3 monitors and 2 in portrait. G510s keyboard so I can use tons of macros.

Very nice setup and space! Love the way pages tile in the vertical monitors. Looks much easier to deal with!

Thanks, the one on the left I use the full screen for one instance of chrome. That is the only screen I do hits on. You don't realize how much time you can save not having to scroll.

Current Waffle setup:

Middle working station, right scraper for batches, top scraper for >$1 surveys or twitch/Netflix/anime, left for vertical hits/irc/forum/coding. All off the same machine.

G13 for scripts, highly recommended. has hotkeys for specific functions per page (checking radio buttons, submit buttons, window move, VDX).

Is that from turking money? :p What codes you working on on the left monitor?
Left monitor is hit scraper, IRC and Hit Monitor.

Yeah that is from turking money. $450/computer+$22x3/monitors+$320/GTX 970+$40/CoolerMaster Cosmos case.
Monitors came from Goodwill Computer Works as did the case.

I think I did pretty good for around $900 total.
Specs:
i7 3770 @3.40GHz
16gig ram
250gig SSD
3TB HD
Nvidia GTX 970
CoolerMaster Cosmos Case
Logitech G510s keyboard

Nice setup! Is that a pink mouse? So fun!
It is :D It actually changes color too. pink/green/blue/red

It's started double clicking though so I'm gonna have to get a new one ;~;

Here's my tiny little turking space (or huge, depends on the view you take. Here are two views.) All I use is my touch screen laptop, external mouse, and my wits.

What are the model number(s) for those vertical monitors? I have a Dell 2412M that's about a year old. I could use some vertical monitors.
Also, was looking to buy an overbed table so I can turk while in bed, I believe I found it (not my image):

It's pretty pricey at $250 though.

:o Why pay that much? You can get a bunch of options on Amazon for 20%-40% the price of that one. Amazon Best Sellers: Best Overbed Tables

If you are looking for a desktop set up here is some inspiration I came across today.
http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/50-greatest-computer-workstation-pcmac-setups/

Really digging the Mac on the Wall set up. So clean. So smooth.

Remember to feel free to use this thread to ask any computer or gear questions to your fellow turkers as well!
I just to love desktopped.com, but they got bought out, revamped, and then borked.
wherewedowhatwedo.com and workstationsetups.com are neat but have basically no categorization/tagging system, but are leaps and bounds better than /r/battlestations, which is just a circle jerk of the same ikea hardware over and over again with some monstrous minecraft machines and absolutely no taste or style.
