**Dillinger4** · Sep 18th, 2004, 09:13 PM

I have successfully completed a weekend without having a drink. I feel much better but now my hands are lonely. What could i do to keep them occupied?

Marty, can we have a "Recovering Alcoholics" forum please?

Me, Cander, Dilenger, the list goes on...

We need to help each other through this difficult patch in our lives

I'm off to grab a pint. Of orange squash of course!

Proper dev tools...

My secondary monitor was made by a rucksack company. Go figure.

**mendhak** · Sep 19th, 2004, 06:05 AM

What's the config of the no-name laptop?

**wossname** · Sep 19th, 2004, 06:20 AM

That's my Black-Ops rig. I can't release that information at this time.

Move back please there's nothing to see here.

Nah its just a 1.5Ghz Celery, 20GB hdd, 256MB Ram, XPHome, VS.Net FW1.1.

Nothing special. Got it second hand last year.

wossname nice setup. I noticed that your flatpanel monitor is made by head. So is that what you use to get away when you are on a mission high in the swiss alps?

That's no developer's setup... where's the cigarette butts, the ashtray, the leftover pizza and the half smoked joint?

You should see my non-web connected dev room, spiders, coffeemugs full of furry green stuff (Sometimes gives me coding advice I if get stuck) and my pet mushroom slice.

**BodwadUK** · Sep 20th, 2004, 03:50 AM

Smoking is for weeklings with no balls

**Wally Pipp** · Sep 20th, 2004, 03:51 AM

a proper programmer's desk should be a pig sty where even cockroaches refuse to venture ...

**BodwadUK** · Sep 20th, 2004, 03:55 AM

How come you are still there then

**Wally Pipp** · Sep 20th, 2004, 04:00 AM

**BodwadUK** · Sep 20th, 2004, 04:17 AM

They are my friends and they help keep my enemies away

**Mutant** · Sep 20th, 2004, 06:22 AM
