So, why does everyone here have 2 monitors?

And if its like, having one open to internet, instant messenger, music, movies, etc. While having the other on like CS or HL2. I;ve been wondering how I would do that, because I'm getting a new computer soon, and I might want to have a crappy old Dell monitor off to the side that I can just hti a button to switch to and then IM someone or something of the sort, while playing CS.

Specs:

Case: Antec SLK3800B Black Rackmount
Hard Drives: 200gb Maxtor Diamond Max 7200 RPM, 40gb Western Digital7200 RPM
Monitor: LG 715Z17" 16ms LCD Monitor
CD/DVD Burner: Sony IDE Burner 48x
RAM: Corsair XMS 1gb (2x 512)
Speakers: Creative I-Trigue L3450
Video Card: GeForce 7800GT
Sount Card: Creative Sound Blaster Audigy2
Fans: Aspire 120mm Red LED fan
Headset: Turtle Beach TBS-2110-01 (5.1 Suround sound, with mic)
Mouse: Logitech MX510

Not only my desk, but my entire room is a mess. Papers all over the desk, books, boxes, cables and a million other things. On my floor there's clothers, bags and huge piles of dust. I wish I could keep my desk as clean as yours satch.

I haven't got a camera, but I'll see if I can borrow my bro's.

My wife's desk, however, is my worst nightmare.

Papers and books stacked up way high, and half-full cups of tea and snack wrappers everywhere. Things just get swallowed up by the mess like a big black hole. In fact, I think I've found a hippo wandering amidst the papers once.

But that's the way she likes her desk. I even spent the entire day cleaning up her desk once, but it all goes back to the big mess very quickly. I've given up.

...sometimes I find it difficult not to get distracted when I'm working in there.

At least I manage to get by with one monitor.

Yes, that IS:

  1. A Buddha statue
  2. another Buddha
  3. a bright green rabbit with a tennisball in his lap.
  4. a plush blood drop behind that.
  5. a 1967 "mercury" insignia on the front of my PC
  6. a spongebob kite i got from my brother in UK.

The top says Sator Letifer, which means "death machine" in a way in Latin.

Nickeltop also says "Atari" on it.

Crappy desk, eh?

Actually, an elite keyboard is quite the opposite. No letters. Completley blank. (look for them, they exist)

SNES: Unfortunately I don't have any games you can play with more then one player. Exept Tetris2. Kinda lame. It's not porperly connected either. When I got this new desk there was a lott of work to do. And I didn't do this part yet. I shall make a photograph of all these wires behind the desk and the shelve. Incredibly.


That old TV is black/white. I only use it for checking the image when I copy a digital movie (DVD) on VHS. The VCR is locaed directly above the TV. And the SNES is supposed to run with TVin on my computerscreen. (As long it is properly connected)

These CDs are partially full of data and the others are empty ones. I try to seperate them (I don't want to lose track of all these ammouts of data (nickelpalte sends me.... uhhhhh))

This clock is there for when I turn off the screen and/or shut off the PC. I've got a clock in almot every side of the room. This small clock also is used as an alarm clock. I hate it to lose track of the time.

This is not a bike seat. This is my desk lamp. It is turned the other way around so the light hits the wall behind and enlightens the room quite cosy.



This colour idea is quite nice. Very clearly laid out.


Never try to be perfect - just try it and make the best out of it
