This is what my modern computer setup looks like, where I spend most of my computing time. That's an 3.3ghz i5 btw with 2.5TB of HDD space and 8GB of DDR3 RAM running Fedora Linux and Windows 7.
Love the retro beige case and CRT powering your i5 powerhouse. 😀
Thanks though, I tried to mimic the mid 90's as close as I could by memory when setting up my computer and room. I wanted it to as familiar as possible. 🤣
The latest office decoration (dimensions of the photo are 70x40 cm). The photo itself cost 20€ and the custom frame a whopping 30€. Not cheap but looks great.
Seeing as my computing area is continually changing, and as I haven't posted anything on here in absolute ages, I'm going to risk posting a new computing area pic.
My retro boxes aren't really visible in this pic though, and for that I apologise, but as I'm trying to be mostly productive these days, I don't really use my retro systems much at the moment.

I'm going to boast a little noticing that you're a FL Studio producer and have a Fractal Design Define chassis =)

Really nice! What's with the cardboard walls though? 😀
From left to right:
-Dark case on floor is Athlon XP 2200+ with Radeon 9800 Pro on WinXP
-Beige case on floor has no OS on it, but it houses a Phenom 9650. Haven't decided what to do with it yet. Maybe a Win7 system. I just don't have enough components to build it up at the moment.
-Silver and black case on floor is my main rig. Xeon 3070/8800GTX/TB Santa Cruz on WinXP. I do all my web browsing and "modern" gaming on it.
-Dell Dimension 4100 on top is my Win98SE PC. P3 933 with a 128-bit FX5200 and SB Live!.
-And on the far right is my trusty Packard Bell POD 200MMX DOS PC with TNT2 M64 PCI and Audician 32 Plus/Dreamblaster S1.
The XP and Win98 PC share (via KVM) a beige Princeton 19" LCD 5:4 display (1280x1024), KeyTronic keyboard and generic crap PS2 optical mouse.
The DOS PC uses a Dell QuietKey and Logitech white PS2 optical mouse and has a 19" Gateway VX900 CRT. The picture is gorgeous and great controls, it's just a little too big. I wish I had a better 15" or 17" CRT to use in its place, but the ones I have are in really bad shape.
I'm short on speakers, so I'm using the Princeton monitor speakers for Win98, Grado SR60 headphones for WinXP, and some nice Gateway ACS41 desktop speakers for DOS.
The Dimension 4100 has a SideWinder Precision Pro joystick plugged into the SB Live!. The WinXP PC has a Thrustmaster T16000M, and the DOS PC has a CH Products Mach I.
The desk used to be a sewing table, and you can see the cubbies on the right still have some sewing supplies in them It's a work in progress...😀
