I recently added an Expedit shelf to my living room. There isn't an ikea store nearby, so I ordered it off of eBay. I also added a chair with a "personal table" for working on a laptop or iPad. I prefer the iPad since i can use AirPlay for the headphone setup.
I thought I would use my laptop more with this setup, but the 18 inch screen (it's an HP win7 model) is a bit large for the table.
I have one of those "Personal Tables" attached to my Stressless Leather chair it really only fits my macbook pro 13.3" with room for the magic mouse next to it. Best purchase I ever made. When I want to read on my iPad I just place it on top of the closed macbook Pro and lean back in my chair and enjoy.
I need a smaller laptop, but it wasn't in my short term plans, so I need to do some research. I mainly want to be able to edit photos on it, but I am curious if I can get by with one of the Airs for that purpose. It would be nice to have something light and small for trips that can store and edit photos.
I do like the iPad on the Ori case/mount (shown in my pic), though. Even if I add an Air or Pro, I think the iPad will get the most use.

That one is similar, but it uses two colors. The kind I have has several colors. They are not ideal, though. The battery burns out while they are in standby mode, so I have to turn them off and on manually went I want to use them (unless I want to burn through a lot of batteries).
It is an Ekorness Stressless Ambassador chair. If I remember correctly (I ordered it a few months ago), the leather is Paloma Cherry.
Hope you guys like it
Those Black MacBooks still look fantastic even today. I really would like to see a black anodised option for the MacBook Pro line.
LOL!! I did not think about how that would look. I just got it and I was picture happy. LOL!!
Thanks for pointing that out. I am carrying it in this.
Something simple for the time being:
Macbook Pro 13''
Bose Companion 5 with Acoustic module with volume pod
iPhone 4
Magic mouse.

That's really nice. Great selection of equipment. I love the vertical monitor to the side.

Exactly. Imagine black MacBook pros. That would be so cool. I'd buy it on the spot.
My setup at work! We have a remote office setup in Chicago (most of us work from home), but we decided to rent out a small condo space and set up a small cube farm.
