Well I moved my home office into a different room in my house, and I like the new room so far. Its much more cozy.
My sweet cable management (I just did this today and I'm happy about it)

That chair looks really comfortable!
Yep, I could do with one of those!
IKEA FTW!

Yep
I just came back with new stuff form there too. (The light and the 2 storage bins)
yea.. but thats not something people know to look for.. its kinda funny when poeple freak out at the new person who asks.. when the whole problem could be solved by NOT POSTING your setup with the screen saver active. ugh..
I always love seeing pics of your setup. THe MP with the ACD, matching speakers, and matching LaCie looks real nice!
Latest setup, finally close to where I want it:
1.) Dell Mini 9 Hackintosh: 1.6 GHz Intel Atom CPU, Mac OS X Leopard, 32GB HD, 2GB RAM, 8.9" Display
2.) 8-Core Mac Pro: 2 x 2.8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon CPU, 16GB RAM, 3TB HD, 30" Dell Display, Medium Intuos4 Wacom Pad
3.) MacBook Pro: 2.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, 4GB RAM, 160GB HD, 15" Display
How are you liking the 3007WFP? I just ordered a 2709W a couple days ago. Very excited.
How do you like your Intuos 4? Is it worth it to replace my Intuos 3 and its pens?
Updated the setup a bit.
Old ...
Dell Optiplex running Vista with 2 17" acers, work laptop hooked up to Acer H233H, and MBA sharing the screen. Which is the first picture.
New!
Dell XPS Studio i7 920 with 8 GB ram, dual Acer H233H hooked up to it.
Managing screens using Ultramon, so the one on the left will go to one screen, and I can use the work laptop or MBA with the second monitor.
Using synergy across all machines with a custom built configuration loader, so I can switch configs on the fly.
Optiplex is now running Windows Server 2008 using Hyper V for 8 VM's. Usually 4 are only on one time. Machine has 1tb drive with 4 GB ram and quad core CPU.
MBA is personal machine. Use it on the road and for most of my work when I am in the living room or something.
Waiting on Geek Squad, to come install two 37" tv's, run wiring from the wall to the PC for HDMI to the TV from the PC, HDMI from the server to one of the Acer monitors, and run speaker cable around the room. One TV for CNN / Headline News / Watching crap while on stupid conference calls. One for Cisco Telepresence. Work paid for one, I am paying for the other.
Laptop is now running CentOS 5 with Asterisk on it and bringing in 4 sip trunks for VoIP, 6 Polycom phones around the house with one Linksys WiFi phone.

Cisco Telepresence, awesome!!!!
Yea, the entire company uses it. Its frikkin amazing. Im not personally a fan of Cisco, I prefer Juniper, but TP is amazing. Every home office is getting the TelePresence 500, basically a home office version of TP. We are a distributed company through out the world, so it makes sense.
Wow, awesome. If you dont mind me asking, what company is it? (Sorry for going a bit off-topic)
