phipck Posted September 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Liner33 i could get all geeky but i wont indeed SMARTLY this was the computer that was used to create and then serve the World Wide Web on the Internet, it even has the very first paranoid IT guy sticker on the front which reads "This machine is a server, do not power it down" We have a simular sticker on our intranet server at work, nice to see the fear of cleaners switching things off hasnt changed in over 20 years!

phipck Posted September 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2011 lol, to be fair it was a little cluttered today after stripping pc's and i only normally use that computer for email, driver downloads and software testing.... i then have two spaces for pc repairs and then a second desk should i need it..... but most of my time is spent out and about fixing things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phipck Posted September 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Ah, that's your work desk...that's ok then I hope your one at home isn't as bad though! Nah, home is quite different, 5.1 surroundsound, 40" samsung TFT mounted on a chest of draws, pc stood beside the draws, and a mini fridge beside that. I then modified a computer chair by mounting a platform on the right side so i can sit a mouse mat and mouse on the chair's arm, then have the keyboard on my knees (its how i find working most comfortable for my wrists) which all in all means i dont need a desk at home which is useful as im currently living out of one room at my parents and space is really important heres what it was like about a year ago while my room was at its fullest, fortunatly ive managed to move some of my tools and storage stuff out of the room now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 phipck - I couldn't work without a desk, especially doing graphic stuff with a mouse. Nice 'monitor' though, I really need to upgrade mine, 19" isn't enough! Rich - After I changed the code the photo was displaying and then it gave the error message that was there earlier. I change it back to what it was and it's ok again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
