The Day Trader’s Paradise [Featured Workspace]
What do you get when you have space for a custom office setup, a good amount of cash, and the vision to make it all happen? Dozens of monitors and the need for your own personal power plant.
We’ve been watching Steve’s office since he first posted the construction pictures into the Lifehacker Workspace pool. Slowly we’ve watched his office take shape from a spackled room with naked monitor mounts into the jaw dropping display of computing power you see above.

Steve just finished the project and posted some pictures to update us, writing:
Originally there was to be 60 monitors, a mix of 19s and 24s however it changed a bit and there is now 40 24″ monitors and another 20 monitors offsite for development.
There is six computers running all the monitors, eac computer has a core i7 975, 24 gb of DDR 3 memory, two SLC SSDs in raid 0 and a large amount of nvidia NVS 420s as well as Nvidia 9800 GTs.
This office is used for intraday trading and development.
And by “intraday trading and development” he means displaying the world’s largest line chart screensaver when he isn’t using it to build a better bomb and issue demands of monetary compesation to world governments—or something like that we’d imagine. Check out more pictures of his awesome setup below:






You can check out more pictures of Steve’s office by visiting the various photo sets he shared during construction: Office construction, Office, and New Office Done.
If you have a workspace of your own to show off, throw the pictures on your Flickr account and add it to the Lifehacker Workspace Show and Tell Pool. Include some details about your setup and why it works for you, and you just might see it featured on the front page of Lifehacker.
Props to Lifehacker

Two words: Flight sim!
FunkyMonkey
Vulgar; obscene opulence. This is damn near the Dubai of home work-spaces. Yet somehow it comes across vaguely artistic.
PS. Why is there no info corresponding on the graphs.

Wow! Leave the graphs, but get me that amount of systems and monitors!
And a few beamers, a dolby-surround system, HD-TV…
Nevermind, wishful thinking, I know.
But I must admit, nice workplace. Everything in a small look-around!
