I'm a little bored so I thought I'd start this thread.
I was just curious as to how many of you listen to their empeg/Rios at work and where/how they display theirs.
Here is a shot of mine at the office. It sits just behind me and gets lots of attention from all who come into the office.

If and when Mark puts out more docking stations I will most definitely have to get one.
The in-box tray looks ok but my baby deserves better.

Out of all the things there on that desk, the empeg gets lots of attention?

Right now my dock is undergoing a face lift (getting painted black). It sits in the corner of my desk and I control it with Tony's Face program.

I've been working out of home lately.. Yeah, that's a Nitzer Ebb coffee mug! And a 21 Sun Microsystems monitor that is never used...



Anyone else hate those "use" marks that notebooks get?

I know it would not seem that way
I usually have the visuals on which almost always catches thier eye. One of the things I do here is make Photo ID/access cards. The camera is just to the left of that shot so it's hard to miss. Most think it's XM.

Here is a wider shot.

Mine is always going at the office and gets attention now and then (we are a small office and most people are used to it by now). Here is a crappy treo 600 camera pic of it. It is in there somewhere.

Trust me, once you leave from visiting Adobe whether you are a family member, client, event attendee or coming in off the street to use the restroom, that logo is burned onto the retnas of your eyes. That logo is everywhere here on the first and second floors of all three towers.

Come to think of it, you can't escape from it even on the working floors! AAAAAHHHHHH!!!

Does anyone else feel this thread should be titled "Empeg ;@WORK"? Maybe it's just me.

I'm lucky enough to live a block from where I work, so I walk every morning and my empeg stays home.

Is that thing on the wall an amalgamation of old computer parts and electronics? Figured I'd venture a guess.

Here's a closeup of it:



Click here to get a bigger view.

My buddy Matt (who was my roommate for 5 or so years) made this for me for my wedding present. It's a kind of college collage. Pretty much every thing we did in school is up on my wall. The case is not a briefcase, it's wood covered with contact paper which he used to laminate the images onto it. I was the only EE in our house, so he made it electronics heavy.

Which two, out of curiosity? I'm buying it for the one on the bottom left, but the rest look to be the exact same shade of red to me.

The ones on the left side. If you'd like i can take a close up to prove that the plastic that coats the stickers is in fact peeling off and not the stickers themselves. I'll even solve it for ya step by step.

I keep leaving the camera at home... Here's a photo in my old office about 4 years ago. (It's a large image on a server that no one can get to anymore... I closed that jump.net account almost 2 years ago!) Same stereo, new lens and AnoFace, new walled office and a new project...

There is an empeg visible in that shot, but you would have to know where it is to pick it out. The empeg that would normally be docked in there is sick at the moment. One of the drives is acting up.

Might be one of those old school ergonomic Microsoft keyboards. It had a split in the middle, just like this one, with a little dial to adjust. You could fold the entire thing in half, or split it in half, if you wanted. A friend of mine has one that he swears by. It's perfect for putting a CD player under.

Loren -- if that *is* one of those MS keyboards, do you have any leads on where I can get one, now that they're no longer in production?

What's up with the keyboard? I've never seen one sit quite like that before.
It's a Goldtouch keyboard. I LOVE this thing. I was having some pretty severe wrist pains a couple years back and i became the squeeky wheel until i got this put on my desk, and a week or so later, no more wrist pain. It's fully adjustable so it can go all the way flat and together or close to 60 degrees slanted. This thing in combo with my old school SGI 3 button mouse, and i'm stress injury free. =]. Now if i could just source a box of these SGI mice... you can't find good three button non scroll wheel mice in this form factor anywhere. This is my third one (the buttons on the other two died) and once this one goes i'm going to have to swap out the microswitches. =]

I hadn't realised just how untidy my office was until I took a photo of it. Time for a spring clean me thinks.



P.S. No, we didn't choose that awful wallpaper or carpet and yes we will be redecorating soon...

Here's mine. It doesn't get that much attention - the main tourist draw is the stack of discs required to feed it.



I would show you the view out of the window. If we had a window.

Only slightly more so than in your part, I believe.

(Actually, we're out in the delightful "new village" of Cambourne, ten miles west of you guys. Our nearest pub is a five-minute drive away - a bit further than Empeg Towers to the Wrestlers!)

The monitor in the center of that shot is actually on a 4-port switch. The ones on the left side are print server related, and the two on the right are our main and backup AS/400 monitors. There are actually a lot more computers/monitors (it's a big room) but the shot shows the area I generally confine myself to

From the ThinnkGeek website, this has to be one of my personal favorites: "Stupid Technicians Found Unworthy". I do support for a software program that private schools use and a lot of those schools have low-budget Technology departments thus leaving them with IT (Idiot Training) guys. I would love to buy this for some of them.

