would try and photoshop it out before the mods see.

Thanks mate. Cba to edit it out tbh.

It's a damn cool mousemat. For the tenner it cost I'm mega impressed (I have tried to get rid of the crappy orange logo though - It's just spun around under the monitor now)

On the upside, after some more calls to TNT, my monitor arrived

Whats the surround for around the monitor?

May I ask what that Vauxhall Recaro is like? I have a mint one from a Cavalier SRi and was going to convert as office chair. In your experience is it worth the effort?

Monitor hood, only seen them on Eizo screens, that screen doesn't look like an Eizo so maybe aftermarket?

What screen is it btw?

Moeks · 4 Mar 2010 at 22:54

That screen is an Eizo, I can see the logo in the bottom right on the bezel.

mrk · 4 Mar 2010 at 23:08

Oh heh, I mistook that for some kind of energy star sticker

sorn21 · 4 Mar 2010 at 23:23

Protecting against glare I think?

Eizo CG241W

What's the deal with the... 'extra bits' around the screen? Is it to give you the effect of tunnel vision?

EDIT: Only just seen all the other questions about that

Bradley8988 · 4 Mar 2010 at 23:35

Glare i guess? Arnt they super expensive professional screens?

gee3000 · 4 Mar 2010 at 23:37

Those monitors are for designers/photographers/etc, so I assume the 'hood' is there to reduce glare or other distortions caused by room lights..

Adrianr · 5 Mar 2010 at 00:02

Spot on

Cuts out stray colours and glare falling on the screen to increase colour accuracy. No point calibrating your monitor only to have some orange streetlight from your window fall on it and ruin all your hard work. When retouching I work in a dark room with no light falling on the screen what-so-ever.

This image shows the hood a little better..

I just had to laugh when this thing turned up. Bloomin halariously big. Shame my monitor was 'attempted' delivery the one hour of the day I had to pop out!

What mouse mat is that you are using?

Thanks, seems to have quite a few good reviews so I've just ordered one - really needed to upgrade from my old crappy mat
