If he has a WiFi access card, he can mooch internet from the nearest building, most likely. Give it a good 24 hours of packet sniffing, if they have a password.

Thats messy? Brandon, come on now you need more cables strewn about the room and more papers laying around, thats really quite neat. And as Jay H 237 said

Where's the UPS? whole house maybe?

Where are the piles of Cd roms (or dvd roms) for writing cds, and how much do the headphones cost (pounds or dollars)

UPS: Never had one, probably should, but never got around to buying one.

CD-R: There's a spindle just out of view, down in the bottom left, next to the grey & black flash light.

Headphones: They are an old pair of RCA's that cost no more than $25 USD, on sale at buy.com.

After seeing your room brandon please please don't tell me that one of those computers edits CD =)

Why are the computers open like that and why are they on a rug...... I guess static electricity don't bother your computers that much =) and whats with the bit monitors i thought you would have an LCD screen or something like a flap panel by now....



In comparison to brandons desk and mine:
1- mine is wider
2- " " shorter
3- " " roomier
4- " " cluttered with papers and empty glasses / bottles of pepsi etc
5- my wiring mess is hidden behind my desk

Ill post a pic of mine when i get a chance right now i gotta go eat something =) and leave it on my officially considered my lazy desk

Yep, the one under the desk on the left is my main workstation.

easy access, ventilation, laziness?

because i like my desk to be cluttered with stuff other than my tower(s). if my computers die from static electricity, that'd probably be a blessing. i need a vacation.

It's almost time for an update.

Unfortunately, the original picture is no longer linked, but it was the one below (according to archive.org).

That's true :D

Haha. Brandon's desk is cleaner than mine! I've got 3 servers, mobos without even cases, 4 hdds strewn about, maybe a couple SSDs, a 72 port gbp switch (I dont know where that came from), 4 routers, a modem (10 yrs old), 2 lappies, a broken ipod, many hdd magnets to keep behind ma phone. Also, let me not forget to add those $10 logitech speakers which I have modded to sound like Bose :D

Did I forget to say that this was before :D? Anyways, I got rid of most of this stuff, now leaving me with a desk on which I can actually do homework. :(

Lol's for everyone, and maybe you weren't like me, coding on christmas eve :D
BTW, have you Linux fans tried SuperTuxCart? : D (increase the smiley limit to 6)

And Joe, that's like me when it comes to high voltages (60kV or higher)
