Of course, that taskbar looks to be a bit too tall for Vista. IIRC the taskbar in vista is a bit shorter...

Brendan's collection is tamed in comparison to mine, unfortunately, I have no pictures available

It's great that I'm not the only person who creates "Computer Islands".

That's... a lot of computers.

Ok, now seriously:

The development laptop is on the right and the one on the left I use for testing.

I got 'only' 11 PCs. However, I also have a boxfull of AVR chips and m68k boards and some other random stuff. can I count those too?

I should really clean my room if I want to brag with a photo as well...

Anyway, hardware collectors aren't that rare kind of species.

My room... well 1/4 of it.

I'm not going to post a picture of my physical environment, because the wallpaper is made for 6 year olds into sports and we can't remove it because the house is rented. :-p

So, here's a screenshot of my Debian boot. Windows isn't installed yet, will post it later.

Ok, I'll show off my small collection of boxes

The 3 at the far right aren't connected most of the time, i connect them where that Dell box is when I want to test on them, which I do every week or so. At the bottom is a rackmount dual P3 server, and the black one with "Athlon 64" on is actually a dual Pentium II. The other black one under my desk is my main box with a Core 2 Quad Q6600, and the Dell one is a 500Mhz P3 which is my main testing box.

Oh, and there's my trusty iPod touch on the desk
