That's not a bad idea for a stopgap solution until I get the plexiglass one sorted out. Hmmm....

Nice work!

Thanks! Last night I figured out how to remove the "welcome" screen and the "exiting windows" screen as well as remove all desktop icons and hide the taskbar (it still pops up for a split second though). Next on the list is the changing the windows loading and shutting down sounds. I also want to remove the mouse arrow (I'll probably change it to be one black pixel or something). I'm getting close to completely hiding the PC! :cheers:

Thanks! I'm going to make another one eventually since the current one doesn't really do it justice...

--- Quote from: javeryh on March 04, 2008, 09:55:21 am ---I want to get a wireless set so I can just pull out the keyboard and mouse when I need to do something and not open up the cabinet. It would be frivolous though and they are expensive...

Errrm, if you consider $20 expensive (which I often do). ..

Wow! Those aren't expensive... and Paterson is fairly close too. I was looking around a few weeks ago and I kept coming up with $20 for each and I couldn't justify sinking another $40 into this thing for something totally frivolous but I'll bite at $20! Thanks!!!

Hello Javeryh,
Sorry that I didn't respond to your last request...
I've been more busy than I thought with Edouard, even though is sleeping almost 10hrs per night :cheers:
From your video, I gues that you figured out yourself how to do it.
Your layout is pretty slick... Congrats!
Jay

No worries Jay - without your initial help I never would have been able to get it looking like it does now. Thanks!! Believe me, I know how busy kids can keep you!

You may want to look into getting a Media Center wireless keyboard with mouse feature built in, like this. I have one for my cabinet and it works great. I have a piece of velcro on top of the machine that holds it when it is not in use.
On another note, I am still waiting to hear back about the dust washers. I will let you know.
