I quite like my one of my computer monitors.  Its a flat one, and quite
rectangularish.  The other one is older and not such a favourite.

I have one good set of speakers, the others are basic and cheap but have
some nice blue ellipses on them.  I think they both use electricity.

I had eggs for breakfast, and I am waiting to see if they work with my
digestive system, or if its broken.
