Desk Photo 2018

New apartment to cut down on my commute and new computer to take advantage of my 10 GbE home network and server. Upgraded from a Mac Pro to the new iMac Pro! 10 core Xeon + 4 TiB SSD + 128 GiB RAM - $3,000 employee discount = still a lot of money.

I’ve decided to get rid of my rack cabinet in my living room, so I started by moving my Mac Pro onto my desk and running ethernet cables through the wall. Also with my larger IKEA bed I had to rotate my desk 90 degrees to make everything fit.

I shamefully upgraded from my custom built dual core AMD FX-60 computer to a quad core Intel Core2 Dell computer I borrowed from work. I’ve had that FX-60 for too long and it was showing its age. Also that KVM was so horrible.

Desk Photo 2005: Work @ TISD

This was right before I left my first job for Austin. I loved that Dell Latitude C400 laptop (my first laptop) that I bought on eBay. I think it was a Pentium 3 866 MHz. And that’s a brownie.

Got my kickass APC SUA1500 UPS! Weeks after getting it the house had a serious electrical problem and caused a brownout on my computer’s circuit. It would have been destroyed if it weren’t for my UPS. I also dabbled in the world of iptables and IP masquerading with my Linux router on a floppy.
