These are not all of my computers- just the ones I use alot. I also have 2 netbooks I keep in my vehicle for troubleshooting, configuring, repairing networks- both of those dual boot in BT4 and xp.

You're game emulation computer just made you a little less of a freak. Wink

And heres a better picture of my computer/gaming setup thing.
I am thinking of getting another 19" tv or monitor(probably monitor cause its cheaper) and use one for my computer and the other for my Xbox.

The extra one on the wheeled cart is, but the drumset one is a DEC. Both are ridicu-old and wireless but they work for what I am using them for.

That emulator right now only runs SNES and Playstation, but it's on a 55 inch TV. Yeah boy! So forgiveness is in order. Soon latch will swap that computer out for a special media box he's building that will play movies as well as better emulation. Going from 1.3ghz with gforce 5200 to 3.0ghz with gforce 6600. Tasty!

Dude, SNES and PSX is like the only consoles a gamer ever needs. Well, and a N64, but you can live without that.

Edit: How much did ALL those computers cost you?

I disagree as Genesis had a game Conta: hard corps which was very cool and also the ever so beautiful granddaddy of RTS, Herzog Zwei! And I do have to have N64 lest my emotions become incorrect.

Most of those computer were given to me by customers or I found them.

My clients give me more than they should.

RE: Show Us Your Setup! - Special Chris - 10-11-2010

Ah, what do you do?

I've never played the genesis..(waits for people to be like ZOMG WTF)..so I've never really cared for it.

And theres only a few N64 games I actually ever emulate so I don't really care for it that much.

RE: Show Us Your Setup! - latch - 10-11-2010

Weee! A chance to brag!

Best job in the world!

I repair computers and just about everything else.

Self employed A+ certified computer repair technician...
I remove viruses by hand, repair hardware, manage networks, give training and consultation.

AND

handyman repairs of nearly everything- drywall, electrical, plumbing, doors, windows and floors oh and appliances both residential and commercial.

I get paid to do lots of stuff- some of it weird. One guy pays my to do all of his writing. I've rebuilt a pinball machine and built an entire jewelry store single handed. One year, I made $500 picking up dog poop.

I am a professional problem solver.

RE: Show Us Your Setup! - Special Chris - 11-11-2010

Out of that list of things you do, I can do two of those things. Removing viruses, and flooring. I can also put down trim, and such. What would that be classified as?

Your computers made you awesome, and that above post made you awesomer.
