May I ask why you have two PC's on your desk? Are they for different purposes or is one your 'Retro' machine?

Sure you can ask. The black one is the PC I use to surf the Intenet, it is not so powerful, but the case is fresh and full of quite fans, so it is almost ever on. The other one is for games, both retro and new. I also have an old PIII, a kind of Frankenstein-PC I built to use during summer as we move in a shore house. I want to take it to home and transform it in an AROS-box soon.

Ah I see. I have just a all in one purpose machine set up. The other ones are gathering dust. Maybe I should set one up with Win98 again for some 'mid-age' retro stuff.

A long time ago even I had a 1200 looking like yours A3000, powered by a PC desktop case!!! And in the case I also placed CR-ROM drive and HD!

From left to right; A500+, A500 Designer, A1200/Blizzard 68060 and my old PC.
The little geen box, is used to turn on the diffrent computers. Its controlled by my alarm system.

And under the table, you see power supplies, and the Lon Nodes, who controls the power the the computers, via 5v USB sockets (long black ones)

You've got to love Ultra Magnus. A genius way of selling all those left over Optimus Prime casts that didn't get painted.

Plus he should have been the Leader, not that interfering little runt Hotrod.

tonyyeb, I love how your Keyboard blends into the unit. A nice case of matching yellows there!

I use the mouse with left hand (but I do not swap the buttons)
Yes, I use a KVM Switch: you can see it near the mouse. The two silver thigs are the ADSL modem and the KVM Switch.

Just took most of the lot out, and there was a few more goodies.

Spare SX-1 with package, CD 32 with SX-1, CDTV, C64, A570, 2xA500, A600 with HD, Kick 1.3 & 2.0 + mem expansion, A600 with HD & A1200 with Blizzard 1230, C+, GVP A500-HD+ with 8mb RAM and 100mb HD

Shame I don't have more time for it
