I paid $36 for the case, it came with a 400W Powmax PSU. You know the fireworks displays on the 4th of July? I had a miniature one of those after about 2 weeks. If fireworks are illegal in your area, just buy one of these, you won't be dissapointed.
The case along with several other components were from my first home built computer. I quickly learned that drives usually don't come with silver fronts. Unfortunately it was a bit too late.
Current specs:
Sempron 3000+ socket 754
Gigabyte ULi mobo
1GB DDR333 (1X512, 2x256)
Sapphire X1600pro agp
an 80GB (main) and 160GB (storage) SATA HDDs
sound blaster live 24 bit
Optorite CD player / coaster maker
Original specs:
Athlon xp 2000+
EPoX VIA KM400 mobo
512MB DDR333 (2x256) - still in use
Sapphire 128MB 9600se
80GB IDE drive
(same CD drive, floppy, sound card, case, PSU still in use)
Ah, well, its hard to see what is what from the pics, lol. Some info is always a good thing so guys like me don't come across like an ass. 
I don't know what you mean by the only CRT that does true HD though. 1080i is the highest right? So thats 1920x1080. I have a 22 Lacie blue monitor that does 2048x1536.I guess you mean considering its 16:10, it has the right aspect ratio for HD. My crt does look better than any LCD, but it takes up too much room on my desk. Its not as heavy as yours, only 70 some odd lbs.
Nice set up though. I'm guessing it for audio encoding work etc considering its silent and your audio equipment is out of this world from the looks of it. And I thought I was doing well with hooking up a receiver and some bookshelf speakers to my computer.
I like it though. Whats the specs?
This is my desktop. Since its not just a typical keyboard/mouse/monitor, I'll post it.
In order, left to right:
Benq FP767 17" monitor, samsung 240T 24" lcd. Other stuff is just modem,router, speakers.
This thread needs a bump. No one else has pictures of their computer they'd like to show off? Mine is crap and even I posted 
.
I'm too ashamed to post pics of mine. My rig is pretty much a piece of crap.
Pretty hardware, ugly case:
Athlon X2 3600+ @ 2.4 GHz (Scythe Katana 2 HSF)
2GB DDR2-800
HiPer 580W modular PSU
MSI GeForce 8800GTS 320MB
Sound Blaster X-Fi Platinum
(I've since added a TV Wonder 650 Pro, but it kinda gets lost in underneath the GTS, so I decided not to update the picture)
I affectionately call it the "Fallout" case, as I think it would look more at home in Vault 13 than a LAN party 
Ahh nice topic.
I will make some pictures tomorrow of my "el-cheapo" pc 
Front view, case lighting on:
The gray tube on the left is part of the desk, and the gray/black box on its edge is an external hard-drive case.
Front view, case lighting off:
Side view showing the dragon-shaped window (should've cleaned off the fingerprints first, oh well):
Interior:
Pentium 4 530 (3.0GHz), Abit Fatal1ty AA8XE motherboard, 1GB GeIL DDR2, GeForce 8800GTX, 957GB in four hard drives, Silverstone Strider 600W, Swiftech watercooling, Lian-Li PC-6085B with powdercoating.
Yes, that is an 80-to-120mm fan adapter hanging off the back. The 80mm Swiftech radiator handled the "Prescott" Pentium 4 and a GeForce 6600GT fine with a 32CFM 80mm fan, but when I put in the BFG 8800GTX Water-Cooled Edition it was a bit overloaded. (It was not a well-planned upgrade.) So now there is a 120x38mm 90CFM fan pulling air through the radiator, and temps are better. I added the front intake fan recently, and temps are a little better yet. Still not "good", but better than they were. My next step is to take the CPU out of the watercooling loop and see how the 80mm rad fares with only the 8800GTX. Which will be a nontrivial undertaking, so I have been putting it off...
There are some nice looking rigs here. I guess I'll resurrect this thread and put a few of mine up. It isn't nothing particularly special, but I did some updating and stuff so I figured why not. Although there is still plenty of upgrading still to be done.

Wow Grimmy, freakin sweet workplace .... I wish I have one...
Heh.. tanks. I pretty much fell in love with the desk when I saw it at a furniture store for $200. I like how wide the keyboard slide table is. Plenty of room for my mouse and keyboard. Then brought a side shelf to house my UPS / scanner / printer / monitor / stereo.

This is a hobby PC users dream, enjoy!
Somewhat offtopic and without any intention of offending any of these pc owners but...so many leet machines, so many time and money spent on them, and also so many of them destinated to be dished for a new rig within 1 or 2 years!

Bomber is my best friend and my bulldog. He keeps my feet warm when I game during the winter. Here are some photo's of my killing machine. This is my second pc build and I gotta say the second time around was a piece of cake. Kraze has the big daddy version of my case.
This is Bomber he just turned 6 Jan 22,09. Sleek, clean, sexy case. Kraze did a great job picking my first custom case.
This is my first dog and he is a very good dog/unofficial clan mascot.
Open Wide..
inspired by Redline/Casca
I spend quite awhile to clean up my wires.
Just as clean on the inside as it is on the outside. There are a few of us that have the same graphics card. This thing is wrapped in metal all the way around and Ginormous. It is longer then my mobo. I had to remove my HDD cage to install my vid-card and it has exactly 1/16" of clearance before it touches my HDD cage.
My killing screens and Maxim keeps me entertained when I am dead. Yes, those are my MP notes I use to patrol our server.
Priceless foot warmer.
Stay tuned for a water cooling system in the near future.
