me too....
Hey, I want to add my two cents to this...
Well, here is my temporary work space. I say temporary because the Dell will soon be replaced by a PowerMac! Yay for me.
Okay, so what you see here is a collection of pics of my iBook set up as it usually is (mind you though that I cleared my desk off for these pics). The iBook is a 14in g3, 700mgz, with 192mb ram, a combo drive, and a 30gb hd, it has no airport so I have to tether it to my router which you can see is in a mess right now... In the background (or on the desk however you wish to look at it), is my PIII 550mhz, 512mb ram, DVD+-R/RW, zip 100, soundblaster audigy 2 ZS platinum, 12gb and 80 gb hds. The monitor is a dell/sony trinitron with a whole bunch a stickers and crap on it. The three speakers are the front speakers for my 5.1 set-up, and the plaque is just cool even though it is not up (got it when I had a better TV set up, now that my tv doesn't even have real pro logic, my pc gets it). To the left of the monitor is my atomic clock/thermometer, and behind that is my four port powered USB hub with a four port mini USB pluged into that (with now only a card reader for my canon 20d). To the right of the monitor is the tablet and my bamboo plant pot. The weird thing on top of the tower is a gift I was given once (it is officially called a mini longlegs as it is a short version of a series of similer design only taller and with longer legs...). The scanner is not hooked up yet cause I rarely use it for anything since I've gone digital.
Yes, my room is dark, and no I never use the dell any more since getting the ibook last month (used). Though not really my first mac, it is my first mac, and either the first or second computer I have bought... The dell isn't really mine kind of borrowing it for an extended time. The first computer I bought was an eMac for, at the time, my fiancee. Anyway, I don't get to used the eMac cause she took it after she left me... oh well, at least our son is adorable. I have used macs since as long as I can remember, unfortunitly got stuck with the dell though a while back (like 6 years ago). OSX really is a great OS compared to XP Home, I wonder why microsoft doesn't just port it (ha, just kidding).
Well, I know this really doesn't show of the iBook much, the dell and CRT really are monsterous next to the iBook, but I must say, that the iBook has been getting so much more love then the dell these days. In fact, now that my stupid online math class that only works on a PC with IE is over (failed unfortunitly), the only thing the dell even gets turned on for is to play music using iTunes (another great apple software product). It takes to much time to turn the dell on; like into the minutes, as in press power, go to the bathroom, the kitchen for a snack, check the mailbox, sit down, wait another couple minutes... I once timed it at over 8 minutes, then again ot only has like 1 GB left between the two HD's.
I just now noticed that my 40GB iPod Photo is not in the picture, infact neither is the dock or any of the cabling. Well that just goes to show how huridly I cleared off the desk....
