Tour of a Geeks Desk - March 2011 - Extended Edition

[The12345Kieran]

Who else doesn't know what streaming is?

[jazst21]

geeks aren't people who have tons of money to buy things. but those who have unique achievements not many people could understand.

you should explain more what you are doing with those expensive stuff. or else, this is just another rich kid video

[jazst21]

u sure have money just for fun. nothing productive, fully consumptive.

[brunobrazda]

This isn't a geeks desk...

It's a Youtubers desk :D

[drumy7869]

is that the universal dock and is that the iphone 4?? if both of those things are, then how snug does it fit, or is it really wobbily or what??

[jaketvee]

@drumy7869 It's the universal dock but it's a second generation iPod Touch. I can't comment on the iPhone but the iPod can wobble backwards and forwards a fair amount.

[drumy7869]

@drumy7869 ohh thanks though

[epidyfilms]

good luck if u move XD

[shazenmaire]

I couldn't understand 95% of what ur trying to explain but it was still entertaining lol

[Murdocke89]

@MarshMellowChronic obvious troll is obvious

[boxen76]

I <3 IKEA

[MarshMellowChronic]

if you went out more you would realize you dont actually need half that stuff,

im not hating im just saying that there are other ways to spend your money and enjoy life. 3 screens and a projector really? your 17 years old dude have some fun, i would od that if i could.

[adamkiksyou]

@MarshMellowChronic Everyone's definition of fun is different. And if he bought all this stuff I believe he knows if he did something bad or good.

Hi

I am going to buy a new home theater system with the BenQ w1000+ and either Onkyo HT-S3305 or Onkyo HTR-538B. Any tips on what reciever to get? I'm gonna stream movies from my laptop to the projektor and i want some nice sound though the HDMI :)

[jaketvee]

@XclusiveFilms08 I don't know anything about the second receiver you mentioned but I'm sure you won't be disappointed which ever Onkyo receiver you choose. I have the S3305 which is fantastic for the price, especially considering that the speakers come with the receiver.

[XclusiveFilms08]

@jaketvee ok thanks for the advise :)

[oTrYH4RdZ]

what dell monitor do you have ??

[jaketvee]

@oTrYH4RdZ It's a Dell U2410. :)

[Smithtss]

you know you can run windows 7 on bootcamp

[jaketvee]

@Smithtss I do run it in bootcamp and I have VMware boot the BootCamp partition. I'm going to remove Windows from my iMac though, because I've bought a PC laptop instead. BootCamp was an inconvenience and VMware was slow.

[J1M0TEE]

For a youngster, you have a sickening amount of tech there. Makes me queasy watching it..

[YourMacTutorialz]

one nice setup

[Roflcopter4b]

Why on earth do you have an iMac and a Mac Mini? I dont even...

[themilonoblet]

@Roflcopter4b ...finish my sentence? :)

[Roflcopter4b]

@themilonoblet Ellipses generally denote the trailing end of a thought, thereby ending the sentence.

[themilonoblet]

@Roflcopter4b Witty remark fail :( (at myself)

[TIRanald]

@Roflcopter4b He explained it clearly in the video...

[KNighcturnal]

"imuck" lol

[dcsiple]

From Wiki:

The Morse code message written into the drive case is made up of a selection of the words "personal", "reliable", "innovative", "simple", and "design". The first occurrence of "innovative" on the My Book Pro and My Book World Edition reads "innovateve" ("e" is one dot in Morse, "i" is two dots).

[axflorida]

great update, jake! you've some so far.

[hacingyourtech]

is the htc hero a good phone???

[GraciePlusOne]

Well Jake, I wish I had that much equiptment :')

And your Dell? Man, my inspron 17 laptop wanted to cry in a corner haha x)

You should be a presenter!

[delilahtoldmetodoit]

You have no idead how excited I got when you said "time machine" then I realised you weren't talking about a TARDIS or something :P

[sexycodyboy]

Your vlogs are such a joy. Might I suggest you push your talents into AV documentary production. You would make a bang up presenter Jake.

[Austenmad24]

Awesome video and what a awesome lay out!! :-) 

[willp997]

how to u get those screen savers and do they work windows?

[MKT445]

what Mic stand are you using because i have the same Mic ( HTDZ HT-81) ???? and i want a stand like that

[jaketvee]

@MKT445 It's a Soundlab stand I got from a local store many years ago so I don't know the model. Having said that, I think the bit which the microphone attaches to came with the mic, the stand only had a thread on the end.

[MKT445]

@jaketvee Thank you for your Help :) what is the big bulky thing in Mixer (channel 1)

[jaketvee]

@MKT445 Oh that's just a receiver for a cheap wireless mic which I don't actually use anymore.

[MKT445]

@jaketvee

i really want to be you, because you own a Mac LOL

M

[Andykiller525]

Very nice video and setup, Jake! :D I wish I had all that stuff :( haha :D

[themilonoblet]

nice room :). How much did it cost? (the tech, not the actual room :D)

[TheMaxedTank]

Cool.
