I'll show you a poor desktop setup (or would it be a laptop setup?).



Yes, that's a Pepsi can. I took this picture like, two or three minutes ago. And the picture is made even more poor by the fact that I took it on my Virgin Mobile phone. :P

EDIT: The icon on the top area... second from the right... Yeah, that's osu!. :D

Oh yeah. The table is quite small. :P

OK, I got my new setup. The very sad thing is that I can't run Osu on this. ;-; And thanks to not being able to change the graphics card, I'm screwed. Oh well.

Really simple! I like your window.
PS how can you not able to change the graphic card? Even so, you can try another type of driver that is shareable with this one...
Mogsy
Because most graphics cards are soldered onto the motherboard of the laptop itself. ): Although I could get someone who knows what they're doing to fix it, but I have little time or money.

And yeah, ahahaha, complicated setups are just not me. Thank you, I like my window, too. xD

You know, one of these days I really should look at ditching pixel shader requirements for osu!. This seems like one of the big changes that needs to be made before going big-time publicity wise.

Yeah...although this thing is already kicking the bucket, even a few days after I got it (gotta LOVE how I have never had a new computer, always a hand-me-down). I need to send this somewhere to get the graphics card changed...I mean, I can't even run StepMania anymore without lag and my screen getting fucked up. :\
It's incredibly unlikely that anyone can change the graphics card in your laptop. For a brief period there was a standard for upgradeable laptop graphics cards a few years back, but that has slipped away and is no longer up to date in regards to the pci-e bus most cards use these days, and even in it's 'heyday' it was incredible rare.
Mogsy
Looks like I've actually got to get a job. :\ Or at least find a cheap-ass desktop.

yeah. it's a desktop setup, technically... my home setup is a mess at the moment, books and paper everywhere.

I got a new desk today for my birthday (which was on the 21st)! Tiny table out, real desk in! I finished putting the thing together about 20-30 minutes ago.



The clock is fast for some reason. It's obviously physically impossible for this picture to have been taken at 1:00 AM EST; Right now it's 12:18 AM EST!
awp
oh shit I didn't know it was your birthday, happy birthday, guy!

Gimmick photo from another thread:

Just add laptop on the bottom, below the keyboard, move the keyboard to the left, and add bluetooth mouse. Messy, yes. Yes, there's a whole bunch of crap here. You also don't want to see what's just below and on the chair. The monitor and speakers came from a desktop, but the desktop is all bust up - I have no idea how to fix. So I attach them to the laptop.

No one here knew; these forums don't have a birthday thingie. It's quite alright. Thank you, though. :D

rawrs phear the gigantic screen.
And i should really get a digital camera... my camera phone = bad lol.
awp
awp at work

omg is that osu! on Solaris (UNIX) ????????????

if I spent more time setting up this shot I probably could convince you that yes, it's true!

however you can see the youtube bar at the bottom of the screen, right?

wiicademan


Meh.

Note: The tube of glue is there because I was gluing together a paper companion cube. Not for any other reason. Also, the mug is there because I had hot chocolate a couple of weeks ago and never decided to put the mug back. The speakers are hiding behind my screen because they're scared. And those most definitly are dual monitors, except they weren't supposed to be. When I got my new monitor, I decided I might as well plug in my old monitor as well. Plus, there isn't really enough space for my keyboard, so it's slightly off the desk.
awp
Your wallpaper (monitor right) is the same as my laptop's wallpaper. Except, I opted for the Orange version of the wallpaper.

Also I just changed it to something else last night but it was like that for at least three months so lol@that

You're not the only one. I also had that exact same wallpaper, but switched it out for a Dark Knight Cecil right before that post.

The real question is, does it look better than Classic? And the answer is NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

But it still doesn't look nearly as good as Vista. :P

ARtoolkit and firefox running, ds plugged in for homebrew(and nothing else ;) ), controller for halo, bad quality due to £3 camera (which is like a million dollers/yen/rupees), nothing else needs explaining...

