I was kind of bored today and figured I'd start something here that I've seen other places. Sorry, I'm not that original Smile . We help2go'ers are here helping people for many hours at a time and I thought it would be a fun idea to see your work areas. (Where your computers sit). To help with bandwidth I ask that you please post your images to a free image hosting site such as photobucket or imageshack (.com for both) and point us to a URL. I'll go ahead and start.

Here's my office desk. The one where I work at all the time. I know the monitors are old and the one on the left actually started on fire once but I'm a little too cheap to throw it away. Smile

If there's a really hard question where I have to take something apart to get the answer I go to my work bench.

I'm the "organized chaos" type if you couldn't tell by the pictures Smile and yes, that is a Mac on my workbench. I haven't used one in 12 years and figured it was time to refresh the memory. No, I will never fully switch to Mac. I am a Microsoft Groupie yet I like to have a broad range of knowledge Smile .

"DumpsterDude" but it was already taken Wink

Here's my place:

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/boots44/ftg/myplace.jpg

It's not only where I use the computer but watch TV too. It's very comfy (note the footrest) and I have been known to doze off here Smile

Where's the computer? Well, just the other side of the wall is the garage. I find the whirring of the fans so annoying that the computer is out there. All the leads go through a hole in the wall. A cable with a USB socket on the end is piped through for cameras and memory sticks. A USB DVD/CD combo is this side of the wall too. Mains, stand-by and reboot switches are this side in a cupboard (left).

NO chance ... It's taken 8 years to get it the way it is ... it'll take as long again to tidy up Laughing

My boss says stuff to me all the time about the mess on my desk. But, I can find things when he asks for them, so he doesn't really care that much.

I heard something really good yesterday.

Organized people are just to lazy too look for things. Wink Very Happy

A tidy desk does not mean a tidy mind. It just means that person has nothing to do.
