My wife does the interior decorating around here (this is my home office). Even most of the books on the shelf are hers.The smoking paraphernalia is in a different cabinet (sorry, no bongs, only tobacco gear):

content: Quote from: subolg123 on July 06, 2014, 02:15:51 amYou have one excellent lab. You need a bar fridgeAlso a nice thing in electronics is a desk where you can adjust the height with a motorised mechanism. A mate bought the mechanism for about $1300 and used a door at the bench-top. He can work standing up or sitting down. Sitting down for too long is not good for us. He loves it.I don't like MACs for two things: If it goes wrong, kiss goodbye to $ and suffer a long lead time to get it fixed. And Apple is an unethical and greedy company. Agreed, Windows has always been a crap operating system, and their later versions of MS office are full of usability problems and bugs.With an IBM clone at least, you can fix it the same day yourself and parts are as cheap as chips. And Altium, Labview and everything else important runs on it.
