Farking Bastage posted:I was expecting a lot of those replies, but here's the thing. That setup was put together so that NOTHING is on the floor. The UPS and all the power cabling is tucked away inside that desk. The router and cable modem are wall mounted and in the open to be accessible because there's a workbench just to the right of all that. I wasn't crazy about the sub on the desk, but mounting it would cause a rattle. That PC case is up to because it has a quick swap HDD bay on the front that I use for ghosting disks when needed and I like to be able to get to it. Just one question. Why does it matter if anything is on the floor and why is your sub blasting you in the face and why can't you reach the hdd swap bay if the computer is on the floor?

wolrah posted:My day-to-day workspace. Unfortunately I can't find a good spot for my spare 22" LCD, so I'm down to one monitor on my desktop until I get around to buying a two-way vertical stand or something like that. How big is that tv? You're going to be watching it while sitting at the computer?

Martytoof posted:Would it be some kind of code violation to just run it under the baseboard? That would have made more sense if they didn't want to hack up the wall. It'd be trivial to re-drywall if it came down to it. Unless it's plaster (which it may very well be). If that's the case then it makes sense that they ran conduit instead of dealing with the huge loving mess that plaster is. EDIT: Yeah, that's totally a plaster wall. I bet the doorway is to the right there and that's why the conduit was run along the brick.

I moved to a new place where I have a whole room for my office so I spent/wasted some time on it. Click for the full size. The desk is two maple filing cabinets with a solid maple countertop laid on top. The rest is pretty basic.

dreesemonkey posted:Excellent, I'm thinking about making my own desk in a similar fashion. Where did you get the countertop? I went to a local hardwood place (Crosscut Hardwoods in Seattle) and bought it from them. I paid 250 for the top and about 150 a piece for the filing cabinets which I bought shop-direct. Saved a ton on cables from Monoprice. Bought the printer and got a 22" monitor for free so I went ahead and got (suckered into) the second one to match. For some reason I am now contemplating mounting a third 7" monitor below the main two just for fullscreen irssi.

Triikan posted:So, I've been working and working on getting all my equipment organized and neat, but then I decided to stop being a goon stuck in a separate part of the house surrounded by computer stuff. Found this desk at a garage sale for $20. I've always wanted one of these desks, for some reason, since I was younger. Moved my main rig to the shared room downstairs, moved everything else to the basement (server, routers, switches, modem, etc. Pictures of that when it is done, which should be soon). Why didn't you at least clean it off when you brought it home?

krnhotwings posted:Do your arms ever cramp up 'cause of that keyboard (especially in a work environment)? As much as I love Apple products, their input device designs have always been very unergonomic-looking, so I stray away from them. Nah I don't ever have any issues. I will say that having a magic mouse and a magic pad is overkill to the highest degree.
