Ever on the hunt for something to experiment with HDR on, I thought, why not try a shot of the place where I probably spend way too much time :lol:

So, in a cunning and subtle attempt to show it, I thought it would be interesting to see what other peoples PC / Mac / workstation / home-entertainment-hub set-up looks like :D

Take a snap, PP it if you like, and post it in here!

Here's mine

NB No prizes will be awarded for the tidiest set-up :p
 
:( Mines all packed up. Working off me lap at the moment. When I get to Canada I'll have my own office and Ill be building it all myself :). Will post pictures :).

But have to say, those both look like interesting set-ups. One nice and tidy and one the complete opposite :).
 
Slight room reshuffle here at the end of last year so here's our AV setup now

Go on then, you show yours and I'll show mine!!! :p
 
Ross, do you use the bravia as your pooter screen?

I've had my lappy linked into my pio screen and it's :eek:


If I were replacing my REL sub, the only other choice would be an M+K :D
 
The G5 is hooked up to it for viewing avi's mainly, until the xbox360 can support divx/xvid etc

It's great with a bluetooth keyboard and mouse though, but I have tried and failed to get a 1080 resolution over VGA from the Mac.

I have tried two powerstrip type applications but neither have worked so I'm using 800x600 which still looks great

I have moved house since this was taken though, so may have to take another picture at some point! :thinking:

This was about 18 months ago. I'm getting a new keyboard later today and I plan to give the desk a clean so I'll have a new photo later :)
 
Ladybird, I'd be careful about leaving evidence of your coke habit on your desk ;) :D :p

Nice sunset pete, is that HDR ? :D
 
I'm amazed at how many of you have more than one screen. Just curious, but why is that ?

For me its because I write software for a living. I generally have one window for coding and the other for viewing the results. At the moment I am not actually using them as I have moved across to using my Macbook Pro and the machine they are attached to is just used to play music whilst I wait for the funds to get a Mac Pro.

For one I normally have a good few windows open, so by increasing the desktop over 2x 20" panels I can run a 3200x2400 pixel display and don't have to keep flicking between applications

Where is your new pic pete?

If you have time to type you must have time for a pic of your new look keyboard :thumbs:

I've just got in, emails to read, tea to cook and desk to clean. Probably completely the wrong place to ask, but is the spacebar meant to sound clickier than the other keys? Other than that, its lush.
 
IKEA jobby I think Whitewash, I have the Beech version.
 
Cant see the exact version I have Whitewash, but this looks similar, £55
 
I paid £65 for it I think. Jimmy_Lemon is right, it looks like that one, but mine is actually the Jerker (They do a big modular version, but this isn't it).
It looks like theyve upgraded it to include a cable tidy.
Mines the 1200mm version I think. Best desk I've ever owned.....Just the right height, spacious and pretty :D (Only problem is, it's not impervious to a chocolate covered childs fingerprint or 10)
