ilia_kr Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 (edited) That is my home work space for about 3 years now, compact and BORING... Do you guys have any suggestions for imroving it or making it neater? Edited April 30, 2005 by ilia_kr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Adriano1 Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 I think a bigger table with more space for your arms would be nice when you type. As for the boring... I don't know of "exciting" much, but I suppose a few paintings or photographs, and a few plants would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phunni Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 If you think that's not neat - you should see my desk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Adriano1 Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 Or mine, yes. Positively excitiing, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VeeDubb Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 CABLES! It's a conder you can sit at that desk without getting snared and traped like a wild animal in all those loose dangling cables. YOu might invest $1.79 in a baggy of cable ties. Also, and I know this one is out in left field, but seriously, everyine knows that those LCD's are bad for workng on. They cause too much eye strain. Of course, I'm a generous guy so I'll tell you what. You just box that baby up and ship her on over to me, and I'll send you my CRT. It's a heart wrencher letting it go, but I could manage I suppose.

Moreower, they take less space on the table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeeDubb Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 LOL, it was a joke. I was joking around, trying to get you to trade me your really beautiful LCD for my crappy old CRT monitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adolfix Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 I would suggest you more light. A beautiful and colorful lamp for exemple. Bye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arctic Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 remove everything, get some paint and lighting ideas and start from scratch again. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iphitus Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 move your speakers, maybe mount them on the wall in the corner of the room or something. that'll free u some space around your desk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeeDubb Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 I wouldn't just move them, I'd get some smaller ones. You can very small speakers with great sound quality for very litle money these days. In all seriousness, I can't image speakers that big sitting on my desk. Also, comfortable input devices is always a must. I Use a Wacom Graphire for daily stuff, because it happens to fit my hand nicely. Find a keyboard and mous e that really fit you. Despite common belief, that are NOT all the say. Slightly diffferent inclines, different levels of tachtile feedback, and then there's the ergonomic ones, which ahve varying degrees of spread on them.

adamw Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 besides, big hi-fi speakers generally suck for near-field use. Get good PC speakers, Swan M200s, or real studio monitors (which are designed to sound good for near-field use). http://www.happyassassin.net/wp-content/im...gadget_porn.jpg That's my workspace here at home where I do most of my Mandriva work.

VeeDubb Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Too right. At that distance, you'd get better sound quality out of $50.00 headphones than $500.00 Hi-Fi's Small but high wuality is WAY better, not to mention how much space they take up. I use a pair of very compact Boston Acoustics that came with a Gateway I bought when I was 18. The sound quality up close is fantastic.
