[The Show us your Workstation Thread] Keeping tissue boxes where they are

Mangaroo

Alright, this is a show us your workstation thread, a thread for showing us the station where you work, so get to it!

Oh, don't clean it first either, let's see all your crap

Alright, i'll get us started



Full size (sorry for bad quality, it was an iphone snap)

Since I'm (supposed to be) doing work right now, I got rid of all my games and what not and kept it to a bare minimum. I also rotated my monitor for a vertical screen. It makes a nice setup for revision - having powerpoint & a wikipedia page right below it)

Edit: It's actually not so bad for an iphone snap...it's not all that bright inside either

Edit 2: Moved shit around - didn't want to post reply as it's not all about me (and it has only been like a day)

I'm liking the vertical screen setup and somewhere to hang headphones is a great idea. My girlfriend usually throws mine of the floor and they end up getting stepped on.

One day she'll learn to keep electronic equipment tidy. It sounds sexist, but if I mess up a laundry pile she yells bloody murder at me, she breaks my headphones and it's all "so what?". Grr.

Mangaroo

I've broken so many headphones in my time that when I bought these new pair I knew I'd better do something so i just got some bolts and drilled some holes in the wall like a madman, came out alright though!

Kris

God, my setup is such garbage. I can't wait till I get a decent place, so I can set up an awesome office/workstation. I get so excited just thinking about it. :winky:

Desert_Eagle25

I like the air-conditioner exhaust tube. I have the same thing in my room :-D

Mangaroo

=] I just got the thing yesterday, it's so loud and so big and hideous, but damnit, it gets so hot in here that it's worth it - come on folks, get your cameras out and show us your warhammer dolls and ninja turtle rulers (and your comp of course, this is a Tech thread, right Moe?)

Trentus

I was secretly hoping you were going to tell us that you just got new ultra high bandwidth broadband, and that was the cable.

I'll post a pic of both my ghetto setups tomorrow.

Pastoriusk2

Here is my corner in my studio apartment.
Spoilered for hueg.

Having your legs up on a bed with your keyboard on your lap is the most comfortable position ever.

Desert_Eagle25

Holy crap those are huge speakers, man O_o

Pastoriusk2

What you don't see is the 1200 watt 12" sub behind my bed under the window I built. Good thing I like my neighbors, otherwise they would be pissed constantly.

Desert_Eagle25

So how big is the studio apartment? Pretty decent cost atleast?

Pastoriusk2

Its pretty big, I think I measured 18X22 with a little kitchen and bathroom which is sufficient enough for one or two people. $1145 a month in Boston. Its cheaper to live with people, but I hated having roommates so this place is worth every penny to me.

Stupid not being able to turn off the flash on this camera.

That Tool poster was always a little to literal for me.

Silvoculous

It might've helped if I'd looked at that one first.

Khavall

My setup was just moved, and will be again at the end of the week, then I will take pictures.

New rig, and wall-mounted speakers:

I am proud.

I'm sure it would look better if that picture didnt' make my eyes bleed.

I might have to take a picture of my setup once I clean it up a bit.

Jasconius

Oh I am so snapping my office workstation tomorrow.

3 monitors, bitches. 3 of em.

Mugenmidget

Mine is really cramped:



I use that cheap TV above it to display S-Video output from my video card, converted to composite first. :-(

So it can technically be a dual monitor setup but it's more or less just fun to play traditional games (that red wire is a Street Fighter 2 pad which is hooked up to a PS2-to-USB hub) and watch movies/shows.

Two things I like are the PVR-150 for capture and a Gamebridge as well (mostly for Justin.TV fun), which helps explain some of the various wires strewn about. Otherwise it's a fairly ghetto setup...

Here's mine:

Mangaroo

Do you mean the speakers?



harmon kardon soundsticks II

they are really dildos that look like the soundsticks, i couldnt afford the real thing

by the way blanknogo, love the colour matching - is that the logitech vx revolution mouse? mine just arrived today (partly broken) anyway i was reading they eventually i have problems with the hyper scroll wheel - how long have you had yours..do you use the normal scroll or hyperscroll, and hows it working

the main reason i bought it was because i was sending back my apple mighty mouse every few months since the scroll wheel locked...now it seems everyones doing the same with the vx (those who arent fixing it themselves anyway)

Thanks .

It's actually the full size MX Revolution (I only ever use it at home). I've had it for about a year now and I use it in normal scroll (click click click) and have it auto switch to hyperscroll when I scroll really, really fast (I set it at the max setting). I'm not really sure what kind of issue you're describing with the VX, but so far the MX is working fantastically - it's really the best mouse I have ever used.

How much is Rogers/Fido raping you for that iPhone?

It's an unlocked old iPhone, so nothing aside from my regular plan (i.e. I'm being raped no more than the average Canadian when it comes to cellular rates).

Here is my computer space



From this photo I can see:
Transformers Animated Prowl
the sticker I ordered a free CD from over seas and waited a couple of weeks for (I like free stickers)
my video card box
R4 DS Box
digital camera charger
one of those cool little 'CD Mates' cardboard envelopes with a stamp on my brother uses to send me DVDs

Darmak

Here's a couple of quick, crappy pics of my setup:

That's my PC under the desk and my 360 Elite next to the monitor. I had a 19" widescreen monitor sitting on my Xbox but my roommate's monitor died and I loaned him mine. Thankfully my other one has two inputs so it's not a big deal.



edit: yes, those are kitties on my mousepad. I love mine so much.

Silvoculous

That is some ridiculous clutter. And those cords.

Darmak

I know, I really want to clean it all up but I just can't be bothered to. Besides, my girlfriend uses it too and I wouldn't even know where she would want me to put all of her shit. I can hardly decide where to put all of mine.

LittleBoots

Another cluttered desk:

Ego

Can't seem to find my digital camera, so that's a low quality cell phone pic, sorry. When I find my camera I'll take a better one. The primary rig is poking out behind the display, my alternate rig is, er, to the right of the display. Inside the motherboard box... and on top of it. But given what it's for, that kind of the point.

Jandaru

From left to right -
Water bottle and various mints.
Flexible desk lamp, pointed at the wall.
A couple of spindles of DVDs, backups mixed together with blanks for sending stuff to my brother.
Terrible multi-plug setup. Who puts a power point halfway up the wall anyway?
Neglected drawing stuff...
Iron Man atop my external hard drive, Optimash Prime and Animated Optimus Prime on crappy lopsided speakers,
Animated Blackarachnia, Movie Bumblebee and Sam Witwicky (totally not Mutt Williams)

Well yeah, but, Megaman figurines. Optimus Prime's got nothing.

Gaze ye in horror at my messy desk. (This is my work desk, because that's where I am.)

Notable objects: Mayo packet, company secrets, empty vase (nothing living can bear the IT office), Red Hat manual,.

iTunesIsEvil

My work desktop. Only had my phone around at the moment, so it's not the greatest quality. I somehow snagged a corner-office in my second year here, and someone is going to have to pry it away from me.

Kris

I love the artwork. :^:

Thank you! My mom painted that for me.

Azio

This is my desk at home, same as always.

Jasconius

azio you have my keyboard and mouse. my favorite ever...



how did you change the login background in vista?

Jasconius

This is what my home desk looks like after four consecutive 70 hour weeks when I am too tired to anything but post on forums.

Complete with a dozen of those plastic floss thingies that I love to chew on.

It's shameful, I know.
