Mitch has converted his attic into an office where he can telecommute from. Highlights of this setup include a mac pro loaded with storage, 180 degrees of monitors and a Kinesis freestyle keyboard. Check out his faq site where he showcases the hardware used, and his build process. In case you missed the last week. I have covered 4 other workspaces that are all worth a look. Here’s a list of them below. I just got back from a used bookstore, and had to take a picture of this sign. “Christian Fiction” another redundancy fail…
Like many others, Steve Price is also working on building a new setup, as seen here on his blog. Check Back tomorrow for #1. The winner really deserves this, as it is by far the best setup that I have ever seen. I just spotted the original super soaker for sale at Zellers for $19.97. I was pretty tempted to buy one right then and there, as this brings back lots of childhood memories. It looks like this updated version is pretty much unchanged from the original, except for the redesigned water reservoir.
He is in the process of building a new setup right now; it is being documented on his Flickr stream. His new setup looks immense, with at least 15 monitors. It looks like it could be the command center for NASA. In an ideal world, this is what my room would look like. I am just a few years away from collecting that much computing equipment. Check back tomorrow for #2.
Check back here tomorrow for #3. Today’s featured workspaces is that of the famous blogger Chris Pirillo. He has a webcam pointing at this desk 24/7, so you can always check up to see if he’s working. He’ll often have interesting things to say to the camera, so it’s worth the watch. His workspace features quite a bit for a geek to lust over. The first thing one notices are the 2 enormous 30″ Dell displays that provide him with ample screen real estate. His dual monitors are powered by a mac pro. This photo above is out of date, as it still shows Chris running Vista. Above his desk, there are a bunch of flashing coloured lights that actually do serve a purpose. They are 6 TIX LEDs clocks. Although Chris is not the first person in the world to use 30″ displays in a dual monitor setup, he was one of the first to popularize it, and make them seem non-excessive to the non-geeks. Check back tomorrow for #4, and check out Chris’s Live Stream now. |
