In order to give you more insight into who I am, I should I should let you know what I’m working with. Yes, that’s me in the picture. Aren’t I a handsome devil? In my opinion, I think I’ve got a pretty killer set up.

I’ll start with my rig, because there’s a lot to like about it. Here’s what it’s got on the inside:

• 2.20 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo E4500
• 3 GB RAM
• 200 GB SATA HDD
• nVidia 8800 GS
• Gigabit Ehternet Card
• LG Blu Ray / HD-DVD drive
• Lite-On DVD drive

And on the outside:

• Logitech Wireless Keyboard / Mouse
• Logisyscom 2.1 Speaker Set
• Sceptre 19 inch LCD
• Vizio 26 inch LCD HDTV
• Netgear Powerline Ethernet Adapter

I’ve also got it running 3 OS’s:

• Windows Vista
• Windows 7
• Mac OS X 10.5.3 Leopard
• Ubuntu 8.10 (Coming Soon)

Some people ask me why I have so many operating systems. I’m in IT, so it’s good to be well rounded. Having all those OS’s installed allows me to stay up-to-date with the entire industry regardless of OS, and I keep track of all new software updates and patches. People also ask me about the two monitors. It’s called a Dual Screen setup, and I use the Sceptre on my desk for all my work and the Vizio on my wall for media viewing. If you noticed, I also have a Playstation 3 on my desk which is also connected to my Vizio.

That’s my Nerve Center. I ❤ it!
