+# Setup
+
+See [personal infrastructure](../personal_infra) for things I run on servers.
+
+## Workstation hardware
+
+I have two Windows machines; a pre-built gaming tower for gaming (connected to a TV) and a small Celeron PC in another location so that I always have some Windows PC physically available.
+
+Besides my employer's workstations, I do most of my computing from two desktop computers in each location.
+
+I have an old ThinkPad for tests, and a slow ChromeBook tablet with detachable keyboard.
+
+## Software
+
+I tend to use LTS Linux distributions.
+Currently I use Debian Stable, for some time I used CentOS.
+
+I use GNOME with [PaperWM](https://github.com/paperwm/PaperWM).

+I use Firefox with LanguageTool, Bitwarden and NoScript.
