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 This photo above is out of date, as it still shows Chris running Vista.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.

Wow – that’s geek luxury – I have a mac pro and a single naff old 17″ display sitting on a kitchen table – how the other half lives!

Must be nice. I was admiring a 30″ screen at Best Buy the other day, but I didn’t even consider getting two of them. Of course, now I wonder why I never thought of getting two before…you know I need them. Oh well, I will keep dreaming while envying your setup (BTW, how do you not have ANY clutter?)
