    Past vs THE FUTURE!

    We all know how much technology is changing over the years. Its changing at a rapid rate but is your working environment changing too?

    I know people who have had the same desk, the same tatty chair for around 10 years now... still plodding on with that 486. But then on the other hand... I know people who still have that tatty desk and chair but with a speedy PC and this mega wega huge monitor! BUT they keep the old keyboard and mouse.



    Myself on the other hand prefers everything just right! new and fresh!

    Here's a photo that was taken about 3 years ago...





    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    And here's a photo taken a few days ago....





    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    So then.... you've seen my before and after desk photos................ Whats yours like?

    before



    now



    It isn't even in the same place!!! If you look carefully... the monitor hasn't got the bunny atop of it now, and there's a picture blu-tacked to it, and the bulb in the desk light has been changed... also I have swapped the pringles tins for empty space
