This from now on will be where I sit to get my ass handed to me in BF 2 and CSS.

Sorry about the picture size but I have nothing installed to resize it just now as I am having to use Ms Windows:mad:

Always said that Eagle was a funny fella :whis:




Neo you will end up with years of back pain sitting like that with your monitor off to the side. Either buy yourself a TFT for Crimbo or a bigger proper desk like Eagles!!!!! Your CS will improve........ maybe ;)

OK to asnwer teh questions.

Yes I normally use Linux SuSE 10.1
No not Visa, I wouldn't touch it with yours. Xp is back enuff.
It is a Wireless Card the WMP54G, Which should work with Linux but I can't be farked messing around just now getting to work. I will be running a cable under the floor.
I sit at a funny angle when playing games anyway so teh monitor angle works fine , but the wee one had just finished watching the SnowMan( walking in the air one) so the angle looks worse.
PC Spec:
P4 3.2 Ht Prescott
2Gb Crosair XL Ram
6800 GT clocked to Ultra timings
2x 200Gb Seagate bara Sata (Internal)
3x 250Gb Seagate bara IDE (External) in caddies, See pic
Sound Blaster Pro Live 24Bit
a really cheap and Sh!t speaker system which buzzes like hell.
MX1000 Mouse (A lovely bit of kit, I wouldn't swap it for anything)

And one Last note, PLease Oh Please don't call me neo, I am Ras, Really I only use Neo Rasputin if Rasputin is taken already.

That about sums it up.

Edit: I all most forgot my "The worlds Greatest Daddy" Cup megan got me for her first fathers day.
And you have a very nice set up Eagle even though you are a lefty, But you need to repaint your walls a different colour.

the walls were that colour when we moved in 3 years ago and I havent got round to doing any decorating.

And when I do get round to it I'm sure the spare room will be last on the list so its gonna look like that for some time to come yet :P

Is that the Logitech G11 you got there Stocky?

Edit

Hi Eagle, yes it is the G15, not really used it for the gaming side of it but the LCD is pretty useful for monitoring temps etc, IM, Net stats, email alerts & quite a few other applets.

Lol, I'm sure you'd still hand me my ass on BF2 (Which I am hoping to play some of with you after Thursday, alongside some AAO which I have neglected recently).
Maybe you could give me some pointers on the guitar, oh & I see you have one of the most under-rated phones ever ;).

Got to love your editing skills Eagle :ph34r: :D
