Your Mac Hardware Setup


Recommended Posts

I recently purchased an iMac 27 inch ... i5 Quad Core 2.8ghz. 4gb Ram (will be upgrading to 8gb this coming few weeks). 1tb Hard Drive. Radeon HD 5750 (1tb) Graphics card. I got it with the Magic Mouse, which I hated at first, but now love (after installing Magic Prefs!).

I LOVE this thing! :D I've used Windows computers since ... well ... I started on DOS 5 on an Amstrad 1512, and have been on DOS and then Windows PC's literally for 26 years now (I'm 32), but I swear, I'll never buy another Windows PC again. This has opened my eyes. I used to be a serious Apple hater too. lol

Slightly Updated Hardware - I'll grab new photos in a bit!

15" MacBook Pro

2.66Ghz Core i7

4GB RAM (8GB on order)

120GB OCZ Vertex 2

500GB Second Drive (No ODD)

GeForce GT 330M 512MB

24" iMac

2.8GHz Core2Extreme

3GB RAM

500GB HDD

ATI Radeon 2600XT

32GB Wifi+3G iPad

Self explanatory :)

Here's mine. Only fairly recently bought an iMac (and I absolutely love it). I won't go as far as saying I'll always use a mac, because I used to think I'd never use another browser except for Firefox and now I use Chrome..

My iPhone would be in its dock but I used it to take the pic

I think it's more about the set-up than the Apple hardware.

Indeed, and posting a bunch of product names and some specs doesn't tell a lot about your set-up, at least not to me, I can imagine quite a few more think of a picture of your desktop/workspace one you say set-up and not some specs. :)

It's been some time and while not much ... well nothing... has changed on the hardware-side (same old late-2009-MacBook Pro 13", MagicMouse, same Logitech Z4 speakers...) I moved to a new apartment, got a new desk and some new lamps. Oh and the TV... I don't actually watch TV... It's more like some accessory that looks nice because it's so old. I don't even know if it still works, has been in my new place when I moved in, didn't even turn it on once...

And oh yeah, it actually looks like that. I like to keep things clean and organized.

    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.
    • That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine,
