Show us your workstations!


Recommended Posts

Here's my workstation setup. I like large desk surfaces, so I just used a 10' countertop slab from Home Depot. :blush: The "monitor" is a 32-inch 1080p Sharp TV, which works surprisingly well for both games and work (I'm an aging Software Engineer, so the larger fonts in Visual Studio on a 32" screen are wonderful). :laugh:

It's a bit of a mess compared to other setups here, but it gets the job done. LOL. I could probably use a KVM and better cable management, too.

No offense intended but that wallpaper looks like it was designed for a 7 year old. So does the bedspread. If you're that young, please don't take offense. But if you're older than that, hello Jeffrey Dahmer!

Nice range of PCs, though!

Yeah, I know. The room was designed when I was probably about 10, and now I'm 22. I've been meaning to redo it for a while now, but haven't gotten around to it.

calendar is a bit off.

Like the above, I haven't gotten around to getting a new one yet, and I probably won't. Heh.

The only thing I can imagine is that it'd be a hell to wake up in such room with a hangover.

I have that same keyboard and I do game with it :p

As do I :p

that's the wired version right? Do you play FPS's? If you do, did you just change the "W" key from being move forward because when I had the wired version for all of one day, the keyboard wouldn't do W + Shift + Space Bar at the same time. It's a known defect with those things. So in FPS', no running and jumping until you change the controls. I bought the wireless version which doesn't have that problem.

Chucked in a 3rd screen, got the Macbook hooked up to the 1st display. My main windows box on the 2nd monitor and a old machine running Ubuntu 11.04 as a web server and to view Facebook...

All controlled through one keyboard and mouse using Synergy, SynergyKM (Mac), QSynergy (Windows) and Quick Synergy (Ubuntu). Setting up and using TeamViewer, TightVNC, XAMPP and Hamachi to communicate these 3 machines with a friend to develop some PHP has been a challenge, but a fun one nonetheless :)

I really hate wireless keyboards. The only use for them are HTPCs. I hate having batteries to mess with. LOL.

Any serious gamer would stay wired... totally not cool to change your batteries in the middle of a fragfest or an epic raid on a big monster in an MMO.... happened to me once!!!!!

I want one of those awesome Logitech ones with the LCD screen on them.

I have an HP media center pc that needs the KB batteries replaced once a week. LOL. I had a MS KB that was the same.

I used the MS KB when I played WoW back in nov 2009. had to replace them in the middle of a huge raid.... not cool LOL.

it's worse when it happened in a much harder MMO called tibia (old school snes styled one) and I died and lost a lot of loot!

but yeah I really want that awesome logitech KB though still.

I've heard more people with that same issue. There are no issues like that on my side when I play FPS's. I did have issues with the wireless version though. Logitech sent me the wired version as a fix as I didn't want to have a 2nd wireless version which could have the same issues.

    • Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is getting a simultaneous release across PC and all consoles by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Square Enix showed up to the Summer Game Fest presentation today with multiple trailers showing off its next chapter in the Final Fantasy VII Remake saga. The final chapter of this trilogy now has an official name too, with it being dubbed Final Fantasy VII Revelation, following up Final Fantasy VII Remake and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth from recent years. Vincent Valentine, Cid, Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and more showed up in the trailers as they battle against enemies, or 'Weapons,' from the final chapter. "As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, the final battle against Sephiroth begins," says the trailer description. "A meteor mars the sky, monstrous planetary guardians wreak havoc across the globe, and the fires of war rage. Now, Cloud and his companions must stand against this chaos to not only decide the planet's fate, but bring a legendary conflict to its conclusion." Following the reveal trailer, the show also dropped some gameplay footage that shows off a new way to travel across the open world using the Highwind airship. Players will be able to swap characters on during battles, use tactical mode to synchronize with allies, and summon their entities. Cid Highwind and Vincent Valentine are joining the party this time too. “FINAL FANTASY VII, first released in 1997, has been beloved by fans for many years and has since become a “legend” in its own right," added producer Yoshinori Kitase. "The FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series that began in 2020 with everyone’s passionate support is finally reaching its climactic finale with FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION. The story’s final destination represents my emotions spanning thirty years working on this title" One of the biggest revelations of this announcement, however, was the multiplatform release confirmation from the get-go. Square Enix will be releasing Final Fantasy VII Revelation across PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 in Spring 2027 without any timed exclusivity programs.
    • Hello, Having a simple utility to allow Microsoft's customers to configure the context menu, with a few options like showing the current menu, showing a proposed menu/alternate configurations, loading and saving the settings, and a "reset to default" option would have solved this. Let Microsoft provide a recommended default look-and-feel, maybe a couple alternative configurations, like a basic/simplified version of that, and a more advanced version for that, and that would have been very well-received, I think. Microsoft could even had offered a library of different configurations, similar to what they have done in the past for Windows Media Player skins, Themes, and desktop wallpaper. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • No Steam release. It's gonna fail on PC. Even an Epic Online engineer said that people go there for the free stuff and then immediately go back to Steam.
    • Nice. Admittedly, his other games never interested me, but this seems pretty cool.
    • It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.
