Set this up at work just to see if I could. I'll probably dump monitors 2 and 4, they suck and the whole setup is far too wide. Good conversation starter, though. There's theoretical support for a sixth monitor, but I've run out of desk. Considering just putting one up facing my colleague on the other side, as it would make showing him funny youtube clips much easier. Haus of Tech Support thread about this setup here

Those of you using large televisions as monitors, no further away than you would use a normal monitor - doesn't the low dot pitch and sheer gigantic-ness of the screen fatigue the poo poo out of you? 1080P seems just right for a 24-26" monitor at normal distances... any bigger would look lovely. And as for gaming in 1080P from two feet away... eeech.

Welcome to the command center. My office is tiny and I'm literally pressed against the wall as I took this pic. I'm in IT though, lucky I even have an office!

The picture is a few months old. The main monitor changed from 24" to 27" and I want to believe I have tidied up a bit:

Cluttered and messy and rear speakers in the front as no real good place to put them, I should just get 2.1 for my computer and move these logitechs to my room.

Pictures are a bit big, but I'm lazy. Above my desk:  I study chemistry, hence the periodic table and the pilfered glassware on the shelf (and the handy list of fundamental constants on the wall). I can't have an uncluttered desk, if there's space on it then it then I just end up putting stuff there.

 In a one-bedroom flat so space is at a premium. Above me is my bed, the CPU is under the desk. Use the laptop to queue up Netflix / sample my extensive collection of MST and Rifftrax. The external hard drive to the right is semi-active long-term storage; the one to the left is a cold archive where I store backups.

I'll upload some copies when I get home, the one I'm using atm is actually cut up so that the middle is at the right side etc because of my monitor configuration. It's just made from tron wallpapers on google images if you want to have a go at it yourself but I'll put mine up anyway.

 The Acer desktop doesn't see much use lately, I have the keyboard and mouse tucked away below the monitor. Took a while getting used to this set-up and I thought it would be temporary but it has really grown on me.

I've never understood the multiple monitors. I've had two set up in the past and it just got annoying. To each there own I suppose. Here is my current setup. We are living in a very small space while we are in the process of buying a home so I've got everything crammed on what is usually our general use living room desk. Sorry for the horrible pic, camera battery is dead.

What's the origin of the whole guns and milk thing? There's a Glock on my desk right now, but that's just because my desk is where I deposit all of my poo poo at the end of the day. And desks are for storing whiskey, not milk.

I don't mean to sound snarky, but these threads all have a tendency to look exactly the same. Nobody ever points out unique features of their setup that others could use. It would be nice if people pointed out useful/innovative ways people handle Gamepad storage Headphone storage Power/cord management Speaker placement Clutter management!!!

It would be nice if people pointed out useful/innovative ways people handle Fair enough. For headphone storage I use banana hangers (you can by fancy ones on Amazon). I take pride in my nice headphones though and like to show them off, so I keep them out in the open. For cord management I screwed a cord box into the back of my desk. IKEA used to sell it but it's gone from their website. It's basically a big plastic box with holes in the top for cords to pass through. Basically I have two power strips and a USB hub placed in there; the power strips have short leads running to an outlet directly below the cord box. Everything on my desk runs into the box through the holes. To prevent having a rat's nest fire hazard, I keep the cords organized within the box via double-sided velcro. I'm also careful to run the cords into the box in a nice "order" so they appear thoughtfully organized and not just slapped into the holes. The easiest way to prevent clutter management is... don't have clutter. I got into the minimalist thing and threw out/donated most of my belongings. The things I do keep around serve multiple purposes and are usually a little expensive. It's also helpful to get into a routine of cleaning your area daily and not eating at your desk.
