Your DREAM Home 'Office' Set-up
Mine would be a devoted, talented, unpaid assistant doing all the work whilst I get all the credit. ;)
Sorry encyclo, but I already have a job...
As far as my dream office machine, make it an ISeries (IBM AS/400). Who needs frills, whistles and bells when you have power.
How much is a meg of RAM going for these days?
Hey giggle - where can you buy just one mb of ram? :)
One laptop with a robust wireless connection.
Balcony, warm sunshine, cool sea-breeze, waves crashing on the shore below, birdsong, mountains off to my left. Glass of orange juice. Beautiful and intelligent accomplice.
That's not too ambitious really, is it? I suppose if I apply myself I could probably manage that before summer 2006.
I've got a 17: LCD, and bought it not long after they first came out.
I've got a Dell (sorry :) ) 4700c, which is a tiny little machine that's silent as you're going to get without getting a specialty PC.
Aaron Chang print on the wall, scored it from an antique market. It's completely 80's, and reminds me of that time. Tons of pictures and artwork from my kids on the wall.
Window faces onto the bush/forest that is in my backyard.
Wireless keyboard and mouse combo. I didn't go cheap on that. (actually, it just died so I'm looking for a new set)
I'm wired in most places in the house, but I'm going to be putting in wireless shortly. This summer we have a new and large deck, and my wife is now at home working with me. So I'm planning on getting a second laptop plus wireless so we can work on the deck.
A 17 in screen on a laptop with wireless connection. A recliner in the living room, a deckchair in the garden, and a new double or triple garage with a new master bedroom suite and an office above it. This would give me a view to the mountains. Hardware in the office would include printers etc and probably a grunty desktop with maybe twim 19in LCDs.
Good day "in the office" --- cast fishing line into lake, read email, write code and design websites while waiting for bobber to wiggle.

Of course, I would be able to work alot more in my dream office if I lived somewhere with better weather.;)
dream setup has just gotten cheaper, amd64 with 1 gig ram, good mobo, quiet box, linux only, samba for file serving other boxes, keep old box for windows testing.
Dual flat panel monitors on main box.
ibm laptop 1 gigaherz or more for travel etc, main os linux, dual boot with windows 2000 just in case.
really big desk.
