I hate all you people. I love the Apple Cinema displays, but I think the Mini is underpowered for what I'll be doing, and the MacPro is OTT. I love the iMac, but I'd kill for an ACD!

Don't you have a MBP? Do what I'm doing and get a 23" ACD powered by the MBP. That is until I graduate and buy my MacPro :)

Yeh but I want to get a desktop really. The idea is I can leave it chugging away at home with a BitTorrent client open or rendering an animation etc... while I've got my MacBook Pro in school with me etc...

That's why its a step process for me. I'm gonna have my 23" ACD and MBP until I finish school in a year. Then I'm going to buy my Mac Pro in a year when I still have my student discount. With 3 year applecare on the monitor, I'll still have it for a solid 2 years. Killy - Bang and Olufsen speakers would be sick (I have the A8 headphones, got them in London) but come on...ACD! :D

Sorry about the mess - this is my temp office while the real one is getting renovated.

I think I got it from Staples. Looked all over for something that was deep and wide. I don't do keyboard pullouts, so that went in the trash. I've had this desk for over two years and it works well for me.

mustard – any chance you can post a high-res of that set up? I have slight OCD for 30" ACDs.
