here's a link.  the art in the center is from someone on deviantart but it was originally on a really awful greenish background (like deviantart's theme but they put the color in themselves) so i edited it to make it a better wallpaper

edit: this was the original http://aadmm.deviantart.com/art/Team-Rocket-s-Motto-172552633?q=favby%3Aadn25%2F40386702&qo=15 i love this idea

Here is a quick tour of my stuff!


My workspace (Soon to be replaced with a better desk!)



The Laptop:


Model: 13" MacBook Pro (2010)
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.4 GHz
RAM: 4 GB DDR3 @ 1067 MHz
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M (256 MB)
OS: OSX 10.6.5 (Snow Leopard)



The Desktop Monitor:


Model: Acer H233H 23"



The Tower:


Model: Acer Aspire M5802

Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 @ 2.66 GHz
RAM: 8 GB DDR2
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT220 (1 GB)
OS: Windows 7 (64-Bit)


2x1.5 TB Hard drives on top for extra storage.



The only thing I don't like about my computer:


This fucker lights up my entire room. I have to put things on top of it to sleep at night.

I can tell you how to stop that from lighting up if you want, ask me on IRC if you want me to walk you through it.

there's likely a plug on the motherboard labeled PWR LED, unhook it. It's probably better to just not leave your desktop running all night though.

My Desktop is left on 99% the time. I got no qualms with doing so.. Post a pic soon. I got a few Desktop Pals I can show you to!

do you at least make it go into hibernate/sleep? Seems like a silly waste of electricity IMO

i don't download as much shit as i used to but i used to always keep my computer on because i'd be torrenting things and my internet was shit rural kentucky internet so it took quite a while.

but mine does go to sleep nowadays so i guess it doesn't matter really

most people who leave their computers on 24/7 have no good reason to and just want to play at sysadminz

To answer some of the previous questions, I leave my PC on overnight for torrenting. There is a bandwidth limit on torrent transfers during the day that gets lifted at 2:00am-7:00am, so I leave my PC on for prime downloading time!

I also tend to leave my laptop on for torrenting purposes, but also sometimes its just because i am too damn lazy to close it when I go to bed.  Also sometimes I leave it on to play through a short playlist of music to help me fall asleep.    it doesn't really follow a pattern, more just dependant on what exactly I feel like doing before I go to bed.

Dual screens are for the poor. Us elite use dual computers. 8-)
