Hate to burst your bubble, but none of those will do a better job then your Macbook (except perhaps a marginal increase). Photography processing requires raw horsepower, not dedicated video.
I agree!! I love how such a small space has big capabilities!! And I am also loving that volcano!! Is that a tissue holder??? It looks like there is a tissue coming out of the top.... if so i need one ASAP! lol
haha yes, that is a tissue box cover! It's from Loop NYC
really? damn.
i guess ill have to build my vista machine and hope windows 7 doesnt suck
Where did you buy the glass top for the MIKAEL desk? I looked everywhere on the IKEA website, searched in Google, nothing. Do you have to buy it in-store?

Lol thanks! Now I just need to find it! Everywhere i look it is out of stock...grrr... and i noticed they had one like a cup of tea SWEET!!
Alright, I just wanted to post this photo before everything gets completely changed. My iMac just sold on eBay, along with my iPhone, and my two iBooks. I did all this so I could get a new iMac and $99 16GB iPod Touch through Apple's Back to School Promotion. I also am planning to get a MIKAEL desk with the glass top (where can you buy the glass top?) and I am going to replace my TV from 1984 with a new Westinghouse 26" HDTV as soon as it gets out of backorder. I also hope to get a new shelf for all of my game consoles, I have a black one in mind with 4 shelves. And lastly, I am going to get a new shelf for all of my games to go on, once again from IKEA.
What do you guys think?
Also, just to add, I LOVE my Altec Lansing speakers. There's a subwoofer that you can't see to the left, and the speakers have AMAZING quality!

My office remodel is almost done. Since my last post, I've upgraded my monitors and added a second Kinesis keyboard.
The Mac Pro is a 8x2.8, 12 GB of RAM, 3x2600 video cards, and ~5 TB of local disk. The monitors for the Mac Pro are 1x30 Apple and 4x20" 1200x1600 HP 20". The MacBook Pro is 2.2 GHz with 4 GB of RAM with a 24" display.
Also, here's a picture of my wiring closet for the various Cat-6 drops around the house (10 in the office--I have more equipment than above, but they're not Macs ):

1: What the hell do you do for a living?
2: What brand/model is your LCD mounting system? That's very slick.
3: How strong is your air conditioner? It must get warm in there. Ok, that's not a serious question.
I would guess that maybe it is a back-up ADSL modem and it appears to have a phone socket input and ethernet output whilst the upper SMC box is the main cable modem? Just a guess...
No, the phone lines there is actually Vonage extensions that distribute over to my desk.
The DLINK is my old router. I just moved and haven't gotten the network set-up completely, so in the interim, my old network is just ganged onto the new network. It's just a hack for now.
Edit: Oops--The third box is the Vonage adapter. There's 3 phone jacks in there; 1 is a home-run to another phone panel in the basement (in theory, just hangs out there right now). The other 2 are extensions that run to my desk.
I forgot to mention that the office has a dedicate 60 amp sub-panel off the main panel. There's 3 x 15 amp outlet circuits in spread across 3 locations in the office, 1 x 15 amp in the closet, 1 x 20 amp for the AC, and 1 x 15 amp for the lights/small electric outlets.

I'm a software entrepreneur, mostly focused on the development side of the house (coding, debugging--I do some marketing and PM but generally I try to work with others with those skills).
The LCD mounts are made by Ergotron. I highly recommend them, though they are not cheap.
Even though it wasn't serious, the A/C I have right now is temporary--I'm having my HVAC guy put in a dedicated ductless system for the office--it will be 12,000 BTUs.

I saw the source code, but was wondering if your home hosted the IRS tax database with that much screen real estate.
Thanks for the tip. Expense isn't a problem if it does the job properly. I don't like the VESA mounts that sag after two months. Those look sturdy.

Yeah, these are the DS-100 system. They used to sell the parts individually, so it was possible to build just about anything. I'm not sure they do now. I've had them for about 3 years--they are completely worth the price. Just beware that longer bars are needed for larger screens (> 24" in landscape mode).
Here's my setup, I just moved a couple of months ago and decided to go with an elevated desk and stool. I run my penryn mpb closed most of the time. If you look closely it's elevated a bit to help circulation, I used a headband
One of my favourite setups by far, because of the desk, the clock, calendar, lomography cameras, Keep Calm and Carry On print, and desktop background. Fantastic!
When doing what? As long as you're not gaming or video editing, they're perfectly fine, I've found.
