I may actually install this on my Ubuntu box because there is no spotlight.

Hell yes! Thanks!

21.5' iMac 1TB hard drive 8gb Ram and my New 27' iMac i7 2TB hard drive and 8GB Ram

Your poor old obsolete 21" iMac has been demoted to "alarm clock" status... ouch. That's got to be hard on the poor fella's ego...

Check out Synergy KM. It'll let you use one keyboard and mouse for both your Macs.

Nice setup! It's not easy to set everything up when you don't have a wall behind your desk (at least for me! )
I'd would love to have a "old" mac as you (an iMac G4 or a eMac), but they're still quite pricy, so it's difficult for me to buy one of those

Why are you using an eMac if you have 3x Mac minis? 0.o

Why are you using an eMac if you have 3x Mac minis? 0.o

Its only on my desk , my eMac is matching so I put it on, my Mac mini is behind the main desk connected to a wall mounted monitor for my media centre, my other minis one is a server and the other is in the office room

Reduce desktop clutter

The desktop can be a great place to drop stuff, but because of the way OSXhandles desktop icons, putting stuff there can also slow your system down. The operating system treats each desktop icon just like a full-size Finder window—the icon takes up a chunk of memory, and the system has to track its position and size at all times. Drop enough files and folders on your desktop, and you may start to notice side effects (such as spinning beach balls) when you’re trying to do something as simple as open a new Finder window. Here’s one simple way to cut down on the clutter (and system drag) without losing that handy storage place: create a folder or two on your desktop (call them Need To Look At and Things To Do, for example), and then move all the items from your desktop into the new folders.

On today's Macs, doubt it is even an issue anymore.

On today's Macs, doubt it is even an issue anymore.

I suppose that's possible, I've never heard anything to the contrary though. Since I can't stand a computer Desktop full of clutter (real life is harder) I only keep a few things on the Desktop and usually only for short periods of time.

eMac's aint that pricy I only paid £90 for my 2005 1.42Ghz Model, off ebay which came with free delivery I though that was reasonable if I'm honest it runs Leopard quite well

not bad, I'll start looking for it! I've seen some cool tutorials on the internet on how to replace the original CRT with a LCD!
