The beer cans are to replace the toilet roll that usually sits there.

the cans are actually a special tool i use to clutter up my desk, i often tap them with the vodka bottle to make music and give me inspirations and foresight of the future, as they get emptier, the sounds generated tell me of impending drunkness and blurred vision, later they tell me to collapse in a heap on my bed, or sometimes, fall asleep in my chair whilst clutching a (sacred) half full can, resulting in `wet chair and soaked legs`.

All `sacred`cans are available from me and come in various sizes and consistency, they are all blessed by the vodka and can be yours for $19.95 each

rrp £1.05 - full
£0.02 - Empty

Well firstly, as Ste said, thats not an old one - i have about four that dont have media keys on Laughing

But i too am a key user, i would take a pic but its m$ and i heard theres a curse on anyone taking pics or advertising M$ products (if theres isnt, there shold be)

rofl £4 is good, for a piece of kit that last six months or less Smile (or maybe mines overuse)

Theres the letters, A,S,D,W,E,R,O,L,K,M,N,C,B and the enter keys missing (scrubbed off by constant hammer on fps`s i think, and general typing)

The kb is 5 years old though,

Welcome to my room, let me show you around...


Ths is where it happens. At the centre is a 32" Vistron flatscreen. On the left is the "Haylite", a Halo 3 edition xbox 360 with a 120GB hard drive that connects through HDMI. The Spartan green controller is usually used with the xbox, the blue imported controller is used on TM. On the right is an early PS3, a 60GB model connected through component cable. The black controller is the standard issue sixaxis, the silver one is an imported dualshock 3. Visible under the TV are the reciever for my wireless mouse and keyboard (black and on the left under the TV), a wireless 360 headset, bluetooth headset for ps3 and xbox accessories reciever for the PC, which sits under the desk. That connects by VGA cable. On the floor is a tangly mass of cables that includes charging leads and wired headsets for consoles.


Here's where I sit to watch it all happen. There's my chair, wireless keyboard, wireless mouse with flat batteries and cheap mouse acting as a stand-in. All kinds of crap can be seen in the surroundings.


And here's what does happen.

I also normally play with iPod in ears, ingame music turned off, ingame noise turned to medium (I don't know why, I just prefer engine noise while racing, feels strangely numb without it). Unless I'm on TS or Vent, where I use:


This, and my main computer speakers:


I also play on minimum gfx quality settings, which looks a bit like this:

*p.s.* Note framerate in top left hand corner of screenshot. The monitor does not go any lower than 10, but I could literally count the frames on that map, must have been close to 5, maybe even 4.

You use a Venom PS2 adapter Heel? Do you find that with vibration on it turns the analogue off?

Nah, I find that with vibration turned on, the controller vibrates every 5 seconds regardless of what you're actually doing. Doesn't do anything to analogue though. I just keep it turned off though. It gave me some grief a few weeks ago when it kept deciding that it was corrupted, so I had to re-install its driver almost every day, but that problem *touchwood* has since gone away. Only problem I get nowadays is a bit of stickiness, where the car keeps at the same steering angle for half a second more than I tell it to. Fixable by restarting computer though.
