My machineroom

This is the room where I keep my computers and other hi-tech devices.

In this photograph you can see, from left to right, an Amiga 1200 connected to a computer CRT monitor via an exeternal flicker fixer, an Amstrad CPC 464 with a monochrome monitor, an Atari 65XE, a Sinclair Spectrum ZX (48K), a Commodore 64 with its datassette, a VHS digitizing set composed by a 14“ TV set, a combo DVD-VHS video recorder and a HP computer with a video capture device. Under the desk there is an HP Proliant server with SCSI disks and a DAT tape drive. It's not powered on because of the noise it makes…

Behind the camera there is a 12U 19” rack cabinet containing the electronics for my network: a D-Link 24 port gigabit switch, an Ubiquiti PoE Tough Switch which feeds the wifi radios from the roof, a 2U rackmount server with 2 mobos and Xen for NetBSD. Everything is routed by a fanless minicomputer which runs a Opnsense router appliance. There is also a Mikrotik router for the WAN guifi.net connection.
