Thanks Yeah, everything's in roughly the right place, except the rears are further back and facing inward

It must have took me a good 90 minutes to track down all those images and construct the pic (no camera). Thanks to ebay, I actually found 3 of my VCRs for sale

I should note that the receiver & speakers are an 'in the box' package that sells for $279 at Wal Mart. This is my 2nd set. First one had a little problem detecting audio format changes automatically, but this one hasn't messed up yet.

Update: Actual pics and stuff

Well I've moved into the living room now, and recently took some crappy pics with a one-use camera, so here comes a few shots.

This first is a wide view of the whole front area. Apologies for the quality and the crookedness. I'm just not very straight when it comes to anything.

Now here's a closer view of the left side. TV, sat. box, DVDs and CD cases. BTW, I lied in my original post. My sat. box is actually now the Echostar version, not JVC, but it's the same thing. I had a problem and they sent me the Echo as a replacement.

Here's a view of where I sit when online. Over in the right rear corner. Geez, my speakers look so tiny in these pics

I took this pic whilst without a computer. Now you can picture a beautiful Dell Dimension 4500S, grey and black in place of Carly (my oldest cat) and myself in place of Toonces (my youngest cat)

Just for fun, here's a closer view of my pitiful CD collection. Note the cool design I made with the racks, with space in the middle for music video and DVD

Down below are (left to right) a little robot cat, a cat letter holder and of course, a Big Mouth Billy Bass I should also note that this is the only white wall in the house. A few months ago I decided to paint my ugly paneling white and didn't get very much done.

I have a couple more pics but they're even more stupid so I'll spare everyone. Thanks for looking

Very comfy and homy!
Now all you need to do is hide your wiring some more so the cats won't trip over it.
