Well, you could try setting it up like this:

Notice the Mac mini down in the lower-left corner... it's connected to everything, but out of your visual range so it doesn't matter if it goes with your keyboard, mouse, etc. (You'll notice everything on my desk is black, so I shared the same concern.)

Man, I don't want your electric bill! :D

I thought I was bad. Serious question, what's up with so many computers?

I like the red chairs in the other room. Where did you get them? :)
The chairs in the other room (BTW, they're cherry) came from Workbench in Raleigh, NC, circa late 2000. (That particular store is gone now, and I fear the entire chain may have gone out of business, but you can try their web site.) Sorry I can't remember their name... and there's nothing on them that identifies them.

EDIT: Here's another picture of them.

No, you don't want my electric bill. Trust me on this.

It used to be worse... there used to be *3* Sony PCs and *3* Sony notebooks. I'm a bit of a geek, as you might have noticed. :)

Sony 3.4 GHz PC: Main PC, used for web surfing, Flash design, Media Center server (all my music resides here). Connected to home theatre system.

Sony 3.2 GHz PC: Backup PC (used to be main PC). Not used much, but I am thinking of converting into a Windows Small Business Server 2003 with Exchange and web hosting, so I can maybe stop paying someone else to handle my e-mail and web services.

Sony 2.2 GHz notebook: Main notebook. My e-mail and personal web site (and other sites I'm developing) live here. I carry this with me so all my mail, etc. is available in one location.

Sony 850 MHz notebook: Backup notebook, although the main reason I keep it is because it is also a work of art (click here to see it). The HD on this notebook is continually reporting SMART errors, but I'm waiting to see if the HD actually fails.

Mac mini: Because I'm curious. :)

Very cool. Tempting for the PB.
