Uses

This is a collated list of all the software, hardware and office equipment I use on a daily basis

Hardware

I run two computers in parallel. I need to be using a Mac of some description in order to create and publish iOS mobile apps, so I have a Macbook Pro. I also have a Windows 10 Desktop PC that has a bit more grunt and I mostly use it for C#/.NET specific development. Some of this can be done on the Macbook using Mono, but I prefer to code in Windows for these times. The KVM switch comes in really handy here as it allows me to connect the peripherals to a central hub and just click a button to switch between the Macbook and the PC.
