UPDATED: This photo is over five years old and is out-dated. If you are interested in seeing what my half of our office looks like Click Here. I've switched almost entirely over to Mac and things are a lot simpler overall.
Old Description of Office as it Was in 2005:
I spend a lot of time here. It's my half of our home office (my wife has the other half). I work out of my house about 40% of the time, and my wife works out of the house in the evenings and weekends. We both work a good bit... so we are in this room more than any other in our house.
Anyways, my side of our office is filled with tech stuff. I have two large tower cases (one is a server, the other is my desktop), my work laptop, my personal laptop and my Macinotsh G4.
These machines connect to another group of computers in my basement (I have six runs of CAT5e cabling between my 2nd floor office and basement). I run my firewall (Smoothwall), two test linux systems, and another Windows XP machine running next to my music/audio stuff, all out of my basement to avoid the complete geek overrun of the office. In fact soon the server and desktop machines will also move to the basement and into a custom rack enclosure (along with my other mess of boxes downstairs) I will then build another AMD dual core system to be my desktop computer. As my current desktop is headed to be a virtualization server (VMWare) which will act as a test bed /home lab for me.
All the fast stuff connects via gigabit ethernet (Server, Main Desktop, G4 Macintosh, downstairs XP machine and my wife's HP nc8230 laptop), the other stuff has to stay in the slow lane with fast ethernet connections, or wireless connections if I feel like walking about.

Here is a link to the photo of my real office which isn't nearly as exciting.
NOTE: This photo made it into Flickr's 'Explore" as one of the top five hundred most interesting photos on a particular day. You can see all of my photo's that have made it into the Flickr Explore pages here.
First you punch in what subtainance you want, then go into the food room and it will be ready on the big black box!
This is my son's computer desk. As you can see: (a) he has been studying hard recently; (b) he clearly obeys my request not to eat at the keyboard. Maybe he though I said "don't eat off the keyboard."
I've told him that his obsessional neatness is like an illness, but he just won't "chill out".

Seriously, dear, time to upgrade. I know your computer technically still works, but nowadays they come powered by electricity instead of a hamster wheel. It is sooo much more useful and less prone to starvation when pressed into server duty.
My Ikea Desk hack. Total cost was about 60 bucks (AUD). Parts used were the CAPITA stainless steel brackets and the EKBY AMUND shelf all on a MICKE Desk. There are also DIODER led strips behind the monitors and under the shelf.
Love to hear your comments.
Find out more about this build here and more photos as well.

Few people inquired about what gear I use here so here's a little info:
Behringer MS20 24-Bit/192 kHz Digital 20-Watt Stereo Near Field Monitors
Has optical input, way better quality than your crappy computer speakers. Good price too...
Dual Monitor stand for 17 - 24in LCD Monitors
Pretty heavy and is pretty adjustable so good piece of kit.
Lexar USB 3.0 Dual-Slot Reader
This thing is fast! Makes getting those images off CF or SF way faster.

