This is an old pic from 2003. Three of the computers in this picture have been replaced. There are 3 computers not pictured in this pic. Currently I have 7 computers, 2 of which not up and running.

I like the P. Chem book holding up your monitor, that's about as much use as I'd get out of my own book from that class these days.

My wife and I just moved into our first house, so the office looks rough, and I don't even have a proper computer desk. By the time I get one, this thread will be history.

Take a look at my photo album and I will explain each picture:
http://new.photos.yahoo.com/mowestusa/a ... 4774#page1

Home1: Cabinate has two computers.
Black and Silver: AMD Sempron 2800 64 Everex SFF. It has an upgraded Nvida low profile card, and a 1256megs of ram. It dual boots WinXP and Ubuntu. However, it has not booted WinXP since the first week it was up and running. This is the machine used by the whole family for email, websurfing and whatever I want to do on it.

Dell Box: Celeron 500 with 64megs of ram. It has NetBSD installed, no gui, there so I can gradually learn how to use and administer an NetBSD box during my hobby time.

Top of the cabinate is a WRT54G version 4.0 with DD-WRT firmware installed and hooked to a Cantenna pointed across the street at my office.

Home2: Just a close up of two computers at home.

Office1: Desktop Pentium 500 with 320megs of ram and a 120gig hard drive. This computer dual boots Ubuntu and Windows 2000, but Windows 2000 is only used when I want to use the scanner because there is no support for it under Linux. This computer stays on most of the time so I can save files to it, serves as the backup for all other network computers. It also does all of the bashpodder work, and bittorrent needs that I have. You see the 2nd WRT54G version 4 with stock Linksys firmware installed making the connection with my home computers onto the same network with the Cantenna.

Office2: Recording Studio Computer and Equipment. I record a weekly radio program that is played on a local radio station with this equipment, then it gets edited by someone else. Unfortunately, for ease of use we have WinXP with Cool Edit as our software installed on this computer.

Office3: This is the graveyard, or better put, "machines not in use". The first is a Digital Server 5305 with a 533 Alpha and 3 full bays of SCSI drives with 4 open. This machine works fine, but I don't have it up and running because it has no OS, that is why I'm learning NetBSD which seems to have the best support for Alphas.

One in the middle is a Pentium 133, my first computer after my Amiga 2000. It works fine, has Win95 installed with 48megs of ram, but I just don't have a use for it. It used to run my scanner.

One on the far right. AMD 1000 with 256megs of RAM. It is displaying strange motherboard failures. I have not wanted to spend any money in a new motherboard for this computer, so there it sits. Used to serve as my main Office desktop.

Well, this is long enough. You can look at the parts pics too. I got these along with a box of power cords for a $1 at a local garage sale. I figured it never hurts to have extra cords laying around. The NIC has this strange little cable coming off of it which I have never seen before, I don't know what you use that for. The ISA card is a IDE controler I believe, I have no idea if it would work with Linux, and I have no idea what kind of cable you blug into the back. Along the top it seems to have a regular IDE channel and a floppy connector. Then the null modem cables are strange because they have male ends. I don't know what you would do with male ended cables when plugging into mail ended serial ports. Then there were some strage flat ethernet cables. I imagine these are not Cat 5e, and I have no idea what you use the one with the four separate connectors for.

Hope you enjoy.
