Just looking at that workplace makes me wanna go to FermiLab. Sadly, the only laptop there is not a thinkpad.

There is a Dell on the table, near the bottom-mid of the pic.

Sorry man, I'm really :beer: up (literally). It was very visible when you pointed it out. Thanks.

I have to admit that I also have one of the miraculous Magic 8-Balls shown in the center of the photo between the two LCDs.

It's the most important tool an IT manager can have at hand.

I'm thinking this might have been taken with a panorama camera, the blurred areas are where movement was done, the lens rotates across the field of view??

EDIT: maybe not, I can see splice areas in at least 3 sections.
