Pictures of Indie Offices

To carry on the spirit of today's Dev Snapshot, we'd all like to see what your "offices" look like. Mine definitely fits in the category of "office" rather than office. There are actually two companies at work here... my own and my roommate's company (which simply does schoolwork). This is a snapshot of a near-climax in messiness. I'll probably whittle those piles down somewhat soon, but who knows.

My main workstations are a Win2k pc with Cygwin/Xwin client running remote Xwindows sessions to my Linux box, and a PowerBook. Both are on a KVM, so all three platforms are accessible from one location (very convenient):

The network rack with servers, a printer in the bottom, and guitar equipment in the top (also a few test pcs on the floor and a cool touch sensitive white board on the wall):

More guitar equipment (from the 'good old days'):

My wife and I do a lot of work from home, so believe it or not most of this stuff is necessary (ok - maybe not the guitar equipment :) ). When we bought the house our decision was based on it having a garage, fireplace, 1 bedroom, and 2 extra rooms for offices - our realtor thought we were nuts.

...please excuse my HTML stumblings...I'm trying to assemble a homepage...yikes!
Whoops, actually looks like only Engine II, and this is the daylight shot. Also looks like some 1st Person modelling for www.planetunreal.com/unrealbadlands/ going on in the monitor...hee-hee, that was fun. It should look/work natural in TGE's environment!
@Ken F.: nice gear, wish I still had my Fluke...and the other tools in my pack someone walked off with...I still managed to keep my Hakko solder station...:) That thing is kinda sweet.
