..."my man cave".

I'm sitting next to two laser printers, a multi-function color printer, a powerhouse desktop with both a 27" and a 19" monitor, and typing on my 17" laptop. Oh, and there are two Win98SE towers behind me that aren't currently plugged in. I've got four UPS devices on the floor just for this room and probably ten or more elsewhere in the house. I don't worry too much about power failures.

Geeks are geeks - don't bother trying to change us.
