But I might just replace the PC soon anyway. I've had this one since 2006 or so. I upgraded a few components, but it's definitely showing its age. 🙂

I quite like the Dell U2412 monitor–it's 24", 1920×1200, and expensive. I see them at $300 fairly regularly, but recently scored a couple at work for $225 each through the magic of Dell coupons and deal sites.

I like drone music and noise, but computer fans (and refrigerators and vacuum cleaners) really bug me. I'd definitely get the machine off the desk (or opt for something like a Mac Mini (but that's more money still)). How about drilling a hole in the back with a grommet insert or even just notching out the back of the desk?
