I just get a black screen every time I try to run it. I gave up on it.

Edit:

I didn't give up lol. I had to get rid of FlashBlock : (

It's worth it though.

Agreed the desk is amazerful :p Looking at the site I can see why they could not afford the monitor upgrade. Still like someone earlier the monitor has a retro feel to it. Plus they could have drawn a monitor on the wall and I still would have thought he had boss set up because of that desk. Seriously first it was the Mark II post in the last purchase thread now this. I need to win the lotto being a first year auditor is just not cutting it.

Just so you know, the desk I posted is not the desk he has. (His desk is still very cool though, just hopefully more economical)

Here is my old setup. Had a MBP i5 w/ a 23" Samsung PX2370 LED monitor, Magic Mouse, Logitech Illuminated Keyboard and Rain Design stand. I'm hoping to score a used 27" iMac from Craigslist as my limit is $1,500 this time around.

I really, really, miss having a mac. Currently using whats in my sig below with the same 23" monitor.

Can you share with us where you bought the table, or at least who the manufacturer is?

If you get one of those Tolomeo lamps, get the one with the LED bulb. YLighting sells those.

OC Baby!
I decided to clean off my desk today so I thought I would take a few pictures of my current setup.

Cheers.

Nice setup, the b&m speakers look ace.

Nice to see some more mac mini and acd owners. I have my mini under the acd on the stand. It works well for cable space and desk space saving.

I really need to take some pics of my new setup as I've replaced my desk and have different kit now.

I like the way the Mini looks under the ACD. I wish Apple would make a 21" ACD. They are buying the screens as they are using them in the 21.5" iMacs...

I doubt Apple would want to do that, as they would be competing with lots of other brands selling 20in displays at low prices. They'd have to either go high end or cheap. And I wouldn't think they'd bother for a 20in display. The fact they only selling the 27in now is quite telling.

True, but some people (like my self) simply don't have room for the 27" display. I can barley fit the MacBook Pro and the Mini that runs Windows 7 on the 19" Monitor on my desk.

Yes, that's true too. If I were to put a 27" ACD on my desk, I wouldn't have much room for anything else either.

You know what Apple would say though. "Get a bigger desk, we're not making a 21"."

Went back to having both Macs on my desk again. Right this second they both are running Windows 7 (Which I must admit, the more I use, keeps growing on me.) Only thing I'm having issues with is the wireless trackpad (and lack of multitouch support in Windows...)

Did you install the multi touch extensions for the magic trackpad on windows? I know there is now expose and other gestures, but I have been pretty satisfied using the magic trackpad on win7 bootcamp.

Updated recently with a nice new MBP i7. There's also a 2.4GHz 20" iMac, 2nd Gen iPod touch and the new Q magazine, pretty good read. :D
