Your Mac Hardware Setup

[ultimate99]

trekkie: that's a nice monitor, which model?

[TogaForComfort]

No Picks at the mo, But I have a 24" iMac in the bedroom, a Mac Pro with 8TB of HD space and 10GB of RAM in the front room. (serving Media and converting media between various formats) 17" 1st gen MacBook Pro for round the house and a 15" Late 2008 Macbook Pro for Work.

I love the fact some people have G4 towers and the Cinema diaplays still going. Mine all died off a while ago or where upgraded, but they are my favorite Apple machines. Still have a few at work.

Yeah, its a pretty nice monitor for TN panel ;)

It's the Dell P2210. Still waiting on my Mini Displayport -> Displayport cable so I can get off VGA...

That dell Monitor has a beautiful stand and bezel. I have 3 of their Monitors myself and most Dell monitors just look fantastic.

Nice, you sure do have a lot of storage! Do you use all that:p:p

At some Point or another yes lol

the PNY thumb sticks are mostly for Windows bootable apps and or portable apps

The 320gb WD portable i mostly use with my PS3

the 500GB older WD used to be a DVR extender for my Dish-network box

until bootcamp 3.0 with SL the time capsule used to be my main way of transferring large files from Mac to windows and back

I use which ever drive is most empty at the time for testing OS's mac,ubuntu,windows and i used the 1TB drive to test how the SL upgrade Process was going to go before i did it to me real system drive

I never had a white iMac, my last one was a 24-inch aluminium iMac (Early 2008, 3.06 GHz) :laugh:

But thanks! And yeah, it did cost a fair amount. Oh well. :p

I own two of them and I know that they do set you back but are worth EVERY penny :)

Love you setup btw. It's nice and clean. I wish I could have a setup like that but I own my own business and my home office is as organized as I can get it but it still feels out of whack with reports and financial statements, etc.. on the desk. Not to mention all the estimates, stationary, pens, calculatgors, post-its, etc... It's a mess...but an organized mess...BUT still a mess. lol.

[.Neo]

I'll let you in on a little secret, but be sure not to tell anyone else! :shiftyninja: ...My desk usually only looks like that after vacuuming the room. You don't want to see the inside of the cabinet standing underneath my printer. :laugh:

Thanks btw!

I used to be the type that tried to make my room like a furniture store catalogue. But I've grown to realise that it's so unrealistic. I have stuff. I use stuff. And to me, this is what I call perfect imperfection: This is my setup, and soon to include a 24" iMac as well.

Don't worry, my guess is that all the picture perfect photo we see here are only that, perfect for a picture. The mess comes right back after. Unless the person is a clean freak....

[what]

A desk without clutter is like a dog with a dry nose.

No one has a new iMac to post? ;)

[.Neo]

It's freaking me out that my Magic Mouse still hasn't shipped yet. It says "Ships within 5-7 days" since last Tuesday... What the hell?!
