What's Your Setup

[Cheese]

I'm just wondering how you have your computer actually set up...

My computer is in one corner of my bedroom, I sit in a comfy armchair a little too far from the screen for my eye's comfort. I have a foot-rest for me feet and a side table for my mouse to sit...

So I'm just curious how other people actually sit at their computers for optium comfort.

[Afronaut]

This is Teh Shit.

Folks,

Enjoy.

I'd tell you, but I don't think anybody is really that interested.

[Cheese]

well okay, maybe not the most stimulating convo... :lol: But I'm honestly interested in how people actually approach their internet access...I mean, some of us are at our computers an awful lot... ;)




edit:@GS: :huh: huh

[uNz[i]]

Alright then, just to sate your curiosity... :D

My PC is in the living room so I can surf the net and watch TV.

I have a traditional computer desk and a high back reclinable directors chair.
To the left of the desk is an armless modular seat. I rest my feet upon this seat while reclining in my posh chair when sitting upright becomes uncomfortable.

@uNz[i] thanks :D I think we might agree that a foot rest is an important thing when being on your computer for any length of time...


@neattairoski We have a pretty similar set up except i have less speakers... B)

Doesnt your ass hurt from that chair man ?

[uNz[i]]

It does look a tad unforgiving.

[clocker]

That's why I'm so crotchety all the time.

Blank?

Closer to 200 really.

I'm down to about 75 blanks, but that's OK cause I'm getting a DVD burner from Santa.

[clocker]

I was a very good boy this year.
Plus, I'm buying it myself.

Santa will undoubtably bring me a tie or something.....

[camille]

It's placed inside the attic, so I can concentrate.

Mine's something like that.

I also have one of those computer screens against the brightness. ;)

[Snee]

I got a fairly compact setup, everything I use is on a 1.5x1.5 metre surface, speakers, computer, monitor, scanner and so on. I've actually got it in a hallway at the mo', since it didn't fit in the adjacent room, where I sleep.

There is some wiring going into my room though, usually there's a tv hooked up to my comp, but I fried my old one when doing some modifications, and haven't hooked up my new one yet, which is currently only hooked up to my PS2 and a VCR, further on in the same hallway, as I haven't carried into my room yet.

Also to my left, there's a older comp, or rather about 1.5 older comps on the floor, with monitor and all, which I am not currently using.

Oh yeah, I have the pedals from my game-steering-wheel as a footrest.

Clocker - your PC look quite fanny.

I have a tower PC which is underneath a normal desk (not a PC desk). I have a recliner / swivel high back chair which sits to the side of the desk. So I do not sit with my legs under the desk, instead they are beside it.

I have one of those rollerball optical mice type things, you operate the ball with your thumb and the four buttons are programmable. The scroll wheel in the middle can also operate as a button. If I just say MS Trackball Optical is that simpler. That sits on top of the Tower so my hand naturally just rests on it.

This way I have the monitor at eye level and just to my right. Straight ahead I have the television, slightly below eye level. So I can easily use both at the same time. The TV has Video / DVD / and a cable box attached to it.

I have many hundreds of CDs filled with music, movies, programmes etc. However I recently got a DVD burner (the Pioneer and it is fab) and am starting to use that more. This really isn&#39;t a problem storage wise, as the room is only used for the PC / TV anyway.

[lynx]

Well, you don&#39;t need a picture of my setup.

Just imagine Linda&#39;s with the pc hidden behind the left hand upright of the desk, and the printer up top. Had to do a little mod to allow air out the back though. My blank cd&#39;s are even in the same place. :D

Do you intend getting a PC any time soon :blink:

[Busyman]

Downstairs bedroom-
Have my computer desk slightly off the middle of one wall with a 21" monitor.
Directly across the room on the other wall is a futon where I sometimes lay there and watch stuff I&#39;ve downloaded. I sometimes will sleep there (I got an alarm there just in case). There&#39;s a TV to the left of the computer desk and my keyboards and drum machines to the right.
I&#39;ve got TONS of comics in boxes in each corner of the room.

Upstairs guest room-
I&#39;ve got a couple bookcases and my computer on a desk "similiar" to this:
http://www.staples.com/images/products/catalog/products/430584_std.jpgI couldn&#39;t find a pic for the exact desk.

I ran jacks all through the house that go back to a patch panel and router downstairs in the utility room.

There&#39;s no computer in my bedroom. I do plug my laptop into the network there sometimes when I&#39;m in bed though.

I cant wait to see that desk on the Antiques Road Show. " I have a feeling that these legs have been added at a later date".

I was noticing how everything was more or less in the same place as mine.

Even the post-it notes on the cupboard door. I was trying to see if they had the same reminders as me, but the bottle distracted me. :P
