Post Your Mac Setup: Past & Present (Part 12)

[petrucci666]

thank you, you're a good observer

Anyway, I've found it in a local store and it was an incredible deal: I've paid 50€ for it, while the suggested retail price is 90€!

Wow that is a pretty good price/discount! Are they still available there? I live in Croatia so I might be able to get one if they're still available. Does the store you bought it in have a website?


Thanks!

More crappy iPhone pictures, I need to take pictures during the day, not at night.

Before with old $30 Walmart desk:

New desk and chair with crappy LG Monitor that went back the next day:

Today, just got the cinema display (I usually put my iPhone in the dock but I used it to take the pictures):

Lucky Mr G4! Hope he still gets used!

Never heard of said Aegos, how area they?

I read lots of reviews and they seem very capable and beat the logitechs. (plus they are simple - no controller etc - just sub and two satellites). About £120 over here so they are on my shopping list.

They look pretty nice! Let's hope they sound as good.

that's impressive!

hey guys... fixed the images....

don't be too impressed lol... its a basic setup for a DJ.... I personally don't dj in public 'yet'... this is actually my first DJ setup ever... took me a couple weeks to put it together.... but if anything its a basic... well not basic but an industry standard type of DJ setup....

Funny thing is... because I bought my MBP it pushed me to kinda delve into dj'ing... I have a little experience but to be able to use my MBP for something like this was a dream come true.... just another task my MBP can handle with ease!

I need a desk so I can have "My Setup" back, since we moved into our new apartment in April I've been using the MBP wherever I can which is usually on the bar of on my lap, I just prefer sitting a desk.

However, yesterday I made a pretty gnalry set up with some boxes and my time machine since I hadn't backed it up since the first of April. :-( Was also doing a bit of writing and recording of some guitar riffs and song ideas for my band.

Can I ask how you use the computer? Do you lie down or sit cross-legged?

I sit cross-legged. As uncomfortable as it is, it's the best position I can be in when I'm on the floor. Sometimes, I'll lean against the couch and pull the mouse near me so I can just scroll through pages.

That's how I use my MacBook when I'm sitting on the bed. Having my legs stretched out and the computer on my calves can get painful, so I prefer to sit crossed legged when I'm using my computer away from a desk or table.

Sitting in the couch is best if I'm not at a desk, but I didn't feel like bending over to do my writing/recording. Kills my back and legs, but oh well.

You need to invest in a laptop stand! Like myself. I don't really have a permanent place either, I like to move about the house.

I gave thought to that but a desk is more suited for me. I like to have my externals set up with my mouse and mouse pad, etc.

I seam to change my set up every month or get something new to add, Going to run out of money at this rate.

I moved my Mac over to the left a little bit so I don't keep banging my knee on the cabinet under my desk.

Girlfriend got me a 07 MBP for $300.00 pretty stoked about that, Got a Canon Pixma MP560 on Craigslist for $75.00 Brand new, and the metal rack for $20.

Tried to paint my hutch over my desk but f***ed up with the spray paint and sanded it down and re painted it but that just made it worse.

Cleaned up my storage center a little bit to make it look cleaner.

HAHAH I think she would hit me over the head with it if I were to give it away haha.

Her brothers Co-worker was selling it and asked if she wanted it or not. So I told she should get it, I think he is going to find another one for me at his work so I might have two of them haha. If he finds another one I'll PM you.

Extravagance isn't "needed," but it is nice for those who can afford it.
I may be 17, but all of that equipment was paid for with my (hard-earned) money, not my parents'.

Good lord, how do you have that kind of money at 17? That is a sick set up btw.
