Visiting My Desk: the PSOne

my PSOne

Well, it is Monday, and I am feeling exceedingly lazy. I had an equally lethargic weekend, so I really should be more recharged, and yet here we are…

Since I don’t want to break my post-per-workday habit, I’m introducing a new feature that requires an embarassingly-minimal amount of effort on my end. “Visiting My Desk” will be an exploration of the random clutter that is my workspace. I have enough stuff to hopefully sustain this for a while.

First up is my PSOne. This was the final design iteration on the venerable Playstation. As depressing as this is, I actually bought it before taking a family trip to Alaska, and worked most of my way through Final Fantasy 7 while spending time in various hotel rooms. The screen can actually be detached, and it can be plugged into a full-size TV. This little guy tends to stay stocked with Street Fighter Alpha 3, and helps me get through those late-afternoon doldrums.  I have purchases each Playstation model since this, but none has garnered my affection quite like this little guy.
