Everyone 18 & Under Post Your Setups

[Josias]

So, I finally got myself to take a pic after I moved my desk and got my oh so Mighty Bluetooth Mouse. So, here is my setup. I will by the way fix the wires under the desk, and probably also remove that ugly bookcase, with books I read when I was 5 years
Setup:

Accessories:

Explanation:
In the first pic we see a BT Mighty Mouse on a random blue mousemat, next to my MacBook. We also see a Canon S330 Photo Printer, and a random lamp. The little grey thing is the tag that sits on Converse All Star shoes when you buy them. I think it looks good in real life having it there.
In the second pic we see a cloth, 3 plectrums, the little plastic thingy that protects the powerplug when not in use, my iPod headphones and of course the Apple Remote.

DUDE INCREDIBLE SETUP!

Toronto native here too.
> What instruments do you play?

Also .... since I'm so close to getting a Mac (I'm not 18, much older - kid at heart + kids of my own - but looking at setups as in inspiration), can anyone tell me what is the minimum CPU @ Mhz needed to run Garageband? I cannot find it on Apples site ... just a tour of Garageband 3.

Thanks

> Happy Birthday.

It ran fine on my old eMac with a 700 MHz G4, but I recommend G4 1.5GHz+ for any serious work with it.

@dsharits & eXan

Many MANY thanks for your help & suggestions. Both of you have tought me that parents & others older can learn a few things & also be given a helping hand ... if only older guys like myself take a breather & stop being stubborn, lol.

Many thanks ( kids were made at me tonight; forbidden cartoon show. Oh well, restriction is lifted and tomorrow & next Friday they'll get to enjoy FRIDAY NIGHTS).

works for me.
the amp sounds good as long as you keep the eq flat.

 

[mattrud]

I pulled the monitor back in from the studio.

Love the setup. You have a room similar to mine.

Oh yeah, and we both own the best speakers for $50.

 

[mattrud]

I'll post my setup sometime soon, once I get my iCurve and wireless keyboard and mouse.

As of right now, it's just a desk and macbook.

not that there is anything wrong with that

 

[ghall]

The only decent picture I have of my MacBook Pro, right after starting it up for the first time.

Yet again, I have moved stuff round. I'm gonna get a new desk soon, so it will all change again

I know the 250gb is $199.. I almost got one but went for the Porsche Lacie that was $60 cheaper.
