I know it isn't the biggest upgrade, but I got a free monitor from work, and I finally got all the wires off the floor [almost]..

Where did you get those three little lights?

That is a VERY nice setup. Only thing to make it better would be two matching monitors.

Thanks, i also wish I had matching monitors, but I've been holding back on purchasing either dual 24" HP LP2475W or a single Dell 30" 3007WFP-HC. I actually got the 19" for free so I really can't complain, but hopefully within the next few months I grow a pair and pick up either of the two options above.
 
Lowes and some other places also carry similar light, thats where i got mine
 
RAFA! I love it! just adding another monitor makes it look soo much better! 2x 24in will deff. be hot! Keep it up my friend!

I got this one from work, im a contractor for Herman Miller, so I won this bad boy at the company golf tournament, they run around $400-700 depending on the features your looking for. There are also three different sizes, A(Small seat pan) B(Medium seat pan) C(Large seat pan)
 
After looking in the local Office Depot and Best Buy and finding nothing that suited me, I resolved to build my own desk. This is the result.

What I was using. Way too small.

I found a set of plans and went to work. I used the same basic shape, but extended the right arm to double as a night stand. I had to order the flange and T-joints from the guy's company, but everything else is readily available at Lowes or Home Depot. You do need a router and a few other power tools, but nothing extraordinary.

After a few coats of primer and paint.

I used galvanized fence post like the guide suggested. Getting the legs and cross supports cut to length is probably the biggest snag you'd run into. The old man making himself useful. I guess I won't put him out on an iceflow just yet.

Once the fence post is cut and top is done, its no different then assembling a desk you'd by in the store, just requires an allen wrench.

The finished product.

You can't just grab the URL from the top of the page of the photo, you need to go to the all sizes link and grab the URL from the box to get the direct URL.
 
Finally got that wall-mount for the display I see. Very, very nice Vegan. I hope you posted those on MPC too!

I like your sense of style too BTW. Very nice.
 
Sort of messy since September and pics are somewhat grainy since it's from a cellphone.
If I was in a dorm rather than an apartment, I don't think I could fit anything else after setting up my workstation.

Here's my dorm workstation, [H] crash deleted it the last time I posted. Soo much faster than the backup Acer I had been using as my main before! :D

Nice, i like how simple it is.

What happened to your desktop? Are you now *only* using the laptop? I thought you had a desktop in a rocketfish case.
