Im sure you have been asked this many times before, but what kind of desk is that and where can it be purchased?
Heres my current setup I have someone else's Powermac that I've been working on other than that and the externals the rest is all mine specs in the sig. The other Dell monitor should be mounted but the other mount from Monoprice came broken so I have to RMA it. I will repost once I get the new mount and install it.

My current setup
My current setup:
Hackintosh
Intel Core i5-260
8GB ram
Zotac Mini-ITX H55ITX-C-E
Nvidia 250gts
Dual NEC 23" ea231wmi (attached via 2 ergotron arms)
Maudio AV40 sitting on top of some home-made touch sensitive lamps
Apple wired keyboard
Logitech G500 (though looking for a mouse about the same size that works better in OSX, the G500 is clearly not supported and no matter what apps i use to augment the acceleration/tracking, it still sucks)
Custom built desk by me (solid sheet of aspen, with red oak trim), has a built-in cable tray that also holds my UPS and 1 of my gigabit switches and a trap door to get to the tray).
Lastly an OLD herman miller aeron (cost? $150ftw!)
Oh and the other mini-itx machine at the bottom right is my ubuntu server NAS/media server/"fake xserve" with about 5TB of space.
Hoping to replace the hackintosh with a mid-2010 low-end i5 MBP
p.s. sorry for the crappy quality of my droid incredible. :/ not so hot in low light situations.

nice desk
I'm in love with your desk....! Where did you get it?
eta - didn't realize #229 already asked, oops!

Love the setup (I was looping at that Sugo case myself) but this thread is more about Apple computers and not so much about Hackintoshes. There should be a thread in this forum catered to those, so feel free to repost it there.
This also reminds me that I need to post my Mac Pro... But it's not finished.
That's the one. Very sturdy build to it. Think I got it for ~$65 on Amazon.
Ash, my local Staples (office supply mega store) had it, i don't recall what it was really for, it is a hard surface on the top and foam on the bottom. probably for writing on. anyway, i thought it'd be wide enough for my mouse, but it wasn't, i kept it anyway.
Got a new desk by Heckler Design. In a perfect world I'd want a monitor with my MacBook Air, I might purchase one of the Dells in a few weeks/months!
It's a 11.6" MacBook Air i5 with 128GB SSD + 4GB of DDR3 Memory, a 64GB Verizon iPad 2 and a 64GB White iPhone 4S

love your setup! can I have your MBA's specs, your iPad 2's specs and your iPhone 4(s)'s specs?
Thanks
No probs,
Yeah, it's the 2011 i5 11" MacBook Air with 128GB SSD + 4GB DDR3. That's a 64GB Verizon iPad 2 in white and a 64GB Three Ireland iPhone 4S in white on contract.
Not so much on the setup, love the speakers btw, but what did you use to take the photo's? Love the "feel" they have, very retro.
Is that stand your Pro is on capable of taking a 17"? Or do they make one...I'd appreciate the name of it....It's just what I'm after.
I'm not sure, actually. It's an iCurve from Griffin and they've discontinued it. They make an Elevator but it looks sketchy. Take a look at the Rain mStand. I'm looking at getting one of those and I think they support 17" Pros.
Do you happen to use a Logitech harmony remote with your mac mini by any chance? Great setup BTW.
