@leonardatlkart
Why thank you professor. You know my address, and I’m sure I’ll be able to put that cigar to good use!

btw: one of the Monet Saint-Lazare paintings usually hangs at the Fogg Museum at Harvard, but it just closed for five years of rennovations.

@ Dancing Panda and mommadukes

Though not exactly right I must declare you both winners.

Mommadukes I must say your impressionism pixelation comparison was inspired. Dancing Panda had the wording that was closest to what I was looking for.

The train at the Saint-Lazare station and Nick’s new monitor both represent the latest in high technology for their respective times. Both seemed startlingly futuristic when they first appeared.

Monet was being fairly radical in setting up his easel in the train station to paint it.

Would both of you please send me your addresses so I can send your prizes.

@ Dad of Cakes

I’ll give it a go: 1) Saint-Lazare Train Station, France. 2) The monitor and the train each represent the technology of their time. Like the larger LCD monitor (#2 of 3), Monet’s painting depicted the train station #2 of 3 (I think it was also painting #2 of 12?). The separate Steam window on the desktop is similar to that of the boxed frame of the train in a window-like foreground. The Steam window mixes & blends with the background clouds of the desktop image similar Monet’s blending of the smoke and steam of the train with the clouds and sky in the background.

I think that chair’s twin brother is in my office! Want to trade for that 17″ monitor?

Trains and LCDs, impressionism and pixelation … radically transforming the landscapes of their respective centuries.

What have you been eating to make the chair like that? – Love the multi screens – you can’t have too many.

You could consolidate those two keyboards and mice into one of each with Synergy. It makes working on multiple machines so much easier.
