Canada eh?
Okay, it's a PC, I know, but bits were inspired by you Mac dudes :)

Updated from here:

Basically, new posters, new DAC, new lights, Lego, microblocks, and a second unit on the right so the tower sits on it's own, now.

Really pleased!

Great clean setup! Where did u get the posters? I just moved my setup from the basement to a spare bedroom and need things for the walls.

Also need a nice lamp if anybody has some suggestions

Do you have a source so I can verify this? How can you be sure?
IKEA Netherlands customer support (phone) and info desks at IKEA Amsterdam and Haarlem. The employees looked things up in the the computer and they all came back with the same thing: GALANT is being discontinued by August. They're basically clearing inventory. IKEA isn't Apple, they're not making a secret out of it. The only thing that wasn't 100% clear to me is whether they're discontinuing GALANT as a whole or just the glass ones.

I asked because I wanted the white glass GALANT desk (the one you see in my photos) which they didn't sell in Amsterdam anymore. Online there wasn't any indication either whether the store would be restocked or not. Same went for IKEA Haarlem. That's why I made the call. I was lucky IKEA Utrecht still had two or three, so I had to get it from there. It was a bit of a hassle, but worth it in the end.

Anyway, do what you want with the info I'm giving you. ;)

Spent the past weekend moving my desk and changing some stuff around..

A quick (and bad) pic of how it was last friday..

(MBP usually lies in between the Airport Express and the Pioneer receiver, but it was still in the living room when I took the picture.)

And 2 work in progress pics of how it's looking today:

Still needs some changes as I'm not entirely happy with the setup now. I'll update in a few days with the final version. ;)

Sick setup. Is this your desk from the Ikea Galant collection?

That's the most awesome setup I've ever seen in my life. Just... wow!

On-topic, here's mine. There's also an XBOX 360 connected to the display - it's just out of the picture to the right.
