I simply couldn't resist..

 

Well I have been on 100ml of 0mg liquid with 20ml of that 72mg nicotine in it and it's fine to me *shrugs* I guess I was due a drop any way. Absolutely gorgeous flavour too. Really enjoying it so far

 

Decided to make the old skool PC its own entity.







And I didn't know you could buy ESD brushes !

 

I can't help but feel that what you really need is a 15" CRT for that systems, preferably in beige, with matching keyboard and ball mouse. Oh, and the mouse has to be from Genius.

 

19-21" triniton would be best.

But it would likely cause that desk to concertina into the floor

 

Sony FW900. Oh how I lusted after that monitor.

 

I remember some spawny git on Futuremark had two of the buggers.

Didn't take much for him to post picture of them either

 

Funny how current reality distorts things. The first time I saw one in person I was simply blown away by the sheer scale of it... like - what sort of insane person could have this on their desk? I had a 19" at the time and even that seemed massive.

Now I have a 32" in front of me and having just measured out a 24" screen area on it leaves me thinking "wait... is that it?"

32" also happens to be the first time I was really impressed by a huge TV...

 

I wanted a Belinea 17". However the last one I bought lasted about two months before the backlight died. This was a few years back... I didn't want to go 19" because the resolution starts getting crazy.

I remember the Iiyama 17" CRT that I got from my grandad. It was white rather than beige. He upgraded to a slightly newer one that was a weird purple/blue combo based purely on the fact that the screen never displayed a perfect square, but rather a warped edged one. I to this day do not know if it was a fault with the display or if it was a normal thing back then. His new one did it too if I remember rightly.

Iiyama MF8617E CRT Monitor - I'm almost positive this is the one he gave to me. It was around €250 at the time.

 

You can adjust that inside mate. You can also give it extra brightness inside and a couple of other things. I know exactly what you are talking about. It's kinda like a pinched in square yes?

The last CRT I had was a 19" Philips Lightframe. I had it right up until I left the USA (2008).

 

FCUK YES. Trinitrons are still silly money on t'bay. Is this a potential untapped market?

 

I don't have a problem honestly...

 

You buy a lot of stuff, V-T

 

I have noticed this too

 

I would buy a lot of stuff too, if the magic money tree would yield a heavier crop!

 

New airbrush, Iwata HP-CS Eclipse

 

A new 850w PSU to replace my 8 year old one

 

Oooh. Was out of the loop for a while, who makes that Leadex PSU? They their own units?
