Post Your Mac Setup: Past & Present (Part 20)

Recently upgraded my setup. My first Apple computer (only iPads & iPhones up until this point)

MBP 14” M1 16/512
2 x LG 4k displays
Logitech Master 3 mouse
Logitech Master Ks keyboard
Sanyun speakers (Amazon specials- but they sound better than the Creative Pebbles)

Still a work in progress. Had to remove some items from the wall due to the new motorized desk. Paint is next.

Just saw this on Reddit and noticed how much hate you got for the boxes lmfao..
I wouldn't listen to them and just add even more boxes to annoy them lol.
It's your setup and your room, you shouldn't have to adjust to suit others needs.

My only suggestion I want to give is putting up some shelves to display them better and more organized.
But other than that, keep it up, looking forward to see how you'll display it in your next pictures!

PS: I'm a tad jealous for your Macintosh Classic wall art.

Not sure a wall full of iPhone boxes does it for me, but, hey, it's YOUR office. Decorate it as you see fit and don't let the haters get you down.

Some slightly updated pics. Realized I needed a larger desktop so picked up the Ikea 63“ desk top and mounted it to the motorized legs of the desk I just bought. Perfect size now. Replaced the speakers as well and added th3 dual monitor led lights. And upgraded the soundbar I use for my work meetings. Very happy with it now.

Looks clean! How's the Samsung monitor? I heard MacOS isn't that great on 4k screens...

Also where can I get that wallpaper? :)

Thanks... :) The Samsung monitor is really nice, I haven't noticed any problems with it and MacOS so far... Everything looks great, crisp and clean, out of the box. I can't remember where I got the wallpaper but I will look into it :)

Found the wallpaper :)

They are the LG 27UN850-W

Im happy with them. i run them at…2560x1440 I think. I tried at full 4k and I can’t see anything. Bad eyes.

For ~$600 for two monitors I think they work well. I also use them with my work Windows laptop. It’s an older one that only supports 1080 max and they look good with that as well.

This is my current desktop.

photo_2024-01-23 11.58.22.jpeg


The Mac Studio is an M1 Max with 32GB of unified memory and 1TB SSD.

The MacBook Pro 14" is a M3 Pro with 18GB of unified memory and 1TB SSD.

On the shelf I have a 27" HP 4K monitor, which I will be replacing with a 32" 4K Samsung TV, to which I have the Xbox Series X and an Apple TV 4K connected. I also have the second generation HomePod connected to the Apple TV.

I may be moving to another city in the next few months, so I will likely buy a larger desktop.

The set up for my Mac Studio. Peripherals include 2x LG 4K 24" displays, Magic Keyboard w/ Touch ID, and Magic Trackpad. Desk is the Jarvis from Fully with the contour bamboo surface. It's electronic sit/stand with programmable memory for 4 different heights. Chair is a Herman Miller Embody.

At some point I'm probably going to ditch the dual displays for a single ultra wide display but I'm not in any hurry.
