    Where in your house does your computer sit? And if you own a laptop, where in your house do you usually use it?

    Mine's in the "computer room", which I share with my husband's. We each have our workstations in there and we sit back-to-back. He also has a laptop but very rarely uses it in the house.

    IN our 3 bedroom house, we use two of the rooms as his and hers offices. Now we have laptops in the living room on secretary desks. The PCs are used for other duties. One is used for the Magic Jack phone and the other is now connected to the 42 inch plasma to stream movies as we wean ourselves from cable TV service.

    I only have one room. My computer is at one end and I can be online and watch TV at the same time. Very convenient living in one room.

    I own a laptop that sits in the closet unused. I keep it for a backup in case my tower is in the shop.

    My laptop is in my bedroom. I almost always use it when I'm perched on top of my bed.

    It is called an efficiency here but I suppose studio is what it is. They are quite common here on Miami Beach and I even had a condo same size & layout.

    Here is the rest of the apt.

    I see that you've had to make good use of wall space. Mine's not a studio/efficiency but it is a small house, and my walls are covered with something. The only thing in yours that makes me cringe a little bit is your, uh. . . micro-kitchen. But I know you're not into mega-cooking, which means you don't need much storage, so I'm sure it works well for you.

    One thing caught my eye, though. Is that a wall-picture of you and your wife by the computer station?

    Thanks for the photos.

    Good Heavens, have you been living in my house??? Our computer room is(was) also a bedroom, and with three computers in it (two are the husband's).
    Our Mobile home in a senior park, was a 2 bedroom front and back with no hallways to take up space. The previous owners had a large addition added so we have a large mudroom and an extra room for company for his exercise equipment and the cats table under a window so she can watch the birds and critters as they go by. So we have the computers in the front bedroom, and he sits nearest the windows and I have my corner a few feet from his. In the middle is the 3rd , I can use it for phone calls, and still have my computer running. He uses the 3rd old computer for storing his stories etc. It is kind of a back up as well because we also store our internet sites on it.

    Love my little kitchen. It is sooo convenient. When I broke my leg and had a cast my friend invited me to come stay at his house. I declined mostly because of his HUGE kitchen, one with a work counter in the middle with walkways all around it. I would need the crutches to get from the fridge to the stove to the sink.

    In my kitchen I left the crutches against the wall and held myself up on the counter, from where I could reach the stove, sink and fridge without moving.

    That pic has been in my house since it was taken in 1984. It is one of my favorite, when Brenda still had natural hair (Yeah, I survived gerry curls). That was before our nude beach so you can see that I actually am a 'white boy.'
