Maybe it's me, but your ipad looks like one of the fake display models in this picture. It just looks a little weird.
Got a tip for us?

How it was before:
From left to right:
Late 2009 17" MacBook Pro, 2.8 Ghz, 4 GB RAM, 500GB HDD
Xbox 360 Elite (has since been moved to a different room)
Dynex 26" HDTV
HP All In One
Boat Anchor/PC - 2.4 Ghz Core 2 Duo, GeForce 8500GT, 2GB RAM
Logitech G15
Delll 2208WFP
Razer Mamba
Logitech Z5500
At some point I plan on getting a 24" (possibly 27") Apple Cinema Display to go with my MBP.
It's acoustic foam. It cuts down sound reflections while recording and you can get it at any foam shop or a music store (where it's way more expensive)

Is that a Thermaltake Xaser Case? I have the same one, bought it when I graduated 8th grade for my first build. I loved that thing. I haven't used it in years but I'm passing it on to my cousin this Thanksgiving so he can hook the water cooling back up.
Edit: I meant to quote the before image
Without wanting to be pedantic...
There is a big difference with regards to absorption coefficients in the acoustic foam sold at music stores, than to standard foam. That's why its much more expensive!

Haha no its just a normal iPad it might be my ridiculously bright desk lamp! I've been meaning to get a dimmer bulb for quite some time. It's blinding!
what! aw man...and i was all impressed and stuff
yeah, conversly i need a light for my desk...so dark
love the setup, the only gripe i have is the rubiks cube is only half done.
Yes, you're absolutely right. However, if you go to a diverse foam store, they will have varying qualities including some that are of equal quality at lesser cost than a music store. You can't just buy a foam bed underlay and put it on the wall even though in looks very similar. You need to purchase proper acoustic foam at an appropriate density (and cut to size) according to the room size and reflectivity. If the room is has excessive reflections, than fixing the foam into a frame with an inch or so of space between the foam and the wall becomes important as well.
I take it your either a musician or home theater guy
K, way off topic. More pics please!
Macbook Pro, Acer 21.5 inch (1080p) + 17" Dell (1024 x 1280).
You can't see my Logitech speakers. Those Dell ones are for the other desktop (look at third image)
Nothing like using an AP environmental science book to raise your monitor a few inches
I couldn't find my iPod Mini, but here you see my iPhone 3GS 32GB, iPod Touch 1st Gen 8GB, iPod Touch 2nd Gen 8GB, iPod Nano 1st Gen 2GB.
Under my desk:
Free printer from Apple, my custom build desktop (see signature for specs), some boxes with ink/toner/software/extra hardware and on the far right, you see my Dell Dimension 8400. (Pentium 4, 3.2ghz; 1GB RAM; ATi x300 128MB, 160GB HDD)
If anyone is interested to see what inside of my custom built PC looks like, just let me know
More Apple products to come!
We need teh gadget pr0nz! Post pics!
Here they are!
I didn't do any "cable management" for the simple reason ... I don't really care haha. Well actually, I did that build when I was 13... so yeah.
Just so you have an idea regarding what you are looking at:
GIGABYTE GA-P55A-UD3 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory
Intel Core i5-750 2.66GHz LGA 1156 95W Quad-Core Processor
Diablotek PHD Series PHD650 650W Power Supply
Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB 3.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
PNY GeForce GTX 260 VCGGTX260CXPB Video Card
ZEROtherm CORE92 Socket 1156/1366 HDT Cooler
Yes, I did just copy and paste that from order invoice from Newegg. The email is dated from Jan 19 2010. Wow, time sure flies! Seems like I got this yesterday.

that's alright, i've got a Red Hot Chili Peppers biography and 2 philosophy texts hoisting my 2nd monitor on level with my iMac. at least i've learnt a lesson, measure up at home before going to a computer store and don't be so damn impulsive
