Now use an image_map to infinitely recurse the image in the monitor ;-)
Reminds me of those wire sculptures made out of old junk like nuts and bolts
and sheet metal.

Just something about a computer sitting on the floor that doesn't fit, at least
with the guy standing there it looks like it's on the floor.  Well, it's kind of
like he just unboxed it though and is setting it up.  I always do it that way so
I don't have to pull it all out from behind a desk if something fails to go
right.
Hope you at least put a command line prompt on the screen.

IRL, the command prompt is on the collar of 
his robe that I don't think I will be able to do.
The prompt reads "C:\CD\Wizzard". The floor is
going to be a stone platform. And the computer is
going to be finished.

That reflection in the monitor makes it look like he's
really glad to see you.

I hate to say it, but Simon is not a family man.
I just looked at the posted image and can safely
say that anything you see in the reflection is
mostly your imagination.

Coming along nicely.  Is that a trackball built into the keyboard?  If so, why
the mouse then?  Also looks to be a Trinitron flat screen monitor there.

The keyboard is unfinished. So there is no trackball.
Not a number pad, enter key, shift keys, tab key, or caps
lock either. The monitor glass is just a part of a sphere
scaled <1,15,15> and a standard glass texture.

By the power of Mouse and Disk, I call thee forth!
By the power of Keyboard and RAM, I call thee forth!
By the power of Bit and Byte, I call thee forth!
By the power of Net and Baud, I call thee forth!

And lo, through darkness and fog, trial and travail,
smoke and mirrors, the request appears.
