Google Calendar Overhead Waiting Room Display


Simple: Google Enterprise calendar, HTML view. The entire system including the solid wood cabinet cost about a couple thousand dollars. Aside: I have not read all of Unix Power Tools or Unix Networking, so don’t think I’m a Unix genius. I just know basic stuff like how to open a port and manually read and write HTTP headers. I did read War Nerd. So far, nobody I’ve noticed has complained about that book, though sometimes I mark up books that I don’t like, and last week, a patient exclaimed to Steve that he knew the author of the book I had defaced! But it was OK, because he thought she was a “such a snob,” so he thought that was hilarious. So sometimes, Greenwich Connecticut is OK. There’s nothing that can bring people of all cultures together faster than a mutual hatred for stuck up snob impostors. I told the patient: “yah, that’s why I like computers. They don’t lie.” I don’t think he liked that answer, but whatever.


This computer was originally my desktop computer purchased for me by Paul Charlton of Mountain View, CA. So if you’re out there… hey, Paul. You can have you computer back, but I broke the system fan sensor so you have to press F2 twice to bypass the BIOS warning.


This is how the waiting room is arranged from the entrance; the calendar display is immediately to the left.

I had bought the drawers from Ethan Allen across the street. I had somehow convinced the Ethan Allen people that it was OK to move the piece across Highway 1 on a dolly directly into my office lol. This was from this summer.
