Mine can do that as well, but it got old fast.

It only takes a second to rotate the display... Windows then automatically changes the orientation. That does sound like a lot of work. :o

But wait until my "BIGGEST TETRIS EVER GAME" is released. That will make you want to flip your monitor around again!

Mine hasn't changed much since the last time, except that it is rotated by 90° now (was previously parallel to and under the shelf on the right):

It's also a great feature to use on classic arcade games in MAME (vertical shooters).

Are you forgetting of the Tetris game's programmed into the lights in HighRise buildings?

My drawing tablet/pen looks almost exactly like yours, Dennis. What type is it?

Care to give some more food to curious minds, who are desperately trying to think about what they see in that picture of yours with cleverly inserted teaser? 8-)

If you look at the printer in the enlaged version of his desk you will see a game case.

My room is pretty messy ATM. Cleaning up is on my todo list. Actually, my room isn't bad, it's my desk that is atrocious.

BAF's desk has gotten... worse.

My desk, though, has not changed. I will reuse the same images:

Holy shit!
How many applications do you have running?!! :o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o:o
The task bar is more cluttered than the real desk ;)

EDIT: esp. in the second image.

This is my normal workflow. Most of my open crap is notepad windows, because I'll open one to take down a quick note or paste something for reference while I'm working on the left screen or something, and never close it.

Poor BAF. Click. Whoops, wrong notepad. Click. Whoops, wrong notepad. Click click click.

TIP: You can close windows by pressing the red x at the top right.

I get plenty done, just not on any projects anyone from here knows about, unless they visit wooters.us. (Actually, most of my work is behind the scenes, I haven't done very much at all as far as the site goes... the only public facing product that is my project is the Windows Mobile app, all the rest is the behind the scenes data gathering/handling/push updates/etc).

At least I've gotten into the habit of closing unused tabs in firefox. I used to be horrible about that.

Same here, until I learned the Ctrl+W key shortcut. Now when I'm opening a new window, I press & hold those keys before hitting Ctrl+O.

Personally I hate having many windows open.

My bad, I've thought Kibiz0r was referring to the pictures on the wall, to which I was referring.

EDIT:
Oh and obligatory photo. In the center of the table is my old laptop, on the right is that overpriced mirror with integrated heating spiral. Say goodbye to it, was a week with me.

Those are concept sketches for a game I'm making. <insert the usual excuses for why I'm slacking and not making any progress on it>
