Your Mac Hardware Setup


Recommended Posts

Well ive been smoking everyday for about two years, i figure why the **** not im at uni and theres no real reason not too, sometimes I grow my own that way I dont even need to pay for it.

Not now though, im on my scheduled tolerance break :p

Back to the point of this thread though, sorry couldn't edit last post, I just moved into my new place so I will be taking some photo's of my new setup as soon as I get a hold of a camera, I have in-fact got a proper 'Workstation' like area now as opposed to the bed and couch :p

Hopefully later on tonight or tomorrow I will get a camera so I'll take some pics :)

Well as I said, here are the pictures of my new setup, I did have a 'workstation' area setup, but hated it, i like all my toys to be in the main area of the house, i dont even use the bedrooms :D

and yes, i am using a esky as my fridge, I didnt think of it tbh :p

For some reason I cant edit my posts, every time I tried lately it just comes up with a msgbox saying 'You dont have permission to edit that post' :/

Ah well, just a few notes I wanted to add, the photo's are **** :p I cant capture the mood lighting i got going on here with the piece of junk camera i got. I use the Bose Lifestyle system for movies, tv, and any other forms of music (parties etc), I use the Valve & Mordaunt Short system for good music, i got a monitor between the speakers (Infocus X1) but its not switched on, and i think thats about it :p

Dear God, this Bose console is so old!!! I know because my dad bought the same like 10 years ago and we still kickass with it :p! But IMO they have a better look than those today, and they still have the quality! (ok, they don't have 3 hundred billion connectors, but in a house, who cares?)

Edit : I wanted to show the virtual desktop of my Mac. here it is :

Water Bong bebeh! And nice set up as well!

Now you know how Neowin's foremost (are there others?) insane Mac Zealot likes to surf.

Pretty simple, clean, no clutter, lots of plants. iPod Touch is there as well.

Not seen in image is a Canon Powershot SD1000 (love it), and my trusty Motorola V551. Even though this little (amazingly durable) workhorse of a phone has never let me down, it'll be replaced by the iPhone when it arrives in Canada. I'll miss my little Moto, though. :(

Don't use Quick Edit.

Use the Full Edit to edit. Works for me whenever I get that problem. :yes:

Thanks :)

Yea, I think that one is actually about 16 years old, still works perfectly, but the quality sucks, i mean like absolutely terrible, there is such a massive gap between certain frequencies, on movies you can follow the entire dialog of the movie through the sub, dont think I've ever heard anyones voice that resembled a sub. :p

I only use it cause I hear playing movies etc. on valve amps wears the tubes hard.

Don't you get backache/neckache from leaning over with that setup?
he probably puts it on his lap

Yea I put it on my lap :p

I like your set up! Love the green and water, and white iMac! :)

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
    • Hey what's about the proton vpn firefox extension ? It's not working today
    • On what though? Not Ray Tracing.
    • Agreed, but now my muscle memory immediately creates a layer for each text portion, so editing is made a little easier.
    • Happy for him, it is one of the first apps I install on a new Windows machine, been using it for years!
