    Picks look like they're from kustom PCs, silverstone(thats what it is?) make some lovely cases, was gonna build one as dvd player writer etc, when I have the cash. Although I prefer siolver, the pics don't do them justice.
    Go for it TB, you know you want to :)

    Yes, they are open-ear. I do get funny looks wearing them on the train into work, though.

    He he - reminds me of a comedy sketch (late 80s?) where a rock musician is so deaf, he has to have large bookshelf speakers as monitoring headphones in the studio - looked very funny!

    Then there's that "Last of the summer wine" episode with Compo with the portable PA system, complete with speakers, around his waist...

    Monitors not shown, but it's a pair of 21" CRTs.

    Because I have a nasty habit of doing way too many things at once...

    Currently I have four chat clients, 12 firefox windows, mail client, ftp client, four conversations, four chat rooms and motherboard monitor open....

    Then occasionally I do some work too....

    Oh, and just watched an episode of scrubs too...

    When I was writing software for Macs I used to have three monitors - a 21" colour, a 21" greyscale and a 13" colour.
    By the time you've opened a project window, a few source files for editing, a debug window, a few watch windows and whatever windows are opened by the program you're debugging, even 3 screens isn't always enough! :rolleyes:

    garyi - they do stop some vibrations travelling through the desk and make the computer a little quieter in operation. So yes.

    Thanks Isaac, Chris. That just raises another question. How?

    There's two ways... Multiple graphics cards, or single graphics card with multiple outputs. I, however, have gone both ways, with three cards with a total of four outputs in the machine (I used to run more screens than now).
