I see there are new LED lighting options being made now. LIT is making LED underlight kits for homes. Worth looking into.

While thinking about my "man" room, I found these pictures of an awesome Star Wars home theater. Simply awesome!
This might actually be a Nerd room.



Hrmmm. I have the perfect wall for this in my computer room. But then, that would validate people calling it my "vader-room", which it clearly is not. Wall mounts are available for the FX lightsabers at Saber-Stand.

I've really been wanted to collect some of the movies posters too.

Stylish seating? Data Entry nightmare?

I am not really sure that I needed another upgrade, but I went for it! 
Added this round: 

Another Side mount CPU rack on the right hand side. This one is holding a new high end PC that matches the one on the left.  I left the cabling long enough on this one to reach to a seconday desk for 2player Head to head FPS style games. 

A 24" monitor in the center. The 20" I was using was getting a bit cramped and lets face it, I am not getting any younger and my eyesight none the better. I suspect I am getting very close to the weight capacity of my desk.

Tucked behind the monitors I added the Phillips amBX lighting system. Cause mood lighting is cool.

In the center position of CPU's I've repurposed one of the old PC's to a Windows Home Server, added tons of Storage capacity, moved all my media files and am running automated backups and restore services for the other computers.

4 out of the 6 Gaming PC's are now running Windows Vista 64bit, thanks to a subscription to TechNET plus.
