I moved from a single wide trailer, while in college, into a 2800 sqft house. The greatest thing is that now I have a dedicated room for my computer and other gear.

The first pictures show the setup that I had while in our trailer. Then pictures of my new desk and new setup. The computer is inside the closet. This makes the noise drop from the PC. I am waiting until the end of the year to build another computer. Current specs: Abit Max 2, ATI x1600, AMD Barton 2500, 1 gig ram and two Westinghouse 22W. Yea, I know it isn't much, but buying a house took more of a priority.

The desk came from the WV state surplus auction. $200 bucks for a solid executive desk. Plus this desk let me get rid of a old metal filing cabinet and put all the filings in the desk.

I forgot to add Abner. He watches me play TF2.

Those monitors look good. I see a Xbox 360 controller there, does that mean you have the vga cable for the 360?

Toshiba 52HL167
Currently, the Xbox 360 is hooked up in my wiring closet for my TV. But, I have a 50' component cable running from that closet to one of my monitors. These Westinghouse monitors have tons of inputs, DVI, VGA, Component, S-Vid and Composite.

I am waiting to get a hdmi splitter and a used 360 digital audio connector to connect the 360 to the dvi port on my monitor. I have already tested the video signal via hdmi to dvi, but I need to get the audio to RCA connections.

I am finishing up wiring in the main closet. I broke my IR emitter cable and have to get a new one. I have a Toshiba 52" 52HL167 with IR pass-thru that works great, but i pinched the cable while hooking up another input to the tv. The picture shows the wiring closet to the right of the TV. This works out great, because my computer room is on the other side of the wall from the TV. We are waiting to redo the wall in sheet rock. Once that happens, I can install some extra speakers in the wall. BTW, Monoprice.com is the best for any cables or wall mounts.
