OK, Let's Share Workstation Shots

Again....mine changed.

I updated my setup with a 30 inch IPS monitor and felt the need to redo the whole shebang.

 

Thought it a good time to share setup shots. Anyone?

 

EDIT: I think my cameras suck.

I just sold an HP 23 inch Touchsmart All In One Desktop to someone here at WC. It was a good one.

I was looking at the HP 23" All-In-One when I purchased my monitor and quite liked the idea, but at $1299.00 it was more than I wanted to spend at that time.... and being I already have 3 working desktop PCs, I didn't really need it anyway.  Not that not needing something has stopped me in the past if I ever wanted something badly enough.  However, ne could be a consideration as a newtworked PC for the bedside in the future., though my laptop-come-tablet fits that bill very well and is likely easier to handle in that situation.

As for the Acer Switch, I had a look at it and other laptops that swiveled 360 degrees, but I wanted something that came apart and could be used as a Win 8.1 tablet independently.... hence the HP Envy X2  Again, I did not pay HP's advertised price... well, well below it, in fact.... about $500 less from Officeworks.

Acer switch does come apart into two pieces so you can use the screen part as a tablet only. The picture doesn't show that. 

 

Dunno what Hp 23 inch all in one you looked at but mine was only $525.00.

Not the one I looked at.  There were several models to choose from but none that converted into a Win 8.1 tablet.  There was one there that came apart, but it was of no interest to me because it ran Win 8.1 when in notebook mode, and Android when in tablet mode.  That was of no use to me... it had to be fully Win 8.1 or nothing.

As for the HP All-In-One, the one I looked at was a more expensive Intel version with a 3.0ghz quad core and 8gb of RAM.  There are cheaper AMD models [and some Intel ones] that 'may' have interested me, but they had none of those in stock at the time so I couldn'e evaluate whether I'd get one or not. 

As for the price, you have to remember that I'm speaking Aus dollars here, and right now the AUD$ is only buying 78 US cents... which would explain a part of the price difference, and thens there's the different pricing on the various models.  Besides, we Aussies have always paid more, especially for PC tech, with high gov't duties and taxes being the first additions to the cost.

Obviously a different model, yours.   The one I briefly looked at definitely had an Android OS when in tablet mode.

 I didn't pay that price though...  *_*

Nah, I like my 13.6" screen and stereo speakers... looks real swank when out and about.  I've had people come up and ask me what sort of tablet it is, which I tell them,,, then I'll get out the datatched keyboard and tell ten it comes with the tablet to create a notebook.  So far I've had at least a dozen people say they're most definitely going to get one after seeing mine in action.

Hmmm, maybe HP outghta pay me a commission. :-"

A novel Idea, yes, but it's really not for me.  I don't like wearing a wrist watch, so one of these things isn't going to suit my needs/likes.

I can see such a thing taking off with the yuppy set, though.

It's not nearly as clean now, and it's all sort of shifted around. Everything fits on the wall that the black shelves are on in these pics. The only thing that is still in the same location is the old square end-table thing that the tower is on.

And no, the desk isn't bowed. The front of it is slightly convex, and the angle of the pic makes it appear that way. The desk itself is actually quite sturdy.
