No more iMac and MacBook?

Still VERY nice set up man.

Nope, moved both of these off the table to make way for a larger purchase, the Mac Pro.

Where did you get those lamps? Those are awesome!

I bought these lamps at a place called "Lighting Direct" in New Zealand. I'm not too sure if they are available overseas, best bet would be to try this designer furniture store. http://dwr.com/

I believe that is a logitec keyboard, but how do you get around the apple/windows keys and the other slight differences? Otherwise a dream setup.

The included software allows me to map the keys, this is one amazing keyboard.

Glenn, what do you do for a living?

Once again, I've updated my setup. Replaced uncomfortable Wireless Apple Mouse with Logitech MX Revolution, new Apple Wireless Keyboard w/ iSkin, 20" Apple Cinema Display (Beautiful!).

Amen. I'm 19, going into my second year of college, and I have a Macbook. Seriously, why would anybody need more? :confused:

Amen. All i had was a crappy dell dimension and a 17" lcd screen in high school, now i have a Macbook going into my sophomore year in college. I was thinking about getting an iPhone, because they look sweet, but I couldn't justify spending 600+ on a smartphone before i actually needed one. Seriously, does anyone in here have a job that they need to be connected to 24/7? PC Repair? Lawn Mowing? An iPod-phone sounds pretty sweet, but until i get a high-powered job, pen and paper replace the pda function really cheaply, and spending that kind of money on what's essentially a glorified ipod nano, i just don't see the point. So seriously guys, there's got to be better things to spend your money on, even if you are buying all this stuff yourself. Don't be a workaholic at 15. save up for a badass car, take girls out on dates, start saving for retirement, whatever. There's gotta be a million things out there that hold their value better than computers.
 
finally got arround to posting my setup lol

and yes its a little messy

QQ

EDIT

So i decided now is as good time as ever to clean it up a bit

second pic is of it clean :p

At a closer glance you see this:

On this desk you see the following:
-1 macbook (1.83 ghz with 2 gb ram)
-1 Dell 19" flat pannel monitor (extended from the macbook)
-Under the macbook is a chillpad and a home made iCurve
-There is also a Logictech usb mic (used for ichat and skype, built it mic pics up the fans really bad)
- Mighty mouse and apple wired keyboard
-Baringer xenyx 802 4 channel mixer for my recording (i just do acoustic stuff):

Behind the yamaha monitor we find the lacie 250gb firewire external harddrive:

Macmini 1.25 with 512 mRam and a 17" benq monitor its got a microsoft (ew) keyboard and a funky 7 light mouse.
 
wow, lol I just noticed that :eek:
I heard rumors about this happening, but never saw any proof or pics, Hmmm...
Is that covered under warranty? (I am getting an MB soon, and don't want that to be permanent)

Yea i know... apple store is 2 hours away, and i cant afford to not have my computer for the 2 days it would take for me to get it back... i brought it to a non apple store, who was a authorized tech store for apple 4 months ago, but they still havent gotten the part... i dont think they understood what i wanted done...

yes its covered under warrenty, but even if you dont have warrenty, it was a recall item, so they will fix it for free. no worries on the new MB's, they fixed the problem so it ddoesnt happen on the new ones.
 
Yes but you're forgetting that as teenagers @ home, we don't have any outgoings or things to spend money on, other than phone bills and other small things. Of course we wouldn't be able to afford things like this if we lived on our own/had loads of outgoings.


  • I don't agree. Some teens have to pay for everything (car, insurance, gas- even rent) while some literally have to pay for NOTHING.

  • when people post there $8,000 setups here and say "i have my own web-design business" im reluctant to believe them .that doesn't mean they're lying... i personally am just reluctant to believe them.

I think a better question is, why do you care so much?

1. I'm not old enough to drive yet.
2. Everything is covered under house insurance at the moment bar my laptop, iPod and phone, which I insure out of my own money.
3. I don't have to pay rent, my parents bought the house and we own it.
 
Oh noes! Some people can afford things, while others cant, lets berate them for it!

Stop being so bloody communist about everything. If some people have monster setups, what does it matter? If it makes them happy then all power to them. If your set up makes you happy, why should you care what others have? And if you aren't happy with your set up, do something about it.

Just quit your bloody whinging
 
Guy's come on and just give it up before we end up in the deep maelstrom of the recurring debate about teens with nice gadgets.
 
It's just I do kinda get irritated that people think we shouldn't be allowed nice things because we're young(er), and we should be charged when our parents decide not to charge us.
