@mangonights: Please... Towers are great. Racks to hold drives, two fans, a dedicated fan for the graphics card, a dust filter, delightful soft silicone mounts to eliminate spin noise.
Tell me where in some shitty mac mini you can find all of this goodness?
@Jerry: You're right. Dell Dimensions serve a wonderful purpose.
I mean, how many hectares of low-pile industrial-grade office carpeting have been amply held down by the weight of a Dell Dimension tower? So, as far as preventing the furnishing from floating off into space is concerned, a Dell Dimension is a wonderful solution. Also, there are few computers as qualified as a Dell Dimension in the attraction and herding of office dust bunnies.
Face it, Dell Dimension are the Ensure of the computing world. They get the job done but not in a particularly pleasing manner. That said, I am surprised and pleased that even the functional (in the same way that a run-of-the-mill plastic stapler is functional) Dell Dimension has someone of your caliber to defend its honor.
@Jerry: Why is it that so many people manage to be an idiot, or fail at calling fail in their postings on this site. Could you please offer a little enlightenment?
Now to address your comment. Dell no longer makes Dimension labeled machines. Therefore a Dell Dimension = Old + Busted.
The purpose of mood lighting is to add a certain degree of relaxing atmosphere to a given environment. It's not intended to be used as a visual representation of whatever mood you happen to be in. That would be stupid.
Can we have explanations/details with the gallery next time? I'm curious to know what these people do in their spaces/what they do with 6 monitors. I'm sure that people with setups as complex as this would love to talk about what went into their workspaces.
They say OCD like its some BAD thing??!! I cant wait to get home so I can take my time while lusting for my fellow Gizmotians work spaces. The only cool thing in my work space is ME.
@Barry99705: Those "work space photos" are out there, just none that can be traced back here. You only have to know where to look and thats a closely guarded secret.

Just buy a Mac mini or other mini-PC and hide it behind a kleenex box. Done.