I've had my laptop for 3 months(seriously, i downloaded osu the day i got it), running vista premium with a steriotypical xp bliss edit for wallpaper, i have about 20 different ones.
shinn_old
Wait 3*15=...(Counts Finger)

(2 Hours later)

... :? 20! Wait... no.


(4 hours later)

...45! YES! 3 Pounds = 45 HKD!!!

Wow. I don't think we sell digital cameras in HK that cheap.

My panasonic DX07 broke :cry:

my camera holds almost ONE PHOTO!!!
i don't think it was worth £3...

Ooh, could you put them in a zipfile and upload them somewhere maybe?
I'm collecting them for work. A lot of people there haven't changed their wallpapers from bliss so I like using slight variations on bliss. This one being the most popular so far.

that's one slim keyboard you got there phill
shinn_old
That's the infamous Apple Keyboard. It's like $350-400 (HKD) for one of those expensive keyboards. I thought of getting one, now I'm stuck with a $70 (HKD) Philips PS/2 keyboard :(
chan
My keyboard is like some PS2 piece of crap I found at uni. It was about to be thrown out.
James
I'm using a 1$(converted) PS/2 keyboard. So am I the winner now?
awp
I'm using my Sun Microsystems keyboard right now. It's like a regular keyboard from the late nineties with the pale white plastic and the slightly muffled rat a tat tat typing, but has an extended keypad to the left with shit like Stop, Again, Copy, Paste, Undo, Find, and most importantly

It has a "Props" key! PROPS TO YOU, OSU! COMMUNITY!

chan
Mine is free. I just got weird looks on the bus, holding a keyboard on the way home. I felt so Pure Pwnage-ish
James
You win then :(

Most stuff on top of the upper desk is mementos, and so dusty that I'd probably die of sneezing if I touched it. It's been aaaages since I used the durned thing. XD
Moofey


All I can say about this room is: Playing a Wii with a TV set up like so is quite a feat.
GSGold


  1. My room is dark lol
  2. That thar laptop on the right is the Osumobile, or better known as my laptop. The desktop computer can't run Osu, so I use this instead (and about all its good for really...). As you can see, it's currently watching Osu.
  3. The desktop computer (tower unseen under the desk) is currently looking at this thread. American flag mousepad since I AM A TRUE PATRIOT.
  4. Awesome desktop flatscreen monitor which I browse the osu forums with, WHILE PLAYING OSU ON THE LAPTOP OMG.
  5. Two mice since lol.
  6. Doohickey sicne that's my digital camera's pouch thing when I took this shot.
  7. Soda cans since I'm fat.
  8. Blank CDs since I like burning CDs.
  9. That rack on the upper right has DS games. Behind/behind my laptop and desktop monitor is my DS, slowly chargin' away.

That's the product of about a week's worth of guzzling that I'm too lazy to dispose of in the convinient garbage can immediately to the right of my desk. IT'S ALL DIET THOUGH SO ITS OKAY RIGHT???? Also it's just 13 cans. When I start forming pyramids I know something has to give.

Drinking diet pop exclusively gives you aspartame poisoning. I dunno what's worse: Aspartame poisoning from diet pop, or diabetes from too much regular pop.

Eh its too tasty to give up and go to plain water.

And hey this is a desktop thread not a soda is bad for you thread.

I remember once doing it consistently around 1.5 mins, but I think my solving method is sub-optimal.
Still got my rubik's at home, but it's uh... wobbly.

New, boring, non-laptop-oriented desktop setup. It's my parents' work comp, so this has to be neat. >:

Ignore the papers on top of the tower, those are my mum's work papers.

CheeseWarlock
I'd post mine, but my webcam is integrated into my laptop, so it can't take a picture of itself. Curses.

Oh well. Not like it has good resolution or proper colour anyway. :|

Man... I can't even average below five minutes. My best time is like half a minute, but I haven't replicated it since.

Still a mess. If you look closely, you'll see not one, but three rubik's cubes, one of which has its stickers already peeling off their tops. Under the letters is a phone I built last school year, and a SP.

I've seen worse. That amount... but in 1.5 liter bottles, all over a desk. Not to mention the pile under it. The guy who's room it was thought "it might be time to throw them away... soon-ish".
