Following Joshua and Christian here comes the photo of what was my development setup 🙂
Joshua you were very evil to start this while I’m in the middle of restructuring my office 🙂 As for what I’m using right now, it is very similar to what I posted already although there is a stair in the middle of the room, and raw cables all around.
There actually was another very messy desk on the right, which is the one I’m using now. The external hard disk I use mostly for the laptop although it’s a nice way to backup stuff for the workstation too if I need to.
I’m a huge fan of the new aluminum keyboards from Apple, they are one of the best kind of keyboards I tried in the past few years. I’m now using two of them, one for the laptop and one for workstation (although the photo only shows one).
On the hidden desk there were a scanner (EPSON Perfection 2580) and an Onkyo A/V Receiver which is the central part of my audio subsystem 🙂 I really should find a way to put the speakers on the ceiling when I’m done with the new furniture, though, as I’m not sure if I’ll have enough space (I’m going to try keeping just one desk). I’m afraid they aren’t standard though :/
Hehe I am using the same keyboard right now at my brother’s PC. Pretty neat.
Does each monitor have its own X session?
Nope, the one on the right did. Right now I detached the second PCI card until I get the new box, when I have that I’ll consider re-adding it.I’ll have to post photos of the new setup too.
