Re: Show us your workstations

Interesting stuff

Note how Saxo's camera isn't at head height And how Roy tries to be macho with the beer in shot, but has carefully put something underneath the glass to avoid marking the desk. Very new man. Those stains are hard to remove. Gareth's is very utilitarian - no fluffy toys or pictures. Zinglebarb's would say "typical male den - the modern potting shed" but most men could fit a curtain rail instead of nailing up the curtain, so it's drifts more towards "serious techy".

I'd post mine but it's a mess Coke cans, chocolate wrappers, books, CDs, discarded printouts... all in a heap around my PC. Really going to have to sort it out

There is a a valid reason for the lack of curtain rail.there used to be one.
The 2 speakers you see at the top are passive surrounds for dolby Es and DTS EX soundtracks they have to be there and the rail got in the way so the rail had to go

An btw ive shown you mine now you show me yours

Yes - it's been done before - on the 'How Clean Is Your House' programme a PC keyboard was swabbed - it's owner had a habit of feeding his tropical fish then eating at the PC. The amount of E Coli they found was staggering!
Mind you that's not as bad as the woman whose window frames were heaving with Candida....... The mind boggles!

I might post a pic of our 'workstation' later - the ethernet cable trailing upstairs will have to be removed first, just makes it look too untidy otherwise!

Mein Gott! I'm going to start a charity to help some of you CF members that look like you're living in squalor.
