I'll try to post a pic here later, as my iPhone is kinda cracked at the moment, but for now: Setup #1: Dell Studio 1555; 2.4 Core2Duo (The LAST year these were added to laptops before i5/i7); ATI Mobility Radeon HD4500(or something similar made for dell); 8gb ram; Windows 7. Setup #2 (and still being upped): Dell Inspiron Tower (mostly just a box now); Core2Quad Q6600; 4GB ram; PNY GeForce 550ti; 600w PSU; TrendNet Wireless PCI Card (connects to internet better than hardwire right now); Dual Dell monitors (either 17, 19, or 21. Not sure right now tbh). Std keyboard and mouse - which is soon to change. I play on setup #1 about 90% of the time due to connectivity issues with the desktop. It has something to do with using a launcher to load minecraft.
How you like the trendnet PCI card? I've been looking for an upgrade from my Realtek, is it PCI or PCI express?
PCI Express I'm pretty sure. I don't think I have anything that uses just PCI, but I'll check when I get home. I think it is very capable as a wireless card. It wasn't expensive, and it has good performance for a wireless card. OT: I just got an ASUS VN247 monitor. I'll post a pic of my current setup tonight. I still have to replace my keyboard and mouse, but Its good for what it is.
As promised: pics of my gaming setup, with the new monitor. As well as a few things that characterize me too
I've changed a ton of stuff so I figured an update would be good. Since the last post I've purchased a Razer death stalker keyboard, new mousepad, new mood lighting for PC, better desk cable management and a webcam.
Bet my keyboard is cooler than yours Spoiler (Move your mouse to the spoiler area to reveal the content) Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

Nice set up. Are you sure its good that the laptop is on the PS3? And i could afford that set up should i get that? And buy that i mean by xmas, birthday and the money my mum said he will give me to help getting a good gaming set up
Well, mine is pretty shit but I guess I'll post it here anyways. Toshiba Notebook running Windows 7 Home Premium Processor: Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU T4400 @ 2.20GHz 2.20 GHz (I don't really understand what all these numbers and crap mean xP) RAM: 2GB (Think it came with the laptop when I got it) System Type: 64-bit Operating System Headset: Logitech H340 USB headset (I think) Mouse: Microsoft wireless USB mouse I'll edit when I can take a picture of my setup.
I don't really have a setup I just have a simple hp mouse, an iPad, but I took the photo with it, and a MacBook. Btw I am in my parents room I also don't want anyone to see my desktop screen saver so that's why I have the mcs thing up =)
