This is my current Home Entertainment rig – it’s located in my home, and it entertains me. Rosenberg and I spent a good chunk of Sunday moving things around and re-wiring shit to get it looking this nice.

I’m glad this project was tackled – the giant mass of wires behind the TV was some sort of fire-hazard, or at least a hazard to sanity. It looked to be about a foot thick, and I swear it was moving.

Although only two things were removed from the setup – the XBox and the Dreamcast – a total of four power supplies and twenty-something wires were actually removed… I’m still unsure where they came from, but I have not yet ruled out the idea of procreation.

When all was said and done I almost didn’t plug back in the cable box. I’m still thinking – very hard – about pulling it out and stuffing it in a different room.

Maybe, when I’m done with the “Game Room” – the next bit of house work on my list – I’ll move the box into there and – maybe – bring the Dreamcast back into the living room.

Maybe.

   I’m fairly amused by the thought that you want to move your cable box to your “game room” and your game systems to the “tv room”. Either way, YAY for cleaning and organizing. Procreating power cords could be an money making endeavor, I would think.

   And one formatting peeve… can you put some buffer “white space” between the image and the text? Not a lot, but enough so that the text doesn’t blend so well into the image. It hurts my head.

   Yes, well… I hardly ever watch anything on TV anymore, and I figured the cable-box might be more at home with the other things I hardly use but still want to hold on to, i.e. the old systems that’ll be located in the Game Room.

   I’ll keep your graphical request in mind the next time I do something with text. Normally I add at least a bit of a shadow or something to offset the text, but it looked okay in the larger size without so I didn’t.
