How do you like you Ibuypower rig?
I ordered 2 systems from them 1 desktop and 1 laptop.
The Desktop arrived pretty quick (like a week or so) but after 2 weeks of non stop calls they finally sent out my laptop today. Bit disappointed with their customer service, I was told the laptop would ship out in 3 days it ended up taking 33. Seems like they only got their asses in gear when I threatened to cancel my order.
Anyway here are a few close up pics of my PC, I'll takes some shots of my laptop when it shows up after today.
Flash was to bright, can't see all the cool blue neon lights
Bitch blows out hair air like a hairdryer, those dual 6800 ultras are working hard :lol

I got it two years ago
Athlon 2400+
1GB of Ram
80GB
ATI Raedon All-in-Wonder 9700 Pro 128 with the TV shit.
I like it a lot. Once I got my laptop, my wife took the desktop.
The thing about these PC people, you seemingly need to stay on their asses about your stuff. It is a pain in the ass, honestly. Ibuypower was decent, Alienware is a bitch at time, they gave the round around. Not just that, 50% of the people speak with a heavy accent. EVERYBODY that picks the phone is of Latin descent, that is no lie. I put the number in my cell and called like crazy. To be an ass though, but I couldn't understand half the people there. The ones I could, they knew their shit. I met the most acknowledgable tech rep there. All my years of calling Intel, Microsoft, Linksys, Best Buy, this one guy was the shit. Makes me wonder why he was just in tech support. Dude was amazing

Uhm st00pid question alert:
How did you "DS" you gba games. Did you cut up the original GBA boxes and where did you get those DS cases? Or am i missing something? Because that's one awesome idea
I did the same with most of my SNES games in rentalboxes i got cheap many years ago..

:lol Yeah, I had no trouble understanding the tech support people for the most part, but every once in a while, I'd have to keep asking them to repeat themselves. Kind of embarassing.
I got my AW laptop last year and have been loving it though, and every time I've had a problem, save for one incident, they have been able to help me with no problems. The problem I did have that they were zero help on involved their own "Alien Adrennilen" overclocking program. One day I had a crash, the program wouldn't load up anymore, so I unknowingly redownloaded it from a different source. After that it would never load up again despite getting the proper version back from Alienware. I didn't really care since I never used the program anyway.
Speaking of which, it's time to get a new graphics card. When the hell are they going to carry Ati Mobile Radeon 9800 cards?!

All seperate units in central unit. Those two boxes, either side of the central thing, one of them next to the sub have my games, pads, bongos etc in:
Cube on top:
In preperation for:
Xbox is below cube:
PS2 is elsewhere in the house. For Live (which I'm banned for thanks to them sussing out my modded xbox) and for the Phantasy Star Online on cube... I have my belkin wifi bridge on top of the unit near the central speaker:
A pic I set up for the thread asking for just some of the reasons you love Nintendo:
Here's the other bits n' bobs:
That's it for now!

Geez, isn't that uncomfortable to not being able to have your legs in front of you while typing and using the mouse? Or do you sit away with your arms reaching? Either way... ow.sscrew said:

I'm currently reorganizing my little setup, so I'll post some pictures once I'm done. But for now..
I seriously love that. I've been wanting to "DS" my GBA games ever since I found that site. My printer doesn't work though. :\
And hey, is that a full size GBA Player CD case? Do tell.
... And I officially love you. A fellow Joss fan. <3

An oldish pic of my PC corner...
Ninja Gaiden: It's the Asia Special Edition, with an awesome rubber shuriken and some postcards. At least the package looks cool.Minotauro said:
The Xbox thing was given to all closed Xbox Live beta testers (about 100 in Europe), it contains a Headset and a limited edition orange memory card you can see in the picture too I think. Kinda nice looking and it hides the mess

Cool stuff, thanks for the info.
I'm planning on taking new pictures somewhat soon. I completely rearranged my living room and everything looks much nicer. Plus, my brand new crystal XBox looks mighty nice sitting beneath my TV.

What did you do to DS your GBA boxes? Where did you get blank DS cases and did you just scan and print the inserts? (from the very first post)

You got the orange memory card?! That was one of the reasons I signed up for the XBL beta in Canada... but not only did I NOT get an orange memory card, I got NO memory card at all. In fact, the only thing I did get was a demo of "Whacked!" and a $180 bill....