Hey! nice grey skull you got there.
reminds me of the Star Child.
For those who do not know what I am talking about, here is a link.
There was a site with tons of cool facts about it but don't have the time to search right now...... whoa!.....it's noon here and I have to get back to work.

Thanks! It was a gift from a very good friend...

Now that I think about it, he gave it to me after a trip to Nevada..

There are Empeg Geeks that don't have broadband?

I renamed my P1010116.JPG to BIGP1010116.JPG and uploaded a smaller image with the same name since it wouldn't let me edit my post anymore.

Depends. The Octane in the first pic (the one with the bloo LED) is my main everyday system. The o2 is being rebuilt for a webserver, while the other Octane is sort of in limbo.

But mostly I just use 'em to embarass the Dell.

The empeg lives in that big, black thing, it's that big because it contains an amp, PSU, X10 switches to power the empeg and trigger its accessory line, and more stuff to switch the input between the computers and the empeg and the output between several rooms.

I was just curious as to how many of you listen to their empeg/Rios at work and where/how they display theirs.


The work that I do is exceptionally detailed (lots of interacting transactions) and requires intense organization. I couldn't survive in a messy environment so here is what my desk looks like.

Try [ img ] url w. http:// in it [ / img] (remove the spaces)

I see you're a fan of the Ford GT!

EDIT: Actually, you did it right, you just have a typo... the url should be http://empeg.comms.net/files/204901-1.jpg and you accidentally put http://empeg.comms.net/files/204901/1.jpg

The foolproof way to add a picture to a post (if you're in IE):

1. Attach it as you would do normally.
2. Go back to your post.
3. Right click on the 'Attachment' link and hit 'Properties'. Copy all of the text from the 'Address' field into the clipboard.
4. Back at your post, hit Edit.
5. Put the following text: [ image ] [ /image ] (without any spaces) in your text, and paste the link in between the two tags.
6. Uncheck the 'mark as edited' box.
7. Save changes.

So, lemme get this straight. You work for four different Clear Channel-owned stations and you bring your empeg to work to listen to music?

Yeah, that sounds about right.

He also had "www." in front of "empeg.comms.net".

A slightly quicker shortcut to Roger's method is to right-click on the "attachment" field and select "Copy link location" and then paste it between the <image> tags.

Well... Clear Channel doesn't seem to play a lot of Mozart nor are they big on audio books.

They seem more interested in contemporary nois... uh, music, and Mozart hasn't put out anything new in ages.

OK, you asked for it...



Here is my home office complete with office assistant.

The "Plastic Shine" bottle is for cleaning/polishing CDs before ripping them. Seems to work very well -- EAC rarely shows any re-read attempts. Printer is Kyocera (1/4 cent per page for consumables); scanner is an old HP IIcx ScanJet, hugely better than the cheap <$200 USB "throwaway" scanners you see today. (It'll scan an 8x10 color photo in about 10--12 seconds.)

The post about the science toys site gave me the idea to post stereogram pictures of my office. These are the cross-eyed versions since I can't diverge my eyes on command.

First of three attached, the empeg and the Karma are on the left.

Second pic, various clutter on my desk, including an ADSL modem that crashes intermittently, which was kindly replaced with an extra from one of the BBS members here.

Funny, I was looking at that section also but dismissed it because I can never seem to bring everything into focus once I've achieved to line up the images.

Those are super-cool, Tony. The mismatch in the monitor scan in the first one was weird. I liked the long depth through the window to the outside. Interesting moire clash happening on the speaker in the second. And I love the third -- Dilbert "floating" there and the shadow behind the rack. Lots of depth, too. Couldn't focus on the blinds rod, though; probably too close to the edge of the frame.

Oh, and thanks for the cross-eye ones. I can't do the diverge thing, either, and am usually lefy out of this stuff.

Yeah, as I was shooting the pics, I thought to myself "the monitor scan mismatch is going to look interesting". And I also have trouble focusing on the blind rod, not sure why.

And Skunky: It takes practice to focus on the things, but my first suggestion is to sit far, far away from the monitor so that the image is just a small square in your field of view.

It promised to be cool. It was a day-by-day calendar where each day's page is the next day's paper. So far, though, the instructions have been pretty lousy. And there are way too many days of: "Take yesterday's thing and do it again and this time draw some stuff on it. It'll be a party favor." Super. In fact, if you go over to my gallery and look at the Random Stuff gallery, I've taken pictures of the one so far I've been totally unable to reproduce. Step 8 should be captioned "magic happens". See if you can figure it out.
