never mind the table top how about a components list you are running on that bianchi ;) Nice set up

It's a slab of solid pine. Got it from IKEA some years ago, not sure if they still sell it. It came untreated and I spent a couple weeks varnishing it-- it's got at least a dozen layers on there. The table has been through quite a lot...but I think the time I spent doing that paid off :)



Thanks, it's just running all stock right now. Thinking I might convert it into single speed later this year and upgrade all the parts, we'll see!

While I've owned my share of Bianchi's I don't get the love. Bianchi is the Chevrolet of Italian bikes not thats it's not a NICE bike but I just don't get it, why the love?

It's just got a lot of history, the brand. It's the oldest continuous bicycle maker in the world too, I believe. That plus the racing pedigree and the made-in-Italy mystique and they just make good bikes. It's the overall package.

I mean why do you like Apple right? Probably for reasons both personal and not.

What would be a "nice" bike, comparatively, in your opinion?

I love old bikes in general, not just bianchi!

Heh, over the next few days while my MacBook is being worked on, this is my office set up.

Office for iOS has never been so handy! :)

My current setup, I live in a rented flat for university and was only given this small desk that is attached to the wall so have tried to make the most of it. The box that the lamp is sitting on houses my external and all the cables.

Specs:
Late 2013 27" iMac
3.5GHz i7
16GB Ram
GTX 780M
3TB Fusion

CM Storm QuickFire XT (MX Brown)
Logitech G602

Love that game. Are you playing it in OS X or Windows?

My current setup including a 13" rMBP and a 17" Alienware. I'm playing WoW on Alienware in photo. The monitor is a Dell with the same resolution as rMBP, (and a nice upgrade for the Alienware).

I use this for gaming/music production/pretending I know how to use Photoshop, etc. I've ordered a wireless keyboard for the rMBP to free up some space when switching between systems. The Razer Chrome mechanical keyboard is fine for gaming. I'm having a blast playing Warlords of Draenor. :)

Few quick questions, is that the LG solar keyboard and do you like it?

Also what lamp is that? Need a new smaller one for my desk and that looks like a good fit.

The Logitech solar keyboard, you mean? It's a Logitech K750 to be exact. And I absolutely love it! It charges with any kind of light, even the light from my monitor.

The lamp is from a local furniture store here in The Netherlands, can't seem to find it anymore on their website..

Here's my "power" setup I guess you could say. Now, when I'm working under load I use my MacBook display, my external 1080p display, and my iPad with Duet Display.
