That is amazing. How did you do that?

Pulled it completely to bits, and gave them to a friend who paints cars :D
Its got clearcoat ontop of the black paint, so its pretty much as shiny as a car.

And to the guy who said i dont have Applecare - Who Cares? I fix Apples at work so whos going to tell me off that I voided the warranty :p

My iBook has no permanent home; it just moves about the house.

Photo coming soon.

And yes, that is a floppy drive to the left of my iPod. Don't laugh.

Whoa, awesome. So, with the screen spanning hack, you can actually get an external display running at a different res to the standard 1024*768 of the iBook? And you can make that res. an HD res? I will have to look into this, very cool.

Hey...what's wrong with floppies?? I use them all the time, but I go to a school where bringing a burnt cd, or installing any hardware will suspend you from the computers...and they block all email websites...options are limited. Other than their cirppling 1.4mb size for as big as they are, unbarably slow read/write, and constant failure to work..what's wrong with them? :p

Tell your lame school to get with the 21st century.
Use a USB memory stick. Don't want people to install software, use administrator passwords.

Do they also teach you how to use an abacus?

Heres mine:

iBookSetup.jpg


Theres the HP PSC 1350 in the corner (if you can see it), which I use all the time, and got it for only £60 due to an apple offer.

All I need now is a 4-port USB hub, as the iPod Shuffle is covering the other one!!

Sorry about the picture quality, I took it on my phone so I didnt have to resize it.

I have same desktop background on my iBook...it's pretty slick.

Mike

Yep, it's definitely one of my favorites!

Have you seen the orange one that is made by the same artist (similar style, sunset + planets)? It's really cool. But I don't use it at home; it would cause an orange overload :p

Yup, they taught us that, considering they actually blocked Calculator on the computer, as well as almost every other program except office and IE. At least we're using XP, that's a plus :rolleyes:

Can't use a memory stick, like I said, they blocked installing any hardware

Is that a LightScribe drive on the right? Is it any good?

Yes, it's a Lacie d2 16x Dual Layer LightScribe DVD/RW. The dual layer is awesome, and the drive is very fast, but I don't like the LightScribe. The discs are too expensive / hard to find and it takes more than twice as long to burn.
