Haha, yea it needs cleaning badly :p

Also why is the x4 "stupid"? It's a brilliant keyboard! Typing is very nice, and the backlit keys are great when in the dark!

Is it necessary to have so many computers, tablets, and smart phones?

When you build apps and other crap for all platforms I would say yes.. I don't even have quite a few I need to get. I need to get Galaxy Tab, I need to get iPhone 4S and I need to get Galaxy Nexus

Anyone else getting a kick out of the number of high dollar unshielded speakers sitting right next to high dollar computer systems slowly demagnetizing (or re-magnetizing depending on how you look at it) their hard drives?

The latest change to my desk involves the addition of a monitor stand. I think it was the best purchase I have made in a while as it really freed up the desk for usage. Not sure if I should post the old setup to gauge the change, but I'll do so hoping it doesn't clutter the post.

    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      Any decent ITSM will A) have a web form that allows a user to raise a ticket, if you're writing an email you can write a ticket. B) Monitor a mailbox and auto-generate tickets based on inbound mails for those users that really can't get their heads around the concept that if you have an issue you go to support.mycompany.com and fill in the box. From your description you're having users email the desk, and then having a human read each one and manually raise a ticket on behalf of the user.
