So Cool Cube


Enjoy it ,Have fun

cube's phone is a 6230? cingular sells it, its a nokia.

im just to lazy to look up the exact model

Great fun - so let's all try to guess what's going on.

Ok, me first - photo #1 - on the boat just about to sail out of shot - what's the guy in shorts and a blue top trying to say?

forget him, what about dude in the window in the right-most tower?

Wait, wait. Sorry. It's a cat.

There are actually two, which one do you mean? The one with the limp??

The guy with the limp is in the left-most tower!

xmas in hk is crazy. So many ppl on the streets.

ok answer key to the stuff on my desk: :p
- t41
- ibm optical mouse (got it in hk..I think the guy ripped me off..haha)
- ipod mini with belt clip
- shure e2c (lots of shure stuff in hk)
- nokia 6230 (crazy phone! I love the bluetooth..perfect match for the t41)

well, I got the mouse right, but nothing else...

And I even though his laptop was an HP.

I've always considered it ironic that some of the most over the top places I've experienced when it comes to Xmas decorations and celebrations are Japan, Taiwan and Hong Kong.

When we were in China several years ago at Xmas time we could easily see that it was fast becoming a place that would rival all three of the preceding. A promenade through one of the new malls in Beijing, Xian, Chongking, Shanghai, etc. could have just as easily been NY, Paris, Berlin or London.

The mind reels at the thought of the lines for the Boxing Day Sale at the soon to be opened Harrods Beijing!

Here are a couple shots of the homemade "ergo" desk I have in the far corner of the basement. It's not extraorinarily High tech but it is comfortable to set at for hours. The view sucks though.




It was a good use for an old kitchen cabinet.
Now if I could just get a nice banner size shot of HK for a better view.

^ Love the CD "rack" on the cabinet there!

Heh, well it is more function than pretty but it makes quick access to the repair tools cd's I use all the time.
I do a lot of computer repair anymore and I hate digging through stacks of cd's looking for that one disc I need.

Thats what I experience too, but fortunately I dont need to access my software CD's enough to justify doing something different than stacking them in a file box. Of course, the one time I need some certain CD it will take me 30min of going through every single CD until I get to the bottom and there it is (or I passed it and have to repeat the whole thing). I'd adopt your setup in a second if I had the space!

well this just proves that a neat desk is not allways so clean....

hard drive swap and some other plans that keep comming up

My setup at the office:

The Dell is a Precision Workstation 340 with 2 17" (1280x1024) displays and 1 20" (1600x1200) display.

The ThinkPad is a T42p with Dock.

Accessories are a Nextel Blackberry, GN Netcom wireless headset, Cisco 7960 IP Phone, and a Plextor PX-708UF DVDRW.

Let me guess, commodity trader?

Very nice setup.

Ha. Don't have the stomach for that.

IT dude for a builder/banker/etc.

Desktop update, just got the docking unit.

I just started using a spare external LCD from the office here at home. That, in combination with a spare Dell keyboard, makes for less neck cramps on the X40.

I tend, however, to leave the X40 'open' (i.e., screen up) when I'm using it, partially because I get a better wireless signal here in the house, but also because it seems to run cooler.

Those of you in the same situations, or with docks, how do you do it?

my setup, at home. i'm trying to find one of my dorm, but i haven't found one yet, but i'm sure there's one laying around somewhere.



dirty desk this was over the summer i think

Er, if you're ever missing a grey and white sock, it's on your desk.

Yeah, we had to read it for one of my classes in uni. It was ok, people had interesting opinions on it. I think she was a little biased also, it didn't make 100% sense

the x3 ultrabase ... and both computers and ultrabase go thru the lcd

Guest (Blake ?),

What, do you stick one foot in each computer to keep them warm in winter?

My ThinkPad 760E sitting next to the console for my two desktop workstations. The monitor is a brand new Samsung SyncMaster 997DF, the sweetest 19" monitor 200 bucks can buy.


Close-up of the ThinkPad 760E. Did I mention my digital camera stinks?


My two workstations hooked up to the same monitor and keyboard through a switcher. The silver one has an Athlon XP 1800+, 1gb RAM, 40gb HD, WinXP Pro SP2, SoundBlaster Audigy, Radeon 9000 128mb, 16x DVD+-RW Dual layer, 32x CDRW and the beige box is a PII 350, 256mb RAM, 3 scsi hd's, one 2gb, 4gb and one 512mb. It has an 8x cdrw and a Hercules 3D prohet 64mb graphics card.
