My portable office: Noise canceling headphones(Linx Audio), Microsoft Arc Keyboard, Microsoft Arc Mouse, 22" AOC usb monitor (http://us.aoc.com/monitor_displays/e2251fwu http://us.aoc.com/monitor_displays/e2251fwu) and my laptop, of course. Rooted Android phone with Foxfi for tethering in case internet is unreliable. Commuting is for wussies!

Reddit has a lot of pictures of various setups, though maybe not specifically for "home office" purposes... http://www.reddit.com/r/battlestations http://www.reddit.com/r/battlestations

When it gets warm enough each spring, I set up a folding table in a sunroom on the back of my house, and move my laptop along with a second monitor over there. The room has 5-foot-tall windows all the way around which I keep open. My screens are shaded from the sun, but otherwise it feels just the same as being outdoors all day. That's my home office until the fall, when I go back to using one of my spare bedrooms. http://www.dangrossman.info/wp-content/uploads/IMG_20130714_211421-500x500.jpg http://www.dangrossman.info/wp-content/uploads/IMG_20130714_...
