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

[auero]

I love it; the form factor is very nice and tiny. This was an upgrade from my previous 120GB Western Digital Passport. That thing was super old and bulky, but it hung in there. I re-gifted it to my little brother and put about 25 Wii Games on there for his Wii that I hacked over Thanksgiving .

This was my old drive... SO ghetto.

I still have that one! Don't hate! It's one of my favorite ones. The new ones are fingerprint magnets!!

Your 4 Macs isn't enough for you?

Yeah well the MBP is awesome, so the macbook is never used... The iMac is simply a DVD and Music player... and I don't think I have turned the emac on in about three months... the iBook in my signature died two months ago! Really I only use one but I would like to have the mini to connect to my TV and use it as a media computer in my room! So, no those four are not enough!

My dirty setup right now, ha.

Still tryna fix it up and organize it a bit. MBP connected to my 32" Toshiba TV with a Rocketfish bluetooth keyboard (has both windows and mac command icons) a Logitech bluetooth mouse (soon Magic Mouse)

Love the speakers, but laying them on their side like that will seriously degrade their stereo image.

not true my friend, but thanks for sharing!

Nice. I like it. I just got rid of my MBP 2009 Aluminum for a Mini with the
same CPU speed, I then used the leftover cash to buy a 23" 1080P Acer
H233H monitor and I freaking love it. The monitor was only 180$ at Best Buy. It has VGA,Hdmi and DVi inputs. Had my xbox hooked to it for a bit and loved it.

I would go with either an Acer,Dell, or Samsung 23" or 24" options. Love
mine though. I think the display quality is comparable to Apple's own
displays. Very vivid and crisp colors.

You're comparing an IPS Panel with a TN Panel in case of your ACER!
Place a Cinema Display directly beside your ACER and you will see the difference.
Better viewing angle, better colors, better color stability, and more brightness. That's what you get from a IPS Panel.
If you can't justify the price of such a panel, go with a TN. Still good panels for the average user!

Why not plug it into the TV?

 

[ApplEngineer]

Thought it was time I posted my setup. Pretty simple.

 

[gr3nade]

Is that Twelve South's Bookarc?

yep, thats it!

it is a very nicely made product, excellent quality, and different size inserts for different macbooks.

I got my safe capsule (time capsule expansion) from http://www.timelinedigitalinc.com/safe-capsule-with-40tb-20tb-made-apple-time-capsule-p-864.html

and I finally saved up enough for the latest Mac Pro 2.66 Quard-Core Xeon but I feel my older 8-core 2.88 (mac PRo 2008) is faster.
Can anyone tell me why?

MacBook Pro 17" 2.5GHz Early 2008 model with Death Card (Nvidia 8600M GT 512MB) -

If you are 100% sure the card is dead, why don't you try to contact apple about it?

That 17" MBP is a lovely piece of equipment.

Congratulations on the new computers! I'm more interested in the room though; very classy and elegant decoration.

ive seen the 27" imac in the store, you cant really tell how big it is until you see it in person. but your picture is the first one that actually shows how big it really is

What kind of notebook stand is that?
