Zing,

:blush: I lost my desktop and never got round to putting it back. Should have a lovely swirly pattern somewhere :erm: An inch or two higher and the dead moth plastered to the wall would have been in shot, then you would have had something decent to comment on :D

Oh. Well I hid assorted dead wildlife - I like to leave it so it scares the rest. Piles of papers. Old chocolate bar wrappers and coke tins. Real mess :blush: No calendar though - never had the need for one :erm:

[edit] The wallpaper is now a tasteful blue pattern, as opposed to metal links.

Im feeling really inadequate about the neatness of a lot of these workstations. How these of course can be called work stations is beyond me,far to neat to actually be worked from :LOL: I was gonna tidy mine up and put a blind up instead of nailed curtain but I thought what the .... it can stay like this its only me sees it most the time :D

So now is not likely a good time to say I am working on getting a desk three times as big for all my pc stuff.

And then it will be even more tidy and nice.

Mine is normally reasonably tidy. But then I have customers up in the computer room most nights.

I got it from office world, it was £130 but as they are changing to staples I got it for £40! So Staples probably do it now.

I think you're missing the point a bit ;) You ALWAYS get what you pay for and if you pay £32 for that lot it's going to be a pile of cheap, nasty, low quality plastic.

Where did you find it?

I used to have one of those towers I dremled a hole and bolted a 120mm fan on top of it, put 2 rear case fans and the 4 front ones, plus 3 exhaust fans and the cpu/heatsink and fan, controlled by a rambus fan controller.

That pc ruled and was my first ever custom sadly after 2years of faithful service its motherboard died big time and even with a new motherboard/ram it could not be saved.

Bifta - its just a Juno 6 with a kenton midi interface (which doesnt want to work for some odd reason), only set me back £200 and it only has 3 fader tops missing + a broken pitch nipple....so it was a bargin to be had ;)

When/If money becomes available i wouldnt mind getting the Juno 60 or a Jupiter - either a 6 or 8, or just thinking about it a Korg Polysix would also be quite nice. Obviously a (mini)moog would be on the top of my list, but the price of a decent one is silly money :(

It's a 500, couldn't justify the extra expense for a 600 just for a couple of effects.

Very nice kit, only used one once at the cornerhouse in mbro but was impressed.

If only I had space to set up, I sold my decks because they where starting to get battered moving them from being in the way in one place to another.

If you look carefully, you'll see that everything is neatly aligned, even that hard disk drive. But then, curiously, the keyboard and mouse are askew and there's a pile of something (clothes?) just out of shot. Possible evidence of a process known as "man tidying" :D
