RE: [OT] RE: development environment

At home:

P4 2.8HT, 1.25Gb, ~200gb in various drives, 1x17" LCD, 1x19" Trinitron @
1280x1024(colour palettes on the Sony), leaning required to watch the
Simpsons, close to beer supply in kitchen (small apartment). Nice view of
the Story Bridge. Lousy Dodo 1/2 meg ADSL :) Big mofo Sony stereo for mp3
goodness, and a tablet for photoshop.

At the office:

Celery (non D) 2.6, 512mb, 40gb, 17" Samsung LCD (12ms, but nice
nonetheless). Enough for work (and quake 3 on Fridays) but nothing to write
home about.

Various servers ranging from gutless old p2s, to the mighty Darwin (assloads
of ram, a couple of xeons, you can hear the fans spool up from the other
side of town)

IntelliJ, MySQL (lousy opensource zealots ;-)), CVS *shudder*

Dev: Athlon XP2200, 1Gbyte RAM, 80G hardware-mirrored HDDs*, Win2K
server, dual 1280x1024 TFTs.  Netbeans (when I have to), Ant, JUnit,
vim, CVSNT, putty.  Coffee machine next door - an important piece of
most developers' environments.

Test: 8-CPU Xeon 900, 2G RAM, 18G mirrored HDDs, Gentoo Linux, headless.
Ant, JUnit, vi, cvs, ssh.  In a secured machine room.  We're hacking
with a virtual file system and Tomcat internals, and we wanted a machine
where we could do some serious thread and load testing.  This came off
ebay for about $3k.

* Yes, it's a workstation.  No, that's not an excuse for a developer to
have the HDD as a single point of failure :-).  These HDDs are
deliberately from different batches and different sources, so that it's
less likely they'll fail at close to the same time.

[OT] Re: development environment

2005-04-22 Thread Frank W. Zammetti
* Pentium IV 2.8GHz, 2G RAM, dual 21" monitors (CRT's... they're still 
far better to me, screw size!)

* Windows XP Professional as main OS and Redhat8/WinNT/Win98/Mandrake in 
VMWare for testing

* UltraEdit & Directory Opus - This is essentially my development 
environment, these two are where I spend 90% of my time during the day

* Tomcat locally for all development as well as an instance on the 
Redhat VM, a secondary PC next to me (lesser hardware specs, but still 
decent) running Windows 2000 has WebSphere 5.1 which is our production 
app server of choice

* Maxthon and Firefox for testing
* Oracle 9i for all database development
* SourceSafe for some things, CVS for others (we are moving to all CVS, 
but SS is still in use right now)

That's the important stuff I figure.  That's at work by the way, but I 
have an almost identical setup in my home office (laptop instead of 
secondary PC is the big difference), configured in a very similar way, 
so with the full VPN access to work, I can work almost as effectively at 
home as at work, not to mention work on my own stuff off-hours.
