Post Your Workspace

[SUP3RNOVA]

A 30in seems to be pretty good to me. I can have two full sized firefox windows on the top, or one window and like 2-3 notepads for coding, and then all my IMs run along the bottom.

Try it and you will see. Its great, there are so many things you can do.

Can be coding on one, and looking at the work on the other. Or have your IMS on one while you work on the other.. etc etc.. Once you have two screens, having one seems almost inefficient.

Still in college so I don't have much room in my dorm for the system I would like.
You can see my bathroom on the far left.

Shitty lighting, shitty desk (messy), shitty office. All being upgraded soon but here's where I work right now...

The kleenex within arm's reach is key.

What do you guys do that requires more than 1 monitor

What he said. Having multiple monitors is great for almost anything. Try it.

I love those spacers you have between your hard drives!

Only have access to the Treo crappy camera at the moment, but a better camera still would not make it look much better!

hahaha nothing like college ingenuity... bottle caps, but it gets the job done and keeps things cool.

Mine would still look the same as in the TREO pic I took, eve with a better camera! :-(

I have dual monitors too... but I'm between offices now so all my good furniture is locked up in a storage unit. I'm too lazy to take pics of my current situation because its not that glamorous.

Value productivity. Multi monitor + Virtuawin (Windows) FTW.

I just bought a 3.4 GHZ HP with a 19 inch flat monitor off of CL for $540. I bought a computer with 2.6 GHZ for 2K from Dell.com Returned it.

Anybody here work with *no* workspace? I'm having to give up my office here shortly to become a nursery, and most of the options available in the house don't appeal to me. So I've been kicking around plugging up a hard drive to my router as a file server and going totally mobile via my laptop (will probably need to upgrade the laptop, but that's no big deal -- been meaning to do so anyway.)

Thing is, I'm accustomed to mutil-screens for organisational purposes, and run multiple OS -- four flavours of Windows, two Linux distros and MacOS. All this has to get crammed/stripped down to a single computer+file server in order to work, and that will still leave me with issues like how to maintain some focus and privacy without dedicated office space.

I used to be a serious road warrior before I moved most of my work online, and seemed to get along fine with a briefcase and laptop back then, but for some reason I just can't figure out wtf I need to do to strip this setup back down to the barebones.

Anybody here getting on with just a laptop?
