I make websites for a living Hi! I'm just someone who develops websites. This blog isn't about me, but it's vaguely related to what I do.

If you're a freelancer, like I am, then you probably use your own equipment to do your job. If you also use your computer for entertainment, particularly if you're a gamer, it's probably a good idea to have more than one computer. After all, you don't want all those browser tabs, FTP windows and large Photoshop files hogging up precious gaming resources, do you?

Separate your work by having a computer specifically set aside for working. If you ever need to do a job urgently, you just get on that computer and start on the work. It's always ready to go. And you never need to worry about closing any of your programs to get better gaming performance.

Personally, I do all my development work on my laptop these days, which means I can take it with me to visit clients, or when I go on vacation. I keep my high-end desktop machine with the new nVidia graphics card and 28 inch screen for playing the latest games, watching videos, etc.
