Did you use a potato to take that?

Here is mine. Ikea desk and chair. Tidy, because I'm a clean freak and can't be dealing with messy desks.

I'm jealous of how tidy you are.

That's uncanny, like a Magritte painting.

There are a few things hidden behind the Macbook, but not much and there are pictures hung up around the room, just not behind my monitors

Don't be silly.

It was clearly a lemon.

I'm transitioning to pipe-smoking and a side effect is less ash. Which is great. Keyboards last me more than 2 weeks.

It's a really nice keyboard though. With Alps switches. Which are fucking lovely.

I'm liking your wall art there. :)

Why the fire extinguisher though?

I didn't know that was a thing, so just been reading up on it.

How've you found it, and have you got any finished pictures?

I imagine, and this might be completely wrong, that it's used for extinguishing fires.

(I also imagine it's entirely possible that he nicked it from a pub, and it expired in 2003.)

But there's not a fire there, so completely surplus to requirements.

Here's mine. Helps that I already have my own office/man-cave and have been working from home for several years already.

That makes me feel ashamed.  :-@

That just shows it's working.

According to the cinema, that's a myth, the real purpose is that it is a handy weapon for clubbing people over the head.

One advantage of using the same screen for work and home use is that it gave me justification for splurging on a 30" main monitor last year. A KVM switches the screen, keyboard and mouse over to my docking station for when I'm working.

I love my usb kvm though I don't put video through it, I switch the display between the hdmi & dvi inputs (toying with the idea of adding audio to it, so I can use my one good set of headphones on both rigs). Multiple displays give me whiplash.

Man, you guys need to move countries a couple of times. That soon sorts out how much stuff you have lieing around. Most of what I own would fit into a few boxes*.

* excluding furniture, obv.

Wait a sec, the middle one is a 30"?
