Kudos to you for getting RGB lights, but keeping it simple with white lighting... unlike those windows pc streamers/gamers... LOL.. wait... that's me.. haha. Thanks for the link... I was thinking about putting lighting in my Kallax shelf unit... but with colored RGB lighting.

Okay, I’ll bite. Why do you have a floppy disk?

PS: nice setup. How much storage back there?

I’m guessing he uses it as a coaster.

And thinking about it, that isn’t a bad idea!

The spinner part of a hard drive also makes a good coaster.

Loving that desk, and the space it offers!

Thanks! Love that IKEA desk aswell. It's having additional space also on the right (not shown in picture) where I keep my printer and some paper organizer on it.

Sad that Ikea got rid of the Galant series of desks

I like it!. Is that a Tomb Raider photo, top right? Ah, memories of playing that game to death.

Likewise I thought it was too but the dino's in the lower part of the pic on the right had me confused. Yes gen 1 of that game on playstation spent lots of fun hours.

Yes, the two pics are actually calendars by an artist Inna Vjuzhanina. That is Lara Croft on the right, Inna’s rendition of the 10th anniversary.

I don’t think the calendars are available anymore, but the artwork is 😋

I just noticed the iSight camera! That is still going on strong?! Wow Apple can really build solid long lasting products.

It’s actually a Logitech 1080p camera… But Apple do build good stuff ?

could you please tell me the webcam you are using with the cinema displays ?

 

[ericwn]

That’s Apple’s iSight camera.

 

[gagigu]

Yes it's the Apple iSight powered via FireWire400. It's old and not very high quality as it's only recording in 420p or something like that.

I'm getting ready for Monterey and Universal Control. Dream setup is to use the M1 Pro as an interface (keyboard + mouse) to do stuff on the iMac pro and on the iPad. View attachment 1802701

What brand is the case on your MacBook Air?

 

[TrancyGoose]

Just wanted to share my humble set up! Been building it up since the start of the pandemic.
The whole thing is powered by two devices.

Personal M1 Macbook Pro 13 inch.
Work issued Chrome OS device, Asus Chrome-box 4 (i5 10th Gen) actually not a bad machine. (Our company lives in G-Suite.) I do a lot of Spreadsheets, and it handles even the big ones, very well.

Normally, working at the office, I use a laptop (a Chromebook), but to keep it clean for WFH I actually requested a Chromebox instead of a laptop, since there is no meeting rooms to go to, and it saves space by not having another laptop on my desk. Downside, no meetings while on the toilet, i can live with that.

Now going in to a detail:

• Speaker - Creative T100
• Headphones
  • Bose NC 700
  • Old Corsair Gaming headset that is actually RGB, for video calls (mike is really good on this one)
  • Airpods second gen
• Monitor Arm by Invision
• BenQ 27 Inch 4K screen (HDMI x2, DP and USB-C with PD)
• Mouse - MX Master 3 for Mac by Logitech
• Keyboard - MX Keys by Logitech
• Webcam - Logitech C920
• USB-C hub - Dockcase 7 in 1, 8 in 1 has been pre ordered, arriving soon (hopefully)
• Desk and Drawers - IKEA, basic stuff
• a Cactus
• I still use an iPhone 11 that works.
• I use an Apple Watch SE, 44mm the black one

It's not that fancy, but took a while to justify even that to the wife! So, I guess, I am happy with what I got.
When we go back to the office, whenever that happens, Chrome-box will get replaced by a Windows gaming PC of some sort, hopefully, my son will be a bit older then, and I get some time to play.

Now, can anyone guess the brand and model of my backpack?

It's a M1 Macbook Pro, not an Air. And the case, IIRC is a Bouletta Leather Case for 13" Macbook Pro.

Here's my M1 Max MacBook Pro 16" hooked up to my 20" Cinema Display. The Cinema Display still is a beauty nearly 16 years later and works like a charm. I also pulled every default wallpaper off of my 2006 MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard and have the entire collection saved to my new machine!
