I would like have 3 TFT 17inch screens instead of these bulky 17 and 19 inch dual display CRT Monitors!

What you like to have or swap the most?

I'd like a nice, attractive assistant for my studio. Obligations would include preparation of tea, sorting records, cutting samples, and other studio "tasks". Must like techno, minimal, long walks on the beach, and candlelight dinners. PM sqook for more details!

I too would like to replace my 2 old bulky nicotene yellow stained CRT's that I bought used over time with some nice big flat panels. Ever since my house got struck by lightning the one I have on the right is very blurry so soon I may have to hunt for another used monitor.

Another thing I would like is a better workstation desk that will fit two screens and my two bx8 monitors in an ideal arrangment...that would also be comfortable. Something I can have several levels to. High level for screens and monitors, mid level for x-station and mouse, and lower level for keyboard. I may build something once I move in a few months.

My wishlist
1. Figure out where the cat pissed and clean it!
2. Go through the hugepile of unmarked CD's and sort them!
3. A hash pipe that could only be used to listen to finished tracks
4. Another Flat Monitor which gave me levels and frequency spectragraphs(nerd!)
5. A drill sargent who shouted at me when my mind wandered

A nice big chair

A 27" Flat TV so i can play video games or my studio partners can play games while you wait

10 Record crates that actually fit records

new monitors - KRK's maybe? that don't sit on the same table as my keyboard

another LCD

A nice couch so I can be comfy while I play Doom 3 for XBOX

A nice rack mountable DJ mixer - the Rane is nice but it's like 7 years old

A big poster of Carl Cox pointing his finger in the air smiling really big

that should do it!
