Computing environment // General Discussionwing.Sep 15, 2001, 8:55pm
I just moved my PCs from my basement workshop to a nice home office (former
master bedroom) because my tinkering machines had finally claimed the last bit of available space. I'm not sure if it's the smaller size of the room or the extremely odd geometry or the absense of flourescent shop lights or the fact that I'm working off of desks now instead of tables and counters, or maybe the fact that there's some decor in here (part carpet, part hardwood, wood panel walls, some REAL windows, those of you who have ever almost lived in a basement 24/7 know what I mean), but AW's standard graphics and textures actually look 25% decent. That's a 15% improvement. Anyone else have any comments on this interesting phenomenon? Oh yeah, if you're a music fan and your PC's in a cavernous room, try moving it into your bedroom or somthing, it's almost incredible how much of a difference it makes. |
