Default Your Desk

I was bored so I thought I would create a random topic! Really though; I was just sitting here thinking how messy my desk is, and how most other peopls' desk is. So I thought, why not create a thread to see how messy everyone else's desk is. All you have to do is take a picture of your desk and upload it to this thread. The person with the messiest desk at the end of 7 days wins a prize (there will be a poll). I reccommend you don't read below here on this post, but read all the other posts.

Forget This: There isn't a prize really, but I'll do the poll.

Here's my desk:



It's full of crap: an old digital camera, old sticks of RAM, a sh*t webcam and much, much more.

Haha, my desk is clean because I recently got my computer moved to my bedroom . Josh, you have a large desk, I only have a small/medium sized one.

And I've got a UPS which isn't in the picture - so it's a bit messier than that.

Pah! Thats nothing! Mines got at least 20 caseless CD's scattered everywhere, 3 beer cans, 3 half empty mugs and two glasses, a pile of opened letters, 2 screwdrivers and two screws, a pen and two pen tops, some nail clippers and a half full ashtray.

If only I had a digital camera!

If only you'd have started this 2 weeks ago Josh (before I moved house) I think I could have won this hands down, however here's how my temporary new office has developed within a week of setting it up — it was a lot worse than this 2 days ago but hey, I'm expecting guests tomorrow! What you can't quite see on the floor (next to the two aerosol cans) are a spare notebook PSU, another 3Com 24-port switch, an assortment of CAT5 cables, IEC leads, a Volt Stick, a vacuum cleaner nozzle, a black rubbish sack, one discarded sock and a pair of boots!
