Earlier quoted context omitted.

It is indeed!

Does it only work for your terminal windows or can you tile any window? Any details on how you set it up, I can't seem to find a lot of info about it.

Only X/console apps. I primarily use it for vim + zsh.

The easiest way to set it up is to download the Haskell Platform, then cabal install xmonad, and get urxvt through homebrew.

I have my dotfiles up if you want to have a look: github.com/cloudhead/dotfiles.git

Not really a workspace, more like a work arrangement :-) http://i42.tinypic.com/2nvqis.jpg

Wow.

Oh, so you noticed my Arduino board ? :D

Thankfully I cleaned out the cans last night hiding my current lit survey due soon crazy caffeine addiction. Still running windows xp, nothing special.

Laptop: dualboot Ubuntu/XP, Netbook: Windows 7 (with synergy) This is my normal setup (1): http://www.der-ketzer.com/Imagenes/Full.jpg This is the setup from the desk at the room where I sleep (2): http://www.der-ketzer.com/Imagenes/Clean.jpg I prefer the setup (1), I find everything is in harmony =) I use the netbook for school, mail, im, tweetdeck, and the laptop for coding, etc.

What is the background on that CRT in Full.jpg? :)

A reflection: you people need to get better cameras and/or learn to use it properly! I'd have guessed that the average HN:er would have a decent camera… Apparently not!

Sorry in advance for horrible photo quality...

Nice and messy right now - was working on an GPS(RC)-Car Arduino project. Monitors not turned on due to the cluttered work-surface. (primary machine is a 15" santa rosa mbp) http://atk.me/files/170b56c8056c4aed4ad8f52e94182921.jpg

Couch-surfing setup with dell mini 10 (yes win7 - dual booting 10.04): http://atk.me/files/5642a6e504556e788427ad9f7d95f60b.jpg

Finally - my setup last year (not sure why mtvU was on.. used the TV for gaming every so often: http://atk.me/files/8d1798def07a5627c55c2173fc2daa52.jpg

Wow, nearly everyone works on a Mac. Any Linux/BSD users out there?

Not BSD, but:

Kubuntu laptop and desktop, and a Mac Mini if I have to do some Apple stuff.

Assorted VMware images for Vista and XP. Can boot th PC into Vista if a I really have to.
