Your computer!?

N4PWJ · 05-04-2007

Thought this would be an interesting thread (slightly geeky i admit).
Where do you surf slkworld from? Take a picture of your computer and place you surf from.
Here is a pic of my desk in work with slkworld running.

, alot of people think that way, either that or prison, we have a ugly brown 7 feet fence surrounding the entire building, no company signs, nothing. I've heard all kinds of comments when I go to lunch, from insane asylum, high profile prison, secret services, area 51 type of building. We have people peek thru the fence to catch a glimpse of what is in the building, my co-workers and I are tempted to make funny faces, and shake as if we are possesed to see their reactions. I can't tell you, if I did I will have to kill you.

At home I have two PCs running XP, one running Vista, one running linux and a laptop also running XP. At work, various different desktops. I'm not taking pictures of all of them

The one I use most now at home is the one I built last month running Vista 64 bit Ultimate. The Dell 30" widescreen 2520x1620 LCD monitor is awesome.

**-1-** · 05-06-2007

I think it's about time to upgrade my desktop computer. It's a 8088 processor, running at 12hz, 64kb ram, with DOS 5 software. I did have one like that about 20 years ago. My first computer was a NEW Apple IIe back in 1981. I've spent a ton, always upgrading. I currently use a HP laptop with Windows Vista. I hardly use my desktop and will only upgrade to a newer laptop as better systems come out. Chances are, I'll never buy another desktop system.

I'm in the middle of scanning in slides and it really isn't usually this messy, okay

My screen picture has a picture of a picture of a picture

**DesignoSLK** · 05-06-2007

I spend most of my SLKWorld time surfing from work, but I do some at home after the wife goes to bed and occasionaly throughout the day when I'm off.

This is work:

This is home:

The home setup is very temporary, I normally have a 17" flatscreen atop a docking station...still trying to get adjusted to the move.

Is the Dell still the best 30" ?

I'll be getting something similar soon and noticed a few people mentioning the apple is a good screen. Need to read up on it alot yet.
