The Finishing Touch!


Recommended Posts

Well my new powerbook is the pooh. My G5 is all that I hoped it could be! My iPod saved my mom from insanity in the hospital this week. And today I broke down and got the finishing touch...

I got the 23" HD Cinema Display.....

The horrible thing is I am moving on Saturday so my whole lab is packed away :blush:

I will post pics Saturday or Sunday of the whole setup. Thanks for all the great advice.

Hey SFNE - Buy the logitech because it works really well with our powerbook.

Hardly. I'm just curious what he is using all these toys for.

I would use my G5 as my main computer, and when I need to go somewhere like a conference, I load whatever Keynote presentations, movie files, etc. that I need and go. And the iPod, well, that's a luxury. :p

I mainly use the powerbook for work. I am a network administrator for Atomic Park. The G5 and cinema display are the main family computer. It also doubles as our "digital picture frame". I do some minimal gaming with it, but I am so used to large display areas. At work I use 2 19" crt's, on my windows gaming machine I have 2 18.2" flat panels so I think this is a good fit. I also spend alot of time working from home so I need as much display area as possible when I am remoting into our web servers etc..

One thing I have noticed is that Apple equipment holds its value like an autopgraphed pair of halle berry's panties! I would rather invest in it, and know I am going to get 80% and up if I decide to sell it. PC hardware on the other hand is like a car you loose %40 value on the first boot lol....

I sacrificed a buttload of my windows systems, and other displays and equipment in general to russle up the dough for all this stuff. I had 2 choices new car, or all my new toys, apple won...
