Post Your Mac Setup: Past & Present (Part 10)

[clownbaby]

This is my new set up. I need to find a way to manage all the wires and cords. I just haven't gotten around to it yet. I'm sure my desk won't stay this clean for long. At least now I have a picture to remember how clean it looked.

What's the background on the Macbook? I need it yesterday.

EDIT: Might as well post an update of my setup. Specs as follows:
15" uMBP, 2.66 GHz, 4 GB RAM, 128 GB SSD
14" iBook G4, 1.33 GHz, 768 MB RAM, 60 GB HDD

I love the terra cotta soldier!

Thanks everyone. He was correct, it's a Powerbook ;D

The monitor is a Dell 2408, one of the best monitors I've used to date. I was contemplating between the ACD and this and went with this. Extra USB ports, media card reader, and multiple ports (rather than just mini DP) convinced me to go with the Dell.

The stand is mStand (http://www.raindesigninc.com/mstand.html).

As for the wallpaper, you can download it here

Thanks! Looks awesome on my ACD.

I have the same model he has, except mine is a 37". I also have a 22" that is a similar model. As far as I'm concerned, Vizio is the best bang for your buck for an LCD these days. Not the best TV's in the world, but they are definitely the best in their price range.

IMO, the Dynex LCD T.Vs are the best bang for your buck, many inputs, good build quality, and good screen sizes.

I run off of a 22" LCD Dynex TV, I highly recommend them.

 

[rgarjr]

Yeah they are good TV's for what people pay for. Yeah this one is a 37" as well.

i have a 22" Insignia and it's awesome but my only complaint is the resolution for my PC (via VGA) is 1360x768, i don't know if that's because of my graphics card or that's the highest the PC input is for the TV.

Simple set up, MBP is my main computer and the iMac G4 is the "media" computer connected to surround sound system. The macbook usually just sits there unused

emac is now my guest computer in the extra room...

Nice! You have 2 of my favorite computers ever iMac g4 and eMac..

I also love the MBP with the backlit KB!

Hmmmm..... Is VGA the only output on your video card? It really depends on the make of the computer and the graphics card but it would be very hard to believe 1360 X 768 is the max resolution of the card. In fact it might be the max for your TV/Monitor have you checked

It's the highest resolution of the TV. 720p TVs allow you to have a resolution of 1366x768, and 1080p TVs allow a resolution of 1920x1080.

Granted it isn't an 'all Mac setup,' it encompasses a Mac and it is only one picture.

Setup isn't usually that crowded, that was just everything up there at once for the photo. But basically it is this:

-19" Dell LCD connected the the MacBook Air (1.6GHz Rev B with 64GB RunCore SSD), also the SuperDrive is up there.
-Wireless Keyboard and Magic Mouse for the Mac.
-iPhone 3G S (16GB) with the Apple iPhone 3G Dock.
-Compaq Mini NetBook with Microsoft Mobile Mouse 6000.
-Logitech Xbox 360 Remote (Controls my PC, both Xboxes, and the TV functionality itself).
-32" Dynex LCD TV/Monitor with the PC (Stats in my signature), with Razer Lycosa Keyboard and Razer Mamba Mouse.
-Dr. Dre Studio Beats on the PC monitor.
-2 Xbox 360s, the one that is visually modded is my hacked one that I play burned games on. (Subwoofer is beside them).
-The blue light on top of the PC tower is a Nintendo DS Lite with an R4 card for playing all my games (got about 2000 titles saved to my PC).
