Ahhh 2002's vision of ~designer tech~. Did those use a proprietary connection to the monitor? It'd be interesting to stick a nano ITX board inside one.

Read up some forums, seems like it's proprietary, you'd need a converter to get any standard input to it. Oh well.
Remember I said I was intending to make a tri-monitor stand myself?
Well, it works.

Total cost: £21.50.
Not bad considering some multi monitor mounts run into the hundreds.
Looks pretty nice.
I give you an A+
you passed wood shop

Thankyou! It was my first major woodwork project at all really, and I've learnt a lot in the process.
It has a few flaws and wonky bits, but the monitors are pretty much level, and the structure is very strong (the most important bit when holding up many £ worth of monitor).
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;44463098]glorious setup[/QUOTE]
The downside is I now have a Korean 2560x1440 IPS sitting about doing nothing until I move out and get a bigger desk in October. I guess I will lend it to my mum to use.
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;44463142]I would ask if I could purchase it off you but I suddenly need a new phone as the micro usb port has decided to start failing.
On top of that I'm getting massive packet loss as well as slow punch, nothing is working internet wise.[/QUOTE]
Oh, I don't want to get rid of it, I still love it. I just have to wait until I have a big enough desk to use it as well as the 3 dells.
I like programming/general browsing on the 3 1080s, but gaming is so much nicer on the 1 1440.
found a 'nice' early 2007 24" imac to setup today at work. booted it up, it went to the "plz restart me" screen half way through booting. noticed that there were a lot of what i assumed were stuck pixels. tried ubuntu on it, and experienced this...

Antivirus Pro.
Anti-virus XP 2003
[QUOTE=Soleeedus;44463345]so what antivirus do you guys use?[/QUOTE]
Security Essentials along with MalwareBytes Anti-Malware. Might switch to something else.
I use AVAST!.
MSE and Common Sense on my desktop, but I installed Avast on my school netbook because the desktops there have every piece of malware known to mankind in em, and I find myself needing to use people's virulent USB drives every so often.
[QUOTE=Soleeedus;44463345]so what antivirus do you guys use?[/QUOTE]
common sense 2014
AV?
MSE, a scan every 1-2 months w/ mbam, adblock + ghostery or disconnect and common sense. a format on os drive every year too.
[QUOTE=Soleeedus;44463345]so what antivirus do you guys use?[/QUOTE]

An OS that isn't targeted by virus authors.

There are viruses for linux too man.
Yes it isn't target as much, but you can't just say Linux don't get no viruses.
That's like the MAC OS has no viruses shit.
[QUOTE=lavacano;44464481]An OS that isn't targeted by virus authors.[/QUOTE]
That's a common misconception
'Sides, Linux faces a shitload of security threats specifically because of its importance in the server market.

That's not what I said.
I'm well aware that Linux can be virused, it's just that nobody bothers.

Which means they're going after server related vulnerabilities, not desktop user ones. People who exploit Linux vulnerabilities are after large database dumps in /var with credit card info and the like, not Firefox cookie stores and the sort of thing they go after on Windows/OS X targets.

I was actually going to post and say the same thing. People who look for exploits in Linux look to exploit large servers, using very specific exploits... There's very little in the way of the type of malware and spyware you find on Windows, from what I've seen.
thing with windows as I've noticed is that a lot of people turn off UAC. might save you some annoyance, but if something happens you're very much at risk. run something unwanted once, and it can do whatever it wants to without you knowing
would say linux users in general put more effort or thought into the security of their PCs, from what I've read and seen.

Lately I've been considering solely using Linux when I want to enter sensitive information online. I might be getting a little paranoid.
