Your setup looks really nice, altough I prefer landscape monitors.
I'm thinking to buy a 13" rMBP. Can you tell me in which cases it does get hot? Thanks a lot!

Haven't really tested it out yet. This beauty just got here less than 24 hours ago, so i can't really tell you ahah. Sorry.
what are you using to drive the external monitors?
All current retina MBPs have 2 Thunderbolt 2 ports. Each one supports 1 external display. For a total of 2 displays. You can buy adapters, i.e., Thunderbolt to VGA/DVI/HDMI.
For my setup, I'm using a mini display port to full size display port cable for my main monitor, and a hdmi cable for my secondary monitor. Leaving one thunderbolt port for the Ethernet.

I know its from Costco, its the samsung S27D360HS 27 inch LED monitor Samsung they just came out with. I like it, it's very sharp.
Sorry for the crappy picture

I also have a usb switcher glued to the bottom of my desk. A simple press of a button swaps my keyboard and mouse to my mac and back.

New rMBP on an mStand, the desk is 8' and floats behind a sofa. There are also a few TB's hiding under the desk.

Not as fancy as the rest of you, but this is my first real setup since getting my MBP a month ago. Shown is a 27" Acer monitor, Creative speakers, a 2TB HD (sadly 128GB in the MBP is a bit on the low side), a BluRay external burner, and my iPhone 6+.
Love your wallpaper, do you have a copy of it, that you would be willing to share?
It's called Ga-Rei Zero. Really cool anime if you like seeing people with powers and crazy sword skills fight each other

Can you take a normal picture of your setup. I would like to see what it looks like straight on

Old blogging Emac
Hi!
This is my old Emac, from where my girlfriend like to blog. It works as the first day, but obviously is too old even to see a video in Youtube, but it keeps the feeling and look of the early days of Apple. I Love it.
