Think you meant my geode??
Anyway, thank you very much for your feedback! Was concerned it was a bit unsuited to the office...New speakers (like posted in the purchase thread) as well as a new cover for my ipad
Btw I need some help, my screen didn't come with the option to get it raised... and i am wondering if anyone has a nicer solution than what I am doing right now (using a nike shoe box) :/ any help would be appreciated

You could get something like this:

Or an adjustable arm mount like this:

I'd go with the first option, personally.

Really depends how high you want your monitor. Your two options as mentioned above are either a stand or a mount.
Here are a few others.
i360
Low Key Stand

I think it looks great!

Got my Thunderbolt Display back from repair!!!
MacBook Air 2012 with Book Arc
Behind the Thunderbolt Display...
Samsung Galaxy S3
New Toy!
my s3 comes tomorrow .. what case are you using? and are you using a screen protector ? how do you like the phone ?
this was the best I could organize the wires.... the wires are too tight to bend into the stand so it sticks out.
Viewed from the front everything looks good. It's up to you see if you want to do more in the back.
We managed to fill it once, probably about 5 years ago. We cashed it all in though, got roughly £300 or something like that
Now, its only got probably just over double the amount of yours, so we are nowhere close Great setup. May I ask what you were watching on your computer?
Deadmau5 - Great electronic music! I saw they recently put this up on Netflix also.
and want one of those sooo bad! played with one at the AT&T store and just love it so much! also love the HTC One X, both great devices
Heres a better (but still not great) pic of my setup after some tidying up.

so, how do you like working/ playing on the computer standing up?
Do your feet get tired?
I saw your previous post on this setup and I'm really interested in standing up whilst working on my mac but I don't have a back problem just wanna burn extra calories. Makes me wanna put a treadmill underneath
kinda like this LMAO!
Could you please tell me where you got that standing desk from?
Thanks!
EDIT:
Nevermind, I think I figured it out, http://www.geekdesk.com/

Sure I got it here:

Its a little pricey (but still much cheaper than competing desks I've found) but absolutely worth every penny. Its motorized so you can move it up and down whenever you want.
They also sell just the legs and motor if you want to use your own top. Its helped tremendously with my bad back.

I adore my standing desk. I bought an anti fatigue mat for under it though. At home my feet don't get tired because I'm in my bare feet but at work (I switched my work desk too) they do since I'm wearing shoes and our floor is rock hard. Ill sit on my knees on my desk chair for about 15 minutes once a day at work but other than that I'm standing the entire time.
I've seen the treadmill setups .I'd like to try that eventually.
My desk as of now.
Bit more cluttered compared to my last pic as Ive added the Minx mini's
but its not too bad for what I need.
also put a small shelf up now to help declutter a bit.

But just a couple of zip-ties will fix the mess and it would look much neater. No big deal if you had your desk facing a wall and not the room.
Or go fancy and invest $4.99 at IKEA on Rabalder cable reel. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20097954/?query=RABALDER+Cable+reel
