Here's some photos of my systems before last weekend. I have rearranged, but don't have the shots yet. Every once in a while I need a little stress relief so I disconnect all my computers and wires and electrical outlets and move them to the other side of the room, rearrange the furniture and reconnect everything. Usually takes a couple of days.

itsjustme,

What's with the funny straps around everything? Like around the towers and also around the router and modem and stuff?

Is your house on an airplane or something ?

Stability.

The modem and switch are so light weight that the cables in the back make them stand up off the front feet. Those tiny bungees keep them sitting there in place.

The bungee cords around the towers is to keep the legs of the shelf unit supported against the towers since another shelf is supposed to be in there giving support to the whole unit.

hehe - Actually, I live in a large garage with a cement floor.

Hey, how come nobody is showing us their setups?

I've rearranged again. Here's how it looks now.

And this is where it all is.

And, no, I'm not writing a manifesto.

Don't have a digital camera?! Get one!

I don't have one either. Can't afford it. I'm using my Logitech zoom webcam and the ImageStudio software that came with it over on my W2K machine. A digital camera would certainly be nicer.

I saw a thread of desktop setups somewhere. Might have been over on justlinux.
