I took two photos today
One is my actual work workstation
Obviously I have tons of car fluids and work for Acura. I have my own phone and chair. Total big shot
while the other is my desk at my apartment
Chock full of important adult papers and bills! Also knick knacks out the ass such as my spider-man lunch box I won from a claw machine. A classy Zelda DS on there as well.

As you can see, I live like I thought it'd be awesome to as a child.
I wasn't wrong.
I just made this new workstation, computer used to be in the living room, and decided to move into my room in my apartment.
I love that now I can lie in my bed and watch movies on my computer.
Also is it me or is your tower case big enough to hide midgets in?
SWEEET! I had a 1040ST (actually, i still have it in the basement somewhere). Was a great machine -- I composed a ton of music on it.
Before the 1040 I had an Atari 800.

The only thing I moved was my iPhone which I used to take the picture... Actually, I did move a sheet of paper containing a bunch of passwords...

funny how the atari was the "music machine" when it only had a 3 channel tone generator... (compared to the amiga's 4 channel PCM) Still I guess back then people would take anything that had MIDI ports. I'm much more an amiga guy.
Everything I did was via the built-in MIDI ports so I wasn't limited by internal sound generators. At the time it supported up to 16 midi channels (might only have been limited by the software I was using). I had all sorts of keyboards and drum machines plugged into it. So much fun.

For shame Tramiel, for shame.

OMG are you using a welcome mat or something as a mousepad? It's huge!

The old Gateway computer doesn't do anything; it's just there.

After that, I get to move my bed into my office while I repaint and refloor my bedroom.
Sorry about the image quality, the good phone is charging, so I have to use my work phone.
That pink magazine might look like porn, but it's not.
I think I might get a new desk to replace the actual office desk when the office is finished. Maybe I will wall mount the screen like Azio did.
shockingly basic, I know
Oh cmon take a photo.
it will make the updated version look even better

HAH! Is that Juno? I bought a new Juno 60 back in the early 80s. I miss it.

Man, I really want one of these multi-monitor setups. 24 inches just ain't enough.
8-)
The con of an HDTV as a monitor is that I'm capped at 1920x1080, but the pros are it was much cheaper to go with an LCD TV at this size compared to an LCD monitor, I have a ridiculously huge amount of screen real estate (being able to have two pages of a character bible open next to two pages of text is pretty awesome), and picture in picture means I can watch TV/movie or play videogames while I'm supposed to be working.
It does change your requirements for a desk and chair, however, since your line of sight needs to be a little bit higher to prevent neck strain (which I am starting to feel now due to using the temporary desk and chair).
Being able to kick back in the chair and watch a 1080p blu-ray in the office is pretty nice if the living room is occupied, though.
Getting the multi-monitor setup at work was the best decision. I somehow convinced my boss to upgrade me from a single 15" screen to dual 17" monitors so I can have code on one screen and the resulting output on the other.
I hate it. I'd be perfectly happy with three monitors / two pc boxes and alt-tabbing between programs, but that's too complex for the other people that use this desk on the other shifts.
I wish there was one in Indy.
