Show us your workstations!

My new workstation at work. It's a G5 Hackintosh running OSX and Win7. We're going to be adding a couple more OSX machines in our marketing dept. and I wanted to be able to use OSX fluently.

Sorry for the quality, taken with my HTC Hero's camera!

Wow, those cables look like a fire hazard and a trip hazard.

Haha looks like a real IT department if you ask me. I need a job like you I long for one. I work in IT but need something settled like you seem, Desktop Engineer may I ask?

I wish... IT Manager for an automotive dealer group. It's a job where you're a jack of all trades attempting to be the master of all those trades. I manage the phone system (ancient avaya box), 8 Servers (7 winos, 1 Linux), handle the tape based backups, and i'm a pc support desk person. All those at the same time, plus whatever else management wants to add to the list. I'm told i'm invaluable, but based on my paychecks my value is about $13.00 an hour. haha.

Here's a shot of my new PC case :D Finished the build 30 minutes ago.

Sorry for the low quality. I quickly made the shot with my phone :)

I'm pretty happy with this case so far. It has great cable management which was missing from my previous case. The airflow is also pretty great (Y) It also contains my new EVGA GTX 460 :D After sending my XFX GTX 260 back for repairs, XFX decided to return the card telling the store where I bought it that there was no fault in the card. The store sent it back again only to get it back from XFX with the same message. So then the store decided to send me a replacement card, which turned out to be the EVGA GTX 460 :D

    • Nvidia is your issue more so than linux itself. I did used it for a while with an old 1060 3gb, but using propietary drivers was kind of messy.

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
