Your Mac Hardware Setup


Recommended Posts

Here is a snap of my Powermac G4 1.25GHz, with 512MB of RAM.

Just running a crappy generic 19" monitor through the DV convertor - the monitor has damage on the side after my boss dropped it whilst unloading them this year - save sending it back, I just volunteered to use it as the damage is only to the casing.

Loving this mac.. its awesome!

nobody asked for your opinion nor do any mac users care

this IS NOT the "post your opinions on why PC's are better then mac thread" and you are totaly off topic

i have had well enough of you PC fanboys comming in here and not contrubting anything usefull to these threads

do you see the mac users here running into the PC hardware section and posting "PCs suck" in every other thread? posts such as this are starting to make the mac section a very unpleasurable place to be as PC users have to come in and turn every thread and turn it into a PC vs Mac discussion, and i feel something should be done

even though i dont use macs, and i dont have a liking for macs i have this to say:

SHUT UP.

you dont need to come trolling through these forums acting hard, all these people do is run macs and share their experiance with them. i just come through here to gaze at some of the fiine stuff these people run. we dont need asshats like you running though being an ######

crawl back to the dell gutter you came from, moron

and people, nice desks

ok shut up you ****in n00b...each computer has there own place, ok?and I owned once a performa too, with OS7, and I can tell you macs are NOTHING like that anymore.

so just shutup before you open your mouth next time, please. ;)

I just wouldn't troll/brag about owning the cheapest dell consumer desktop: diminsion 2400. It really shows where your priorities in life are (I'll leave you to make your own conclussions about education, finacial situation, living arrangements, and sexual preferences) - but if we could do that in private messages or something, that would keep this thread from being destroyed.

But we're way off topic now.

Would posting pictures of your apple notebook in places other than your desk be appropriate?

I use my ibook almost exclusively infront of the fireplace or in my back yard and my powerbook is often at the olympic plaza or the gardens - much more beautiful and vibrant places than I have in my home.

Might make for some interesting photos to compliment the ones of people's offices/rooms.

sorry guys.. i musta been hgih on sumfin at the time :wacko:

thats what u get from me l8 at night.. :wacko:

I actually dont mind the G5s to tell you the truth... I am actually eyeing a G5 on eBay.

Once again.. sorry for the post :)

you say it after a bunch of people come down on you :rolleyes:

Well... lets get back on topic here... and I promised a few pages back to post my desktop...

Got my iBook yesterday, here are some pics... as you can see, they're in the living room, because honestly, why should I sit at a desk when I have AirPort networking and a good 3 hour charge on my battery? :p

    • Halo: Campaign Evolved is out next month with new prequel missions by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft offered a look at the upcoming Halo: Combat Evolved remake at the Xbox Games Showcase today. The Halo Studios-developed title is not only getting a fully remade campaign, but also new content in the form of a fresh story arc featuring Sgt. Johnson. Fans don't have to wait long, either, as Halo: Campaign Evolved is releasing next month. The new content joining the original campaign consists of three new missions that have the name "Operation: METEORITE" attached to the full project. Aside from ground-based combat, space missions are also included here. These prequel missions will take players to events set before the original campaign, where the Master Chief and Sgt. Johnson duo team up for a clandestine UNSC operation aboard a Covenant research vessel. The studio says that the story for these missions was written in collaboration with award-winning sci-fi author Troy Denning. "Operation: METEORITE gives players a chance to expand their experience with new locations, new enemy variants, more weapons from across the Halo series, and new ways to play within the Halo sandbox, all while getting to spend more time with beloved characters and witness a new event that adds to the legacy of their heroic history," adds Halo Studios. Today's new trailer showed off the game in action, including the new missions. Catch it below. Halo Campaign Evolved is coming out on July 28, 2026. It will be available across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 price tag. A digital premium edition will also be available for $69.99, offering five days of early access, extra in-game skins, and a digital art collection. A $199.99 physical Collector's Edition is also incoming, bringing a Master Chief statue, a Cortana chip, a Steelbook case, and more.
    • To give context to everybody, I bought about 2 sets of RAM, ddr4, 3200, 64 gb, 2 years ago. It costed me 150 usd for each set. If you buy RAM now you only incentivate companies to sell you expensive stuff, as Nvidia did.
    • KillerPDF 1.4.2 by Razvan Serea KillerPDF is a lightweight, portable PDF editor for Windows built for users who want full control without subscriptions, installers, or telemetry. It runs as a single executable, making it ideal for USB use and field work. You can view PDFs with smooth PDFium rendering, navigate quickly with thumbnails, zoom, and shortcuts, and reorganize pages using drag-and-drop. It supports merging multiple PDFs, splitting documents, and extracting selected pages. KillerPDF also allows inline text editing with font matching to preserve the original layout, plus annotations like text boxes, freehand drawing, highlights, and reusable signatures. You can search full text, copy content easily, and print documents with flattened annotations. Designed as a free and open alternative to bloated PDF tools, it works fully offline on Windows 10/11 x64. No runtimes install. Everything needed is inside the EXE (targets .NET Framework 4.8, which ships with every supported Windows release). KillerPDF key features: High-quality PDF rendering via PDFium Edit PDF text inline (double-click to modify text) Page thumbnails and fast navigation with zoom and shortcuts Merge multiple PDFs into one Split PDFs and extract selected pages Drag-and-drop page reordering Font matching to preserve original document appearance Text boxes for notes Freehand drawing tools Highlight overlays with adjustable color, size, opacity Undo actions and clear per-page annotations Create, draw, and save reusable signatures Click-to-place signatures anywhere Full-text search with highlighted results Drag-select or Ctrl+A to copy text Print with annotations flattened Portable single-file app (~10 MB) No installer, no admin rights required No account, no telemetry KillerPDF 1.4.2 changelog: What's new PDF form filling. Interactive PDF forms now render their fields (text inputs, checkboxes, radio buttons) as live controls. Fill them in directly and save — field values are written back into the PDF. PDF outline (bookmark) navigation. A new OUTLINES tab in the sidebar displays the document's bookmark tree. Click any entry to jump to that page. The sidebar auto-fits its width to the longest entry on open and can be dragged wider; switching back to PAGES snaps to the pages-mode width. Fixed Page rotation no longer reverts after saving. Rotations applied via the sidebar context menu now persist correctly through the save pipeline. Copied text words were out of order on PDFs where glyphs are stored in non-reading order (Issue #66). Text extraction now sorts words by position and uses a dynamic line-grouping threshold so both drag-select and Select All produce correctly ordered output. PDFs with malformed or non-standard XRef tables now open in read-only mode instead of showing "Invalid entry in XRef table" and failing entirely.
