T-13, 1.14: placeholder

After submitting a rough draft of my proposed T-13 to a few folks, I realized–from the feedback–that I need to state and refine the basis for the Thirteen I proposed posting. So, here’s a “placeholder thirteen”–

Thirteen things on my desk:

1. 2 computers (only 2 at present).

2. 2 monitors–both bulky CRTs with great resolution and display characteristics. But only two, even though one comp’s set up for multiple displays.

3. Yadayada–two sets of mice/keyboards. KVM switches

4. Three sets of speakers.

5. table lamp.

6. Palm cradle and Palm.

7. An 1880s vintage Buffet Clarinet (partially disassembled)

8. Decorative beer stein stuffed with an assortment of conductor’s batons.

9. A small stack of bare hard drives.

10. Printer

11. Phones

12. Couple of different kinds of surge suppressors and a UPS (yes, ON the desk, it’s 3’X6′)

13. A couple of spindles of CDRs and DVDRs, assorted spindles of already written optical media.

I could go on. But that’s what my desk is like when it’s “cleaned off”–*heh*
