poty posted:Beautiful room. I think you have very good taste gee thanks!  Zurich posted:That looks really nice - isn’t the bar stool uncomfy to sit at for long periods though? Not really, it encourages an more upright posture and whenever I get too uncomfortable I go do something else or sit in the other chair, doing other stuff, like reading for term papers. I kind of don't want to get too comfortable in front of a computer, which is the sole reason I got the desk at that height.

Fair enough, thats a pretty decent reason. My room came with a lovely plastic chair, perhaps I should use that instead of this comfy motherfucker (£40ish from Costco, I never want to leave it hence I’m at my desk most of the time  )I haven’t posted in here since I moved flat, so…

 Well, Ikea has this which is pretty much my bar stool except shorter, and it doubles as an bonafide mini-coffeetable for food/drink, plus it's only £ 7.99! clicky Plus it stacks!  I'm not so sure about using it as your only means of non-transportation, though, unless you got a couch or something.

syphon posted:Bumping the thread just so I can quote myself with my new rig. I moved, bought a new desk, sold the old PC (and am now using the MBP exclusively), and even got a new username! About the only thing that's the same here is my monitor and MBP. What are you using to "dock" your MBP in that shot? How stable is it? I used to use an external monitor with the lid closed on the MBP, but got sick of the extra desk space it was taking up. This seems like a nice solution. Also, how do you normally power up? I used to just hit the power button and close the lid during boot, but I imagine that's not terribly convenient with that configuration. Love the clean setup, btw.

It'll then start up as it's just on the external.

http://www.artek.fi/products/chairs/11 I thought that chair looked drat familiar I personally like the 3 legged version better http://www.artek.fi/products/chairs/128 That said Artek is expensive as hell, not exactly being able to compete with IKEA with its over 100e pricetag per chair.

It'll then start up as it's just on the external. It's times like this when I really wish that Mac keyboards still had the power button on them like they did back in the day. Why did they take such a useful feature out? I've got to fumble around on the back of my mac mini every time I want to turn it on (which admittedly isn't often, but still). I know it's off topic, but does anyone know if the old USB Mac keyboards (like the ones that came with the colorful iMacs) have power buttons that work with current Macs?

My MacBook (personal) and Dell D820 (work) are missing from the shot, and the printer is off to the side. I think you'll get the idea anyway though.

I've got to fumble around on the back of my mac mini every time I want to turn it on (which admittedly isn't often, but still). The official answer was that powering on the computer was a hack that was not in the USB spec. No as for why minutae like that would ever stop Apple of all companies; I have no idea. Maybe someone plugged it into a PSU and friend their power supply or mobo or something. I don't believe that they'll power on a modern Mac anymore.

Here's my hobbit hole. I've since taped up all of my LEDs after realizing how distracting they were thanks to that blue LED thread. I didn't tape up the NAS yet but I'm going to see about at least disabling the LCD. Then we have workbench #1 which is mostly computer stuff. Workbench #2 is mostly car stuff.
