Hi guys has anyone used this as a desk and do you think it will last or should i look for something abit more expensive ? http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/S49872826

That's what I used (well 2 of them) they're great.

Awesome setup, I have two monitors too, Dell 2407 (main) and 2208, you've inspired me to rotate the 2208 into portrait, but how do you get a different wallpaper on the portrait monitor?

I'd use Ultramon - http://www.realtimesoft.com/ultramon/

Thanks . It's in landscape atm but portrait is great for word docs and web pages.


Yeah, Aj said it, Ultramon is awesome, gives a taskbar on the second screen too .

you must be very tight with your money of your a very good haggler

 

[Mr. May]

not tight i will splash out when i have not got the money if something is a good deal as you will always kick yourself when you dont take it up and think back that could have been mine, Me personally i just try to make the most of what i've got as most people do but some dont have the patience of others and as the great saying goes all good things come to thoes who wait

 

[sheldore]

Here's mine. Changed from the Cosmos Pure to the CM 690 II Advanced brilliant little case and also went to three monitors.

I know it's well cluttered but I like everything I use near me.

Thanks

 

[Digitalle]

I know it's well cluttered but I like everything I use near me.

That's is a proper mans setup The sterilised and censored setups we have come accustomed to in this thread are majority overrated.

 

[Spook187]

saved from the floods sheldore..

 

[sheldore]

Didn't get near me thankfully other end of cockermouth.

 

[Alfie]

I've just moved house, here is my new setup. Hope you like

 

[Muel]

Would you like an NC10 to go with that N210?

 

[sunlitsix]

Picked up the new xbox on friday, looks way better than the old white console imo. Nice and shiny. Only problem is that it's a real dust magnet.

 

[roman59]

Yep got my 360 on friday morning as well

Nice and quiet, but yes its a dust magnet like the old Ps3 was

Cheers

They are the Logitech Z5500's. The PC is connected via Coax and the Xbox 360 connected via Optical so I get surround sound from both.

 

[YoungOzzy]

Mr May, what kind of gadets do you have running on that portrait monitor.

 

[Subliminal Aura]

Brilliant !

BTW What is he running on the third monitor ? It's not simply rainmeter is it ?
