Re: New desk!
said by Chiyo  :Anyway I find the super speed nice as first but honestly it gets old after you've downloaded everything you've been "wanting" download than it just becomes normal. After I dropped it, it took a bit to get used to 16meg again. I want the 50/10 more for the upload speed than anything. I would be ok on the 22/5 if the upload was actually 10, so a 22/10 would be perfect for me. |

said by Cjaiceman :said by Chiyo :said by bilbusb :My cat looks just like yours. Moonwall, you should try out PFSense has a ton more features! (its a fork of moonwall) Well I actually had PFSense installed and actually found my null cable or whatever you need once its installed cuz you get no video after install on the IBM Netvista (CF) But I actually had problems with speed, at the time I had the 50 meg connection from Comcast and was only getting 28 to 30 megs down and so I tried m0n0-wall and it was able to hit my caps. The one thing of PFSense I want is built in traffic keeping. Interesting, must be a very low powered machine. I have an older gateway Performance 1300 series w/ a P4 @ 1.3GHz, 384MB RDRAM and 2 Linksys Gigabit PCI nics, and on a WAN-LAN test I was getting about 260-270 Mbps. So I know I am ready for the 50/10 when it comes here... Well the thing was it wasn't the hardware it was the software that was causing the problem. I mena like hte router software or for example I have a firebox X5 the software in that.
Because all the ports are 100mbps why would it madder even I was asking for 50

Great Computer, however, I have found the MiniView to be a waste :-( Yep I never even touch the damn thing lol also hate it "MUST" use vista :P It can run Windows XP without any issues. The only thing that is lost is the MiniView. You can get the XP drivers on the Dell Community Website.

I actually ran Windows XP Pro on my XPS 420 for a short while. Very Fast Indeed |

Looks like Logitech X230 speakers. Love the sound of mine. Some cable management would complete the setup. That desk is nice with all the space. You may want to get the tower off the floor since cat hair can get in. I have 2 cats but one is a long hair so you might not have that problem. What are the specs on the monowall computer? |

Old Desk setup | 
New setup | 
Extra workspace / cat sleeping space I guess | 
Shelving | 
monowall, switch, cable modem |
What I love most about it besides all the work room is the cubby holes and doors to place stuff its much neater and looks great.
Just thought I'd share. Any questions ask!
