gr1Mo... they're from the Ikea store... I designed them from the various Ikea desk parts. The tops are called Vika Amon and the legs are called Vika Curry. I paid $30 for each top and $5 for each leg, for a total of $100. Best $100 I've ever spent on a desk if you ask me :D

Wow, you've got alot of 'vintage' stuff there (I mean it in a cool way) - CRT, Starcraft book, 15 lb 3" tall notebook.. I almost thought the coreless phone was a 10 year old Nokia cell ;)
 
lol its just for storage (yugioh tin)

well im saving my money for parts, my friend may be able to hook me up with some new parts and/or a better case

starcrafts still fun (that is untill #2 comes along =D)
 
I have to confess that the following images aren't new but I don't think I've posted yet in the 2008 workstations section :) I do plan on updating a few things notably my powerbook to one of the new macbook pros; it's currently a 17" but I'll probably get a 15" because I hardly ever use the screen and I NEVER take the powerbook anywhere...it's been sitting on that icurve since I got it. I'm also looking at upgrading that Shuttle SB81P which is over 4 years old now, that's right, I said 4...problem is I'm not satisfied with the newer shuttles and I can't find any other solution that will fit my setup. Oh, and I might get an iPhone now that Rogers has announced it's finally bringing it to the Canadian market this year (all depending on their plan choices of course). Anywho, hope you like my room :)

Here's my setup.

Powerbook > Dell 2407WFP-HC via VGA (w/ VGA to DVI adapter)
Shuttle > Dell 2407WFP-HC via DVI (connected using DVI to HDMI cable through HDMI Switch)
PS3 > Dell 2407WFP-HC via DVI (connected using HDMI to HDMI cable through HDMI Switch
HDMI 4-in-1 Switch > Dell 2407WFP-HC via DVI (connected using HDMI to VGA cable)

Logitech MX Duo setup using KVM Switch to switch between Mac and PC.

Also, logitech Z-5500 speakers are setup in 5.1 fashion with rear speakers setup at ceiling corners. PS3 audio is setup through optical audio.

4 external Lacie Porsche drives (500GB each). 2 for powerbook, 2 for Shuttle.

Woot for D. Dude, how on earth did you straighten out that tubing and attach it to your wall? I'm having huge problems with that lol.
 
Here's my current setup, you can see the details in my sig. The speakers are lower end Infinity shelves (the floor towers are in my living room). The amp reciever isn't anything special but it works out fine. You can see my new 500gb drive sitting there waiting for me to reinstall Windows but I haven't gotten around to it yet. Hopefully I'll be getting a new case soon so I'll post up some inside pics when that happens.

dariuslatamus: What desk is that?
Click to expand...

It's custom built. I have a friend in the furniture business who had large slabs of desk tops like this and I i saw this one and just loved the finish on it. The legs on the other hand are actually from IKEA. They're the simple twist cyclinder types.

They're actually mounted on wood with a matte finish. Paper is so passé :)

Really nice setup man!


TooBooKoo, I want that desk. I went and got all the parts on IKEA.com or w/e, and went to checkout...shipping was $120!!! The closest store is in Georgia also... :(


I really love seeing peoples setups, just to see how I could improve mine and such.

What kind of mic is that and how are you hooking it into your system? Are you a podcaster?

some people on this forum need to learn how to read the EXIF data. It takes what, 3 seconds to download and then 3 more to right click and read it?

You know, I may know that perfectly well. But we have people on this forum who have NO idea what EXIF data is. People are free to ask questions of whatever kind, regardless of how mundane and simple it may sound to you. Don't discourage them to ask , if it doesn't effect you don't post. Trolling is not appreciated.

thus the reason I said "need to learn" - I'm all for answering questions. I was a noob once after all. Didn't really mean to sound like a troll. Sorry all.

However, you'd think that people would pick up on it, this isn't the first time someone has been told about EXIF data, even in this thread. :p

My new epic workstation!!! Got the desk tonight at Big Lots for $100....it is awesome. Very sturdy and hell of a lot of room. The keyboard pullout is a bit wobbly, but I could care less....desk is awesome!



 
Haha thats not my wallpaper. That is my PS3, and GTA4 was in the drive, and that is the image that pops up. My PC wallpaper (and my Ps3 wallpaper) are of the sexy Megan Fox!
 
Guitarrasdeamor,

What is that to the left of your ps3 and how is your ps3 connected to your lcd?
 
To the left of my PS3 is my alarm clock...nothing special lol.

Also, it is hooked to my LCD via HDMI cable, and audio through red/white.
