Your Mac Hardware Setup

Nothing spectacular.

Very nice.

Where can I get a notebook stand like that? Seems to complement you Macbook Pro very well.

Couldn't edit my post, by how much do they increase post editing for subscribers ..

Anyway heres a couple more of the rest of my living room, kinda counts as my desktop, kinda .. Or maybe not, but im bored :p

The big junk in the middle with the TV and all that useless junk is going to get thrown out soon as I decide to put up the projector screen etc.

and my audio equipment, sitting in the sweet-spot of this beast enjoying a nice joint is enough to put me into a surrealistic dreamlike state (the stereo, not the j, although that just helps), I feel like im there when listening and quiet frankly almost cream myself each time :p

Not talking about the Bose system :x

is that a time machine?

Perfect! Thank you.

[MasterC]

Perfect! Thank you.

Sure :) I must warn you though. I've heard of people having their laptops sliding off the stand and crashing onto the desk. Now, I think that could be attributed to the fact that they put it on wrong, like having it hang too far off the edge. But, as long as you're careful, it should work out fine. If you happen to purchase it, I think a review is in order! :p

^ I have a Griffin Elevator (a.k.a. iCurve 2) and I can say that it does what it says on the tin. It has a kind of foamy pad on the top of the two arms, so that your laptop can't slide off accidentally (as it could do on the original iCurve.)

@KeR:

how goes the change? You sacrificed a whole lot of screen space + a second mac for that =O

It's an old timey vacuum tube stereo thing.

well I am saving up for a Cinema Display...still debating whether to get a old one or one of the newer ones, to be hones prices are a bit ridiculous.

I would recommend a Pioneer KUROS display

Hey Ker, which iMac is that??

That's the one Apple product that's never really convinced me. The only Apple display I've ever bought was my old 14-inch Apple VGA monitor that came with my PowerPC 6100/60 back in June 1994. That thing lasted for 8 years.

There are so many beautiful displays out there for a far better price.

Looks like an amplifier with lamps. Awesome quality most of the time.

[KeR]

24" iMac.

[instant.human]

Looks like an amplifier with tubes. Awesome quality most of the time.

=) so warm and refined... =)

I also thought about going for a MacBook from an iMac, I was ready to sell it and everything, but... I realized I need my desktop. The laptop will be for school. I mean, I love my 24" and every single aspect of it.

When a new iMac with 4 cores will be out (which means probably in a year), I'll buy it and it'll replace my white iMac from late 2006 that I have here :)

I'm gonna go for 4GB of memory, 1TB of hard drive, 4 cores, and the best graphics card available, so I'll need a good job next summer ;) will try for a pre-engineer job.

24" iMac.

You sold that for an MBP??!!?!? :o

You never sounded like a smart ass. You corrected me and that's what you should do:):)

I sold my iMac and MacBook Air for a MacBook Pro, and I still had to add money :) but I did go with the top of the line configuration.

wow, was well worth it, i reckon.

[sanctified Veteran]

Specially since the MBP screen is a lot better for design, portable and just damn durable.
