The nice ones are almost too nice... Just changing one cable would be a major project to break the artistic bundle and then restore it back to aesthetic perfection!

Not even close to the same caliber, but my work isn't too bad.

The rear of the server cabinet could use some work though.

Much neater than mine, I can't get my 2 assistants to route cables properly, I am always going back and cleaning up after them.
I noticed the Watchguard Firewalls, I manage 20+ watchguard firewalls keeping everything connected.

Dang! That's a lot of firewalls. We really like the Watchguard products, and have been using them for over 10 years now. We purchased their SSL VPN box in late '06, which runs the Citrix Access Gateway. Unfortunately Citrix decided to get into the appliance market, and dropped all of their offerings to appliance vendors like Watchguard. So I am in the process of looking for a replacement. I might go with the Citrix box, as it will be the same setup and configuration, which would make life easier...and our current Watchguard version of it is really great for both IT and the end users.
I started with the firebox 1 that booted off of floppies, I worked for a VAR and that was the product they chose.
Now I just work as a IT Manager for a company with a few external vpns.
The Watchguards are the last thing I have to worry about, they just run, most of them are 5 to 7 years old.
