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

[DoFoT9]

With the Duet, it has stereo 1/4" outs, and a couple shielded 1/4" cables. Though the monitors also have XLR and RCA inputs, so you aren't limited to one option which is nice.

i presume there is no digital way of connecting?

I'm not sure, what do you want to connect it to?

Mine, now with 100% more trackpad...

Nice arcade stick. Why only 3 buttons though; what you playing?

Nice arcade stick. You build the box for the panel yourself? Why only 3 buttons though; what you playing?

It's only 3 Buttons as its for Virtua Fighter 5, it's a genuine Sega panel from Japan same part as used for the real cabs...

The box is just a cheap "floating shelf" that was the perfect size and luckily hollow.

This is what I use for other games, again all official sega components...

Both are wired for Xbox 360 using Madcatz Controller PCBs.

It doesn't do what you're asking. That would be a pretty cool feature though.

oh maybe i wont get one then

I actually don't think you'd really want it to do that. One of my teachers had a tablet that did that, and it was a real b!tch to use, since you had to sort of guess where the content on screen was, and mentally scale it down to the size of the tablet, and press there, and get it wrong, and have to do it again. Steep, steep learning curve, to say the least.

thats a good point! i am already used to the trackpad from the laptops - probably a good idea that they left it how it is.

Better picture of my set up with my new iPhone 4 that I bought today at the Apple store. The lighting in my room sucks! The picture still isn't that great compared to taking pictures outside with the iPhone 4. (Old 3GS in the dock)

 

[Hisdem]

I'm waiting on my mStand to arrive. Should get here this week.

 

[toolbox]

How do u like the trackpad compared to a mouse?

Thanks so much toolbox!

I wouldn't say it's better than a mouse but I like it a lot. It's very easy to use just like every Apple product.

Mac Setup updated

Well so I managed to finally get an Apple 17'' Studio LCD Display for my Quicksilver G4. This is an update on my setup

Main desk area

Quicksilver G4 connected to the Apple studio display

Media Area with Mac mini & eMac

Lonely PM G4 Graphite

The Cable Mess (love the rear of the display) as steve Jobs said "The back of this thing looks better than the front of the other guys "

Are they the B&W speakers?

 

[JoeG4]

Macnerd, I love your setup! The wiring looks like an easy enough fix, but I totally agree about the ADC monitors (then again, I liked them so much that after my last set was stolen with my QS G4 I went and found new ones on ebay >>). Clearly spent too much for them.

In a way it's too bad they kinda went towards the much more common duck foot thing, the 24" and 27"ers look almost identical to some HP monitors! I mean, they still look nice, but.. yea..

The only sad thing about the later model G4s (QS and MDD) is they're SO LOUD. My Dual 800 QS was easily as loud as my dual 867 MDD

 

[InsightsIE]

The old apple displays are so pretty. I have the same laptop so i wouldn't mind getting two of those displays in 22" and hooking them up to a mac pro... if i could afford it

Where is your desk from?
I really like it.

Like it, but do something about your cables! Would really look a lot better
