As soon as I can get my hands on a digital camera I'll be adding my own pics. I'm currently remodeling the first floor of my home, I knocked out a wall over the fall and I finally scraped enough money together to get the floor retiled and the kitchen basically rebuilt from scratch. It should be done in a week or two.


Feel free to post a few pics of your rigs, home theatre, house, car, pets or whatever

no I need to go back and check for that post

I think I'm probably gonna go with one of the most recent DirecTivos, I'll modify it a bit and I should be good to go

You need to read my post.

The problem with DirecTivo is that it will only record DirecTV content. So if you're getting your local channels through an antenna or cable, it will not record them.

Plus, the commercial skip feature in Replay is addicting. Using Tivo without commercial skip is a bummer.

thats a sweet rig, whats that next to it though?

oh yeh, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to report you and your friends to the authorities for the abuse of stuffed toy products


There's an A/V receiver on the right, and a cordless phone on the left. That was actually my PC that I built a few years back, some of you might remember me posting pics of the process in mid 2000. It was really cool actually, I used an electric pump motor (12v) and wired it to an internal secondary PSU switchable. I used the fan blade from an over hood, a piece of aluminum ducting, and some stove rings to construct the conduit. That thing would levitate hats when I turned it on, dang loud though. The paint and window and lights and stuff were all pretty new back then, it wasn't big yet. I later added water cooling that I'd designed from home depot parts. :)


EDIT: Yes I was inspired by the Dodge Viper.

Aircooled, one of my cats does the exact same thing. Have you ever turned on the water while it was still in the sink? :)

Yep! Every day! If I turn the water in lightly, she gets up and starts drinking from the faucet.. If I turn it on heavy she jumps out...

My Home Theatre System. (OK, so it's just a 13 inch TV that I pulled out of a dumpster and a Betamax that I got for free, but it has awesome monophonic sound!) :p

My Car. (I have since fixed the funky antenna.)

Cool car, your tach looks backwards. :Q That would trip me out.
Thanks. :) The tach took a little getting used to, but it's kind of nice now because the needle is closest to the speedo when I need to shift so I can watch both guages.
