Workstation Geekdom

2005 Computer Setup. Two computers power the 9 displays. The laptop ran Windows XP and the desktop ran FreeBSD. Synergy allows the use of one mouse and keyboard to control input devices on both machines via the network. (Yes, I used an ssh tunnel for the synergy connection). The slow draw rate on the lower monitors caused me to later consolidate them into 2 larger monitors powered by one graphics card instead of the 3 cards used here.

Young Web Enthusiast’s Desk

Hey,

My name is Keith. I’m a teenage student trying to break into the web design/development business.

Of course, people say that macs are necissary to being a good web designer. Tell that to my £35 PowerMac G4 in the other room.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, Microsoft expression 3, Snagit 9, Camtasia Studio 6 and other stuff.

-Keith.

Photographer Setup

Hi all,
My name is Eric, I am photographer based in Montreal, so I use my setup for photo editing, and sometimes for gaming.
I have a 22U rackmount unit which contains my linux webserver, routers and switches and my Denon 7.1 DTS receiver.
The workstation I use for photo editing is a Quad core 3GHz, 4GB RAM, 10K RPM hard drives for OS and scratch disk, and a raid 5 (4 x 500GB) for photos.
I also use an Epson Photo flatbed scanner to handle my negatives which are archived in the left library.
I read photography books in my couch on the right.

Home Office

I’m Alex, and I am a 16 year old web designer and blogger.
