    A picture of my... rig?... is too embarrassing unless you want to see a laptop that is missing some keys, of which screen isn't working and is connected to a used-to-be-white old keyboard. However I did put a "Intel inside Xeon" sticker so just I fool the fools.

    This is a picture from a few years ago. There are also a couple of pictures of me in my 'regiment pics' link, I think like pic 30 or something, but they aren't very good.

    I'm wearing a breastplate that one of my friends had to wear for fencing. I'm making fun of one of my Jew friends.

    I dont have a picture of my 'rig.' At first, I thought you meant oil rig. I go to a maritime academy
    I'm not immature, I'm refined in the opposite direction.

    I'll dig out my digital cam when I get back from my 3rd (bloody third!!!) driving test.

    A picture of me with my first daughter taken not long after she was born. I believe this was in November of 2005. Not much has changed since then.

    My workspace as of September 11th, 2006. Again, not much has changed since then, it's still a mess. On the screen is the FPS I'm writing. You can see two machines in the shot; the one on the desk is mine, and the one underneath the monitor is my wife's. Our desks are next to each other in our office. The blue light glowing above her machine is our massive UPS, an absolute must for Puerto Rico where you're lucky to go a week without a powerout.

    My machine is a hand-built setup consisting of an AMD Athlon XP 2000+ with 256MB of RAM, an NVIDIA GeForxe FX 5500 with (I think) 256MB of VRAM, and the rest is pretty nondescript...Realtek onboard sound, an HP dvd-840i DVD burner, a standard NIC that's plugged into our very basic 4-port router, an old emachines keyboard that's in dire need of replacing, some Logitech ball-less mouse, some pretty basic Altec Lansing speakers, and an old 15" KDS monitor that too is in need of replacing. I also have a PS adapter plugged into the USB port so I can use a PS gamepad. I don't quite remember my wife's setup but I believe it's a Celeron 733 with an 8MB video card of some sort and 128MB of RAM...nothing fancy but she doesn't need anything flashy or uberpowerful. She does have a nice 17" LCD monitor though (her 19" LCD monitor quit working after less than 2 months).

    Oh I almost forgot...we both run Windows XP, mine is SP2 and her has no service packs installed. I needed XP to check out XNA, which turned out to be a complete waste of time but that's for another thread.

    Code:
    cout << "Language comparisons are dumb";
    echo("Language comparisons are dumb");
    PRINT "Language comparisons are dumb"
    alert ("Language comparisons are dumb")

    OK, I'll only go as far as the underwear - I failed again.

    I'm not sure if the c-world is ready to see my chiseled face and ill laptop (with all keys present). But I look very like this:

    Code:
    -----------
    |         |
    |  *  *   |
    |         |
    |   O     |
    |         |
    |  -----  |
    |         |
    -----------
    And yes. I was made fun of as a child

    Did they call you Twomers Crunch, because you look like a cereal box.

    That's a horrible thing to say

    Code:
    --------------
    |             |
    |             |
    --------------
    \              \
     \--------------
    My lappy looks similar to that.

    My computer is too sexy and I'm too pretty. It may confuse people.
