Spent most of the day pulling a HD from an older computer and adding it to another one, moving files from a 3rd HD to the fore mentioned computer (200 gigs.) Installing a fresh copy of OS on 3rd computer and setting up next to my bed for easy Prime and porn watching.

Now for the real question, I hate my desk it was given to me after mine broke in the move. I am looking for a good desk that my chair can fit under and hold two 23" monitors and my desktop machine, any suggestions?

Thinking about this one, will have to move my recliner and my aussie will be pissed but as you know I am prone to multiple computers and screens.

I wish I had room for an L-shaped desk.

I have to use this walmart desk



I completely removed all the shelving past the top of the desk so that I could fit my 2 27" monitors.

We can't block off closets, we have wives

What hell kind of contracted discount is this???



So, if I didn't have insurance, I'd get a bill for nearly 40 grand, but the insurance company gets a 90% discount.

Similarly for his helmets, too. The orthotics place says the helmets are $4,000, but the contracted price with blue cross is $1400. I don't know how this shite works other than individual agreements are worked out with insurance companies for various billing charges, but that just seems absurd.

I just knocked a Monster can over and got that shite all over my G510. Still works, but I know it's going to be unmanageably sticky tomorrow.

It was a $100 keyboard when I bought it, but I'm still not sure if it's worth the hassle to clean it. Can't do it tonight, too much to do. Cleaned off the surface, but I'm just racing the clock until the stickiness under the keys sets in.

I am so spoiled by that LCD that I'd probably end up buying another one of the same unless I find something else with an LCD.

I also asked this on the tech board, but I have a co-worker that wants to get uverse for things like netflix. His choices are 18 and 45, at 18 will it buffer or will the video quality be downgraded.

18 is plenty fine, but when I last had uverse once you go over the bandwidth they throttle the hell out of you

I had 18mbps U-verse for a couple of years and didn't have any issues streaming netflix at 1080p. For some reason, youtube videos in HD were impossible. Many have accused ATT of throttling youtube.

I got a new toy about an hour ago

Surface pro 128gb (Original) for only $250. Came with the nice illuminated keyboard and case. It's in amazing condition.

Edit: And supposedly steams in home streaming works very well on this i5 it has, so I cant wait to try that out.
