Little things that irk you.. (no swearing please)

It's been all over my Facebook as well. The unit itself is nice, but there's far too many duplicate consoles in there for my liking. 3x Megadrives (MD1, 2 and Wondermega), 2x Snes, 2x Nes, 2x PC Engine etc.

Maybe I'm blind but I can't see a 360 there at all?

[speedlolita]

I bet only the PS3 is connected.

Haha I saw that shared on twatter too. Glad it wasn't just me picking holes in it

[Fader209]

Saw this on my Facebook too...it is amazing how many people chose to comment with the word "VIRGIN".
I'm with Speedy, I bet none of that lot in the cabinet is plugged in.

Edit: We were wrong! Saw a video on Youtube of the setup from the man himself, all wired up and there is a 360 but probably wasn't in that photo.

I think a lot of you are being a bit harsh. It looks like a pretty nice setup to me. Yes, we have members here with much better setups though. Post some links to them on your facebooks?

[Fader209]

FSW - I wouldn't say anyone here is being harsh, just as it's a hobby we all enjoy we can find the odd flaw that we would change for our own setup - like having a CRT is probably the biggest change I suspect. (Before viewing that video of course)

Mozilla Thunderbird.

I use it on my work PC but the search keeps breaking(doesn't always show all results) and I have to delete the journal thing and wait ages for it to re-index stuff. It's getting ridiculous.

I should've nabbed one of the Office 2010 licenses when they were being distributed

Someone described the setup as 'terrible'. That's harsh IMO. I think that because we see amazing setups posted all the time we might not appreciate that to the average assimilated facebook pleb this setup is amazing. Also, from our own perspective here the illuminated grid layout is something new afaik.

Yeah...I missed the "terrible" comment, that is a bit harsh tbh.

[Dogg Thang]

Well I'm impressed.

It is terrible. The wall shelving is nice but I don't know how anyone can play with a screen so far up the wall when they're sitting down. A lot of thought has gone into building the unit but actually using the setup seems to have been of a secondary concern. The only time that screen would be at an appropriate level is when he has to stand on the the other side of the room to play his MAME setup. The comment about the average Facebook pleb is spot on though- the person that posted it on my Facebook page also mistook a Dreamcast for a Saturn, then a SNES.

Zimbra is meant to be a good alternative.

I was going to say the same thing about the screen height, although I've seen worse.

A sql message table with columns "IsRead" and "IsViewed". How can you read a message without viewing it? Or view it without reading it?
