TechnoBuffalo Office Tour 2.0

I'm sitting here with my trusty 50 millimeter lens right here and when I showed you guys the teleprompter this is the iPad that goes with it, it's got a little receiver that plugs in and a remote that controls the prompter. We've got boxes and stuff that I'm working on reviewing this guy just came in actually, HTC One X Plus for a TNT which would be kind of neat.

So this is my setup, I have two 27-inch Cinema displays paired up below a 12-core Mac Pro with 24 gigs of RAM, which sounds super beastly but if you compare it to like a specked out new Mac Mini, it's not so beastly from a sound setup. I've got two Bose speakers on each side, one on the left-hand tissue box and phone, and one behind the monitor, that's paired to this guy which lets me control the volume. Since the Mac Pro has audio in down below, I couldn't plug headphones all the way down there, so I can plug them in here.

There are a pair of non-battery needing Bose headphones, I love these guys by the way. That's pretty much what Lucy does every day, she'll sit and snort, and eat that actually, I forgot to show you one most important things in my office some of you guys know or might not know we were sued two years ago to reveal a source we ran an article on the Droid Bionic folks at the printing house who printed the materials that we got the leaks on, and weren't overly happy about it. They wanted to reveal our source, they claimed we didn't qualify as press, and therefore didn't get federal and state shield protection. We had to go through sort of a first decision when we lost, we thought we'd have to go to appeals, and we filed sort of a motion for reconsideration uh, and we won it was a really long expensive drawn out process but I thought it was really important for industry to prove that we are journalists bloggers just because we're not writing on politics, we still are journalists.

And I'm particularly proud of this guy sitting right here, if you guys want more information on that, I want to give you the whole backstory, I'm happy to make another video on what happened. Leave your comments down below if you want to see that.

Let me interrupt our office tour to thank our friends and sponsors at Jack Threads only suckers pay full price if you love alternative apparel brands like Kidrobot Hurley Stuycy but hate wasting all your cash on them, listen up clearly I don't love to go to the mall to go shopping but I like to get new clothes sent to me and take out the hassle of parking and walking to department stores if you're like me, Jack Threads is a great way to go.

It's really impressive photography and cinema dot com, it's the Pico Dolly. People always interested in the setup that we have couple TVs from stuff that we're testing right now.
