I find how untidy that room is deeply disturbing for some reason.. We're all different, I guess. Also didn't know WG could snoop USB, a neat trick!

- TedDoesntTalk 5y agoWhy do you need a 12,000 BTU air conditioner for 3 computers?
- classichasclass 5y agoIt's more than that, and the POWER6 in particular and the RAIDs run a bit warm anyway. It may be overkill but it's never failed to keep the room cool even during bad summers.
- nebula8804 5y agoMaybe I'm biased but this seem common with all the "retro computer" enthusiasts I have met.
- drewzero1 5y agoAt least in my own experience, using vintage tech often requires collecting a bunch of ancillary equipment to get it to work, communicate, etc. Often you'll end up needing to keep multiple generations of networking equipment, monitors, peripherals, all only compatible with certain systems due to either age or brand ecosystem. I've seen a few neat setups where people specialize in one era of one brand. I am not one of those people and my computer room looks a lot like the pictures.
- marcosdumay 5y agoIs it possible to gather non-standard hardware and have a tidy room? (Whether you are developing, collecting, studying, or just using it doesn't seem to matter.) It would certainly oppose all of my expectations.
