• Please excuse the dusty areas on my desk, time for clean up, haven't done it for a while :oops:

[Acerz492 1]

Hahaha...why bother having a mousepad if you've got an optical mouse?

Your desk is spic and span compared to mine..I'm so unorganised.

 

Are those Logitech wireless keyboards any good? I've been meaning to get myself a new keyboard for a good while now, and they look alright.

 

Nice Metallica poster by the way. :wink:

[Louis EX 0]

Woah...Sonic has somenice games...

Oh that is so cool!

You dude are a luckly guy!

[Acerz492 1]

It's what happens when you have a job...:wink:

[Louis EX 0]

ohh!!!!

So much Games!!!

Half-Life 1

Half-Life 2

Quake!!!

[Sonic 296]

Hahaha...why bother having a mousepad if you've got an optical mouse?

I know if you have an optical mouse you don't need a mousepad, personally for me it feels weird to not use one.

 

Are those Logitech wireless keyboards any good? I've been meaning to get myself a new keyboard for a good while now, and they look alright.

Its great, no cord means you can move it out of the way, keys are very responsive. Doesn't chew through the batteries either. I orignally got mine about 2 years in a double pack with a Logitech wireless mouse, the mouse was total **** though.

 

Nice Metallica poster by the way. :wink:

Its actually a flag, I have 3 Metallica flags of the early album covers, Kill'em All, Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets. I'll post some pics of them later.

 

@Sonic: Those speakers are really, really nice. Like surround sound quality nice. Did those come with the computer?

Well I'm on using onboard sound for my soundcard so there is no surround sound, but it sounds great through these speakers. Plently of bass to

Like every part of my system they were purchased separately. My entire setup is my own system build with parts aquired over many months or when I can afford them

 

Woah...Sonic has somenice games...

You can afford Half-Life 2!

Oh that is so cool!

You dude are a luckly guy!

I have collect many games over the years, sold off many more as well. You can see F.E.A.R and Quake 4 on my desk, I purchased those really cheap by trading in old games I never play anymore.

 

Half-Life 2 is cheap now, wasn't when I got it last November though.

 

I wouldn't say I'm lucky, I simply pay the bills and my living costs then treat my self to a game or something new for the computer.

[Louis EX 0]

You can trade older games in shops?

Didn't know that

[Sonic 296]

We you can here in New Zealand

[Acerz492 1]

We you can here in New Zealand :wink:

 

Lol...I thought you could do that in every country?

 

Its great, no cord means you can move it out of the way, keys are very responsive. Doesn't chew through the batteries either. I orignally got mine about 2 years in a double pack with a Logitech wireless mouse, the mouse was total s*** though.

 

Hmm...I wonder how much they are now. They shouldn't be much more than $80, right? They're not exactly 'new'.

 

Its actually a flag, I have 3 Metallica flags of the early album covers, Kill'em All, Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets. I'll post some pics of them later.

 

Please do!

[Luk3us 63]

You can trade games? I didn't know that... I just sell em'...

[Acerz492 1]

 

Are you serious? You didn't know you could trade games?

[Luk3us 63]

Don't make me come up there!

[Saracen 16]

Of course you can, as I have said before on here, I traded in my PS2, 30 PS2 games 10 PC games and a few DVDs to get hold of my PSP and a few games! Didn't have to pay a penny :wink:

[Acerz492 1]

Don't make me come up there!

 

:haha:

Hehe, lucky. I would do that too, but the games I have for the PS2 and my computer happen to be games I won't part with for a very long time. Plus I don't have as much as you used to.

[Luk3us 63]

Of course you can, as I have said before on here, I traded in my PS2, 30 PS2 games 10 PC games and a few DVDs to get hold of my PSP and a few games! Didn't have to pay a penny :wink:

 

Seems to me you could have got more simply selling it all indivdually.... :?

[Acerz492 1]

It would've taken much longer to do that dude.

[Luk3us 63]

I'm very patient....

[Acerz492 1]

Hah! As if. :wink:

 

Anyways..when are we gunna see pics of -your- PC, luk3us? :wink: Or is it really not worth showing? :lol:

[BWare 0]

[Acerz492 1]
