Post Your Mac Setup: Past & Present (Part 4)

[kflook]

My old setup the day I bought it, before I even had a desk.

Sorry for the blurry pic...I'll have to get a better one with my new setup.

Same computer, lots more "stuff" hooked up to it now though

Older setup I need to get pictures of new one.

Interesting. How did having the LCD above the PowerBook work for you? I've been on the fence about doing that for months.

What kind of stand are you using for your Dell 2405... or are you using one?

In the last picture, what do you have your monitor mounted to? I have what looks like the same monitor, and find that very interesting.

What kind of stand are you using for your Dell 2405... or are you using one?

Blasphemy... you beat me to it by 1 minute.

Do you still remember where you got the desktop on your linux box?

Sweet thank you. This may be my new desk. If I can find a good temporary droor/cabinet setup to put under on one side that will be my desk

Thanks for the link!

If you put the stand back off the desk and make the feet go under the desk and put the desk as far back as it can go, it pins the LCD stand and makes it sit flat on the desk.

As for the wallpaper (the orange one) I think you're talking about can be found at http://www.deviantart.com in Customization > Wallpapers > HDTV/Widescreen. You'll have to a little searching.

Bah, thats cheating! Which I'm afraid my desk isn't able to do it like that. I was hoping for a nice stand.

Another thread, another post. Nothing has changed really. Just a different shot.

you know what I have noticed...it seems that the most popular computer is the laptop. I wonder why that is. I love my desktop one I have thought about that it would be nice to have a macbook once in awhile, but...eh, not really.

Why is the notebook the most popular?

 

[iMpathetic]

What is that keyboard? iMpathetic likie.

Why is the notebook the most popular?

Because they are dropping in price, have increasingly better specs, can power large external monitors as desktop replacements . . .

And they're portable

Its a logitech S 530 for mac link

Nice keyboard! I'm not sure how I missed this setup, but now I'm totally tempted to get it. Thanks for sharing the link.

I've seen your setup several times now, and just wanted to say I love it. Nice clean lines, no clutter. It really accentuates just how beautiful the iMac is.

Where did you get those lights from?

Wait, there wasn't one? Sorry...

Those look like awesome speakers. I'm in the market for a good set right now. I ordered some Creature II's when I got my iMac and they were defective, so I sent 'em back to Amazon. My biggest annoyance with those speakers (other than the fact that one of the speakers didn't work) was that they didn't have a power button on the speakers. It was on the sub, so if you wanted to turn 'em off, you'd have to get down in the floor and hit the button on the sub. VERY annoying. It says these have desktop controls for volume, power, etc., but I didn't see 'em in the pics. Do you know if they have a remote or if the controls are on the speakers?

Like the set up. Very simple and non cluttered. Big gamer are you? lol. Glad you finally got it how you wanted it.

Thanks .

Yeah love me gaming, but rather despise PC gaming... (obvious by the iMac I spose).
Just can't stand the whole; don't know if the game will run correctly, oh noes im using an ATi card instead of nVidia my game wont show textures right etc etc. Being a console gamer I find it far cheaper and easier.

So many clean setups I can't get my desk uncluttered for the life of me

obviously means you (like me) have plenty of work to crack on with - my desks a state atm!

Half of the frame is missing (around the battery, etc)

It's not missing, I took that photo after I had removed the base plastics.

Edit: oh wait, I see what you mean. Yes, looks like there's a bit broken off; though the plastics are in good condition so it can't ahve been dropped on the corner... strange...
