Your Mac Hardware Setup


Recommended Posts

Here's my iMac:

im000108621.jpg.xs.jpg

Loving every minute of it.

what size? and wouldn't it be more comfortable if you took out the stand (looks a bit high)?

i already posted that answer (its in the mac hardware show your desktop), but no...i didn't. i always go through memoryamerica for my ram because they are the lowest price and with my company i run i get an even better deal. they retail their 800mhz ecc-fb ram @ ABOUT $60 a gig. macsales.com isn't bad at about $65 a gig.

i didn't even notice the sig was that big i've seen people with pictures and letters that were as big or bigger.

the new sig looks better anyway

OOOO lovely :D specs ? :D

Sure is!

Its the high end 20" of the older iMac range, with an extra 2GB stick of Ram totaling to 3GB.

They were clearing out the old models for real cheap at my work, and thought it would be better value getting the old high end model over the new low end model.

Already whored mine out in the general hardware thread but might as well do it in here too. Really happy with it so far :)

Specs as per my signature :) On the desk is also my Sennheiser wireless phones, a set of better quality BeyerDynamic wired headphones for when i'm at my desk and my Seagate Freeagent 320GB drive which I use for Time Machine.

Holy crap

What exactly will you be working on with that beast?

I needed a total of three. One on each side (1 & 2), plus an extra one to support the curve (3).

I love that black mat you have at the round of your desk.

Is there one for a straight edge desk? I really like it and im trying to find one but I can't seem to find it.

    • I gave up on browser ad-blocking extensions a few years ago, replaced them with Adguard. Not perfect but overhaul is a nice app that does the job on both Windows and Android with the respective versions.

    • "Of course the easiest solution is to switch to uBlock Origin Lite if you want to remain on Chrome, as it is MV3-based, but from our experience, uBO Lite does not seem to be as good as the original non-Lite version" In my experience uBlock Origin Lite does the job for normal everday home users. When they kill that we get to watch Firefox and Brave get a boost in user market share.
    • Block by DNS ad blocker! I dare you! I will even layer unlock Origin, on top of my internal DNS, if I need to and I don’t even block ads today (I really should but this type of behavior makes me angry). I suppose I could also just be lazy, and add the flags myself, back to each release (it wouldn’t be that difficult).
    • Wonder what MPs have ties to these privacy/verification/data harvesting companies that are going to step in this time. Last time under the Tories half the cabinet had fingers in the pies, heck even the PM and his wife at the time was working for silicon valley, probably made a fortune.
