What does your workstation look like?

Most of us are in front of computers while reading this, so use your smart phone and snap a photo of your setup. Home setup is coo too.

I have a dual monitor setup at work with windows 7 (ugh) and intel i5.

Anybody have macs at work? Interesting desktop wallpapers?

I used to have my car as my background, but I felt co-workers thought I was some little kid with "race cars" on my background.

Windows XP was the best OS, for PC (IMO). Windows 7 is always udpating, and crashing, and timing out and blah blah blah. Macs are just so much more pretty and stable...and expensive.

Not that windows 7 is terrible, but Mac is just better. Not that a G37 IPL is terrible just a 335i is better.

Just the TV on the wall, use a wireless keyboard and mouse so it really just looks like a room with a couch table and TV.

the pretty colors do alot more than i thought. meh, windows has NEVER failed me. i maintain my computers regularly... its not rocket science, it does all the work for you in W7. Disk defrag, disk cleanup, and your good to go. have updates install in the AM hours so it never affects you. Ive dealt with macs and will forever claim them as my life long enemy.

will never buy any mac or apple product for as long as i live. not even as a gift for anyone, i dont promote that shit. Microsoft all day

as far as setup's go, i usually run dual 24" dell 2407 screens, logitech g7 gaming mouse, saiteck backlit keyboard.

True dat. As far as your question with windows 7 and Procede:


Windows 7/Vista communication issues
by vishnut_vadmin » Mon Jul 12, 2010 6:26 pm

Courtesy of Microsoft, some users have experienced random laptop communication issues when running Windows 7 or Vista operating systems. This is because the new 64bit operating systems have a tendency to drop comm ports for no apparent reason. To address that, please follow this simple guide posted here (courtesy of a very helpful customer):

single background for 2 monitors is a must...2 screens w/ the same background feels 'cheap' in comparison

I didn't want to get all technical, so I just said "pretty". I think Mr. Gates would be proud of you claiming his company like a gang!

But you sound a lil defensive, Y U JELLY? JK!
