A Showcase of Workstations that’ll Make You Jealous. Whether you’re a designer, developer, animator, or blogger, your workstation plays a major role in how you get things done.
Some of us like a neat, clean, and inspiring workspace, while others require a crazy over-the-top hardware configuration. In this article, we’ve compiled a showcase of photos that will give you workstation envy. The thing about workstations is that even if you have a nice one, seeing another awesome setup can make you a bit jealous.

After the great SpudServer joke, I thought it would be interesting to see what an actual server capable of running on potatoes would look like. This server is very, very slow (around 0.2 hits/second), so you may have trouble connecting. The CPU is a Microchip PIC16F876 running with a 76.8 KHz clock and a nominal 1.5V supply voltage (somewhat outside the manufacturer's specifications). At this speed and voltage, it draws 20 microWatts (0.00002 Watts), or roughly 100,000th to 1 millionth the power of any Intel 386 board I know of. It connects via SLIP at 4800 baud. Every 5 minutes or so, a PC measures the voltage, current, and power output of the potato battery and sends the values in a small UDP packet to the server.
Caveat Driving a standard PC serial port requires over 200 times the power needed to run the CPU, which would mean an additional 1000 potatoes. Status Hardware Software Efficiency. StorageReview.com. Breakthrough Nanotechnology Will Bring 100 Terabyte 3.5-inch Digital Data Storage Disks. Have you ever dream of 100 terabyte of data per 3.5-inch disk?
New patented innovation nanotechnology from Michael E. Thomas, president of Colossal Storage Corporation, makes it real. Michael invented and patented the world's first and only concept for non-contact UV photon induced electric field poling of ferroelectric non-linear photonic bandgap crystals, which offers the possibility of controlling and manipulating light within a UV/Deep Blue frequency of 1 nm to 400 nm. It took him 14 years to find a practical conceptualization that would work to advance the storage industry; 3D Volume Holographic Optical Storage Nanotechnology, for which Michael holds the patents.
He was invited to present this fascinating discovery to the National Science Foundation in February 2004. • Join PhysOrg.com on Facebook! Build your own LCD Video Projector. Here are some other LCD projector plans recently mailed to me by somebody, I scanned them in for you: By the time you are done going through all this information, you should be able to build a video projector that will work as well as any one of the brand name LCD video projectors that cost hundreds to thousands of dollars, for less than $300.
To get started you need to know how these projectors work. It's quite simple really; the projector uses a different light source other than the LCD monitor. It magnifies the picture with one or more lenses and with the power of an alternate light source. It then projects it onto a screen for viewing. Why use an LCD projector over a standard CRT/TV frensnel lens magnified projector? Choosing an LCD monitor for your projector: A decent LCD monitor which ranges in size from 2 to 5 inches diagonally, can be purchased via many internet or traditional vendors for under $100 USD. How Graphics Cards Work" The images you see on your monitor are made of tiny dots called pixels.
At most common resolution settings, a screen displays over a million pixels, and the computer has to decide what to do with every one in order to create an image. To do this, it needs a translator -- something to take binary data from the CPU and turn it into a picture you can see. Unless a computer has graphics capability built into the motherboard, that translation takes place on the graphics card.
A graphics card's job is complex, but its principles and components are easy to understand. How to build a tin can waveguide antenna. Assemble the probe and mount in can Now you'll need that bit of wire.
You'll need a soldering iron or a friend with one as well. Cut the wire so that when it is stuck in the connector as shown, the total length of both the brass tube and wire sticking out past the connector is 1.21".
