The Computer Room/Office

Posted:  12/23/99

  Here are the photos I promised of the clutter office/computer room at Wakeolda:

The infamous closet

This closet has been mentioned many times before, not so much on my pages, but on the pages at Triad Technology Group.  If you look close enough you'll find some 386sx motherboards and well as a host of paddle cards with such useful items as parallel and serial ports. Remember those jewels.  I have another huge box of jump that I have removed from this closet that I either need to throw away, post on an eBay auction or give away is someone would take it off my hands.

The inside of the cluttered computer office

This shot is taken from standing in the door.  The monitor on the left hand side is connected to the new IBM IntelliStation and is more-less the main work area. That's where I check Quicken every night to remind myself that we have no funds...they've all been spent on computer equipment.

Another crowded desk

This desk contain the monitors and keyboard for several machines.   The monitor on the left splits time between Barney and Fred while the screen on the right is dedicated to BamBam.  Fred is my Win NT Server and Barney is the new box that will eventually be the home for Linux.  BamBam is a Win98 machine, I think.

More Junk

Typical of any computer room is a junk corner. Why am I saving all of those PC Magazines. I think my holiday project will be to get rid of some of the these magazines.  I have full years of PC Mag dating to, should I say it, 1992

Another shot of of the main corner

I moved the chair out of the way for this shot.  On the right is Rubble, the IBM IntelliStation and on the left is Wilma.  Wilma is a Win98 box that hangs every time I reboot and is the machine that I use to update the Wakeolda web pages.
