At one of my old jobs, I was the only Mac developer. The Mac version of their product had been the whipping boy for years, because it had a lot of bugs.
I had been hired to fix them, and was about two weeks in at the company, when someone in their company forums asked what kinds of systems the programmers used. The rest of the team posted photos of their badass PCs with ergonomic chairs and futuristic offices.
So I posted this.
(and hell yeah I turned that Mac ship around!)

You quickly forget how thick those first iPods were.
Just realised your name (did a double take)....LW forever....
I'll also say that Dave Vrba did a lot more for the Mac version than I ever did, especially after I left.
But I am very glad I was able to do what I could in the time I was there. I think Dave even used an overhead for his computer screen for awhile. That was a badass setup.

That blue is gorgeous! I love how the wall/shelf match up with the wallpaper. I think the table would look cooler without a drawer, but eh practicality sometimes XD
You need a blue iMac! Or maybe a yellow one... but a blue one would work SO WELL with those walls! Lovely setup!
My MBA M3 Desk setup with my Windows Gaming Desktop on the Right. I also Have MBP M3 Pro setup to my home theatre.

Thanks! I’ve got a bit of a thing for Blue and Orange-I did consider a blue iMac, but couldn’t justify the cost-Mac Mini was the way forward. I hear you on the drawer-but needed space for cables and keyboard: reduce desktop clutter! Plus it hides the board at the back where the cable management is dealt with.
Shelf is a little storage area too…
Got to minimise the clutter! 😂
Lovely setup. And looking behind the setup, I'm intrigued by the colour of your walls. Would you mind if ii asked for some pictures of the room showing ogg the walls? I'm currently decorating my house and sitting room and kitchen will be yellow.
Same here with the blues and oranges. And also yellow here.
Almost everything in my house is blue - some walls, sofas, kitchen, clothes, cutlery, films, dining table. The stairs will be blue. The list can go on.
There's nothing going on with the other walls. I got this color long time ago. Back in 2012 when we moved into this place. In 2020 I bought some touch up. It was called Valspar Into the Green SW2243. After looking online seems Valspar was bought out by Sherwin Williams. So not sure if this color was discontinued because I can't find it anymore. So you'd have to get a custom batch made likely. Or they could have just changed the name.
Those WD drives always reminded me of legos. Neat colors!
Thank you. Going to be decorating very soon so will look out for something similar.
What stand is your MBP sitting on? Looks great with the Space Grey!
Ooh-I toyed with the idea of a mechanical keyboard but was worried it’d irritate the people in the room when I’m working. What’s it like to work with?
Still going strong with this setup, just done some additional cable management and gone back to the MX Master for my mousing needs (it’s also much more compatible with the work-issued Dell laptop below).
I like the Macs you have setup and LOVE the Boba Fett collectibles! Which 12 inch figure is that? Hot Toys?