Last night, I saw a comment from one of my dear Flickr friends, Clive Morris, on one of my pics. I hadn't heard from Clive for a while, and being caught up in my own little world, realized it had been a while since I'd asked how he was doing. The last I'd heard, he was going through treatments for cancer, but he seemed to be doing well, and sounded quite up about it all. I thought things must be under control. Still, when I saw the comment, I thought I'd better pop over to his stream and see how he was. It was then that I realized that the sweet comment had been made by his wife, Rosey, and that Clive had passed away on Sept. 7. I was so upset, I began to cry miserably, because I hadn't even known. I haven't had much time for commenting lately, and had no idea what had happened, and what poor Rosey must be going through! It was a shock, and left me feeling deeply saddened.
For those of you who didn't know Clive, he was a Christian man, and had been serving in ministry for years, always caring for others, and sharing the life he and Rosey shared with delight. Here on Flickr, Clive expressed the awe he always seemed to have over God's creation, amazed at the delicacies of a spider's web, or the lifestyles of people on the other side of the world. It seemed the people in Clive's photos were always smiling, and I imagine a lot of that had to do with how they felt around him. His enthusiasm was contageous, and I was always amazed by it. Being somewhat jaded and cynical, myself, the pure, innocent way Clive seemed to view the world and everything in it made me wish I was more like him. He was a good photographer, but he was an even better man. He will be missed greatly, because his kind of man is rare- one who causes others to want to be better.
I don't recall Clive ever complaining about his sickness or pain. Right up until the end, it seems, he was in good spirits, and still living and sharing that life with us. He was so full of life that the concept of death around him is hard to fathom. But Clive is gone now, and even for those of us who didn't know him in person, there is a rift- a void- that his presence no longer fills. He's the kind of guy you really miss.
Our lives have become so virtual. We have computer jobs, online schools, and virtual friends. Some of the people we "know" here online are more real to us in some ways than the folks we see in our everyday lives. I know for a fact that some of the folks on here have been BETTER friends than my "real" life friends! The drawback is that we are far apart. We only show the things we want to, and we only reveal what we want the world to know. We can pass in and out of each other's lives leaving even more of a void than if we had been in each other's presence, because there is no closure, having really had no tangible relationship. Between us, we have photographs, and we have words. There are no real hugs, no kisses, and no touches- no physical reminders that we exist except in a virtual world where we are what we want to be, or at least, what we THINK we want to be. We touch, but in some ways, on a deeper level- through the soul. That is the part of us that can be so very cut off in our day to day lives. Here, we reach out in a different way, and some of us do an incredible job of it.
Clive was never in our physical world. He existed, and still exists, in a virtual reality for us. Clive isn't dead- only his body is. Perhaps computers can teach us a bit about spirituality, and about eternity, about God, and the transitions of life we have trouble understanding sometimes. Clive is with God. He trusted Jesus in this life, and he is embraced by Him in the life he lives now. Some of us will see him again, and some for the very first time. In a way, this life we live in "reality" is more the virtual life than what we sometimes have online!
To Rosey, I offer my sincere sympathy for the loss of her dear husband. She knows she'll see him again, but it doesn't make the loss easier. To everyone else, I offer you a second chance to share a little of Clive and Rosey's world by sharing the photostream where he opened our lives up to theirs. It is well worth the visit, because this was one well lived life, and it always will be. www.flickr.com/photos/31218689@N07/

We love you, Clive and Rosey! God bless.
This is my computer workstation setup, as of November 15 2007. The desk is the IKEA FREDRIK (128cm wide version). The middle shelf is set higher than normal to accomodate the height of the Dell 3007WFP 30" LCD display. Mouse over the photo for more detailed notes.
You might notice I have a lot of pictures of Sarah's back. There could be three reasons for that. 1) it is pretty 2) she mistakenly believes turning away is an avoidance strategy for picture time 3) she told me FIFTEEN minutes ago she was ready to leave, so I am now paying her back.

I just got a studio apartment downtown. Its small but I love it. I'm not finished designing it yet, I still need a few more things, any suggestions? Gotta love that 30th floor view.
This was posted for a new group "Messy Desk Contest".... No prizes but just a lot of fun...
Check it out here ;-D
Here's the finished project. While I'll admit it isn't usually this clean, the large surface is extremely convenient. Before, I barely had room for a scrap sheet of paper!
Here you are. Our three laptops, a netbook, a tabletpc and a desktop pc. See the notes for more details.
I took the photo on purpose, after seeing that a previous photo "Our computers" [http://www.flickr.com/photos/angelaypablo/860181962/] was, by far, the most viewed photo on my flickr photostream.
All of them are running GNU/Linux, of course
Not in the still of the night, not when nobodys around I watch everything from Sci fi! I think I need a 90 inch Tv thou!
I do not have pics of phase one, but it was basically the same desk, minus the hutch portion. The original plans for the desk. I built this about 3 years ago. Total cost was around $100. The frame is made of high quality 2x4's, the top surface is a 24"x80" hollow interior door topped with black mdf I scored from a retail remodel job.The upper hutch is made of 8" wide pine with 1/4" plywood on the back. The lower back portion is black mdf from a retail upgrade job. The unit is screwed together with large wood screws.
