ThePete's Rig (My Computer Desk)


It's sort of a point of pride for tech-heads that we have impressive layout schemes for our computer/gadgets. When ever we redesign our layouts, it's time for pictures! Yes, it's sort of like bragging, but really, it's more computer-porn. I'll show me mine if you show me yours, that kind of thing. ^_^

  1. I'm disappointed! At first glance, I thought the b&w TV and the box to the right of it were an ancient suitcase-type portable computer.

  2. Awww, I'm sorry :(

    It's just one huge TV.

    I wouldn't keep a computer like that around--no real functional purpose. A Mac Plus I could at least get on the Internet and even turn into a server, but one of those old Compaqs?? Not a clue what I'd do with one. :\

  3. I was thinking of one of these puppies:

    -- not realizing/remembering that the are-those-floppy-drive-doors were oriented the wrong way.

    I assume an ancient portable C64 would be as useful as a non-portable -- and I think my ex still has an operable C64 (or C128)! He did as of ~6 years ago, anyway. Strictly for playing Mule, of course. :D

  4. This picture is amazing. It made me laugh out loud. My husband's such a techie!!! And that USB lamp is very cute.

  5. Cat: Yeah, those are some oldies but goodies! I have an Atari 2600 I restored from parts ^_^ so I can identify.

    Siskita: Who is this husband? He sounds like a great guy!

    HA!

    Yeah, it is pretty impressive, I have to admit! I got a comment on the Flickrset this picture is in from a friend of mine--she said:

    "Have I ever told you you're my favorite nerd ever? :D"
