Also, I'm not expert on the matter, and it's probably not a huge deal but... Display on top of a microwave? That can't be great for the displays life expectancy...
I've said this on other forums: Federal law in the United States (and other nations) limits the maximum microwave leakage that a microwave oven can produce to 5mw over the entire course of its lifetime at a two inch distance from source, well below anything that would harm electronics.
Re: (Official Thread) Post your PC pics
Yeahhh it may be the Whiskey ((Don't drink and derive folks)) but I seriously think that statement is wrong.
You cannot have 5mw over the entire course of its lifetime... milliwatts is a *rate*... not a quantity. 1/1000th of a Joule per second. It makes no sense to be the output of an integral over its life...
Even still... each microwave's lifespan is different... so a cheap chinese brand that is leaky as hell but dies after a week of use would be acceptable? ... Yeah that doesn't make sense at all.

Maybe I worded that poorly... At no point during its lifetime may it exceed 5mw output. And most microwaves are a lot better than that. Also, the stand for the TV helps keep it far enough away that everything has dissipated.

Triple boot, bitches. (Windows 7, Kubuntu 9, Snow Leopard)

... and your reason for that is?
I mean, good on you, but what was your reason to go through all that time?
Re: (Official Thread) Post your PC pics

I moved my entire setup to the basement, need to work on the cable management behind the desk A LOT but it looks great from the front end. This is in preperation for my triple monitor setup, the CD shelf thing on the left is not attached to the desk anymore so I'll remove it when my monitors get here.

@Phopo: I have uses for all three
@Freelancer: That desk looks awesome for triple monitors.

I'll let you know whenever UPS gets off their collective asses and ships my monitors. "Billing Information Received" status for 3+ days doesn't help meh!!!!
Re: (Official Thread) Post your PC pics
Here's a couple more pictures of my setup, I cleaned up the cable management with some twist ties until I get some cable sleeving or something... Added box of Toblerones...


God damn UPS has had my monitors listed as "Billing Information Received" on their tracking program for EIGHT DAYS now... FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!
