Now that the attic is pretty much done ( except for a couple of lingering things that the builder needs to do and won't get any more money out of me until he has ).... I am enjoying my new desk. It means that I am now telecommuting ( geek speak for working from home ) at least 2 days a week and often 3 days a week. Where we are in the lifecycle of the product release means I am able to do this, but it will probably be down to 1 to 2 days a week during phases of whatever the next release is when we need a lot of team interaction ( design work mainly ).
What does this give me?... I have a 40 mile round trip (64km) to the office and back. So working from home 3 days a week saves me 120 miles! It also gives me around 3 to 4.5 hours of my life back a week. I'm not stressing in the traffic with the crap drivers we have around here. I also get to spend a whole lot more time with my family which Margaret appreciates ( I think ).
I can go up to the attic or the second floor ( or here it would be the third floor since they count the ground floor as the first floor ), I can close the door and not have to reappear until lunch time if i don't want to.... I have a small bar area with a fridge up there, a bathroom, and a big screen TV ( but I NEVER have it on while I am working ).
Anyway, here's a badly lighted photo of my desk.....

Nice PC.
Why is it when I have Windows software, it BSODs on me but when I use Linux, it just works.
It's really annoying when I want to use UltraEdit
