The SE/30 still works. And the cool thing is, it starts up faster than my 2,4Ghz 4GB MBP! Just wicked...
thats quite a movie collection you have there
It's been ages I posted here, and my setup changed a bit since last time:
Hey, where did you get those silver grills underneath your mbp and pb?
Also is it true that most of the heat of the mbps escapes through the bottom of the unit?
And...is there any reason why you chose the birch over the black mikael desk(s)?
Thanx

wow thats a real nice setup man. how's that hackintosh working for you?
Thanks, the Hackintosh is great I'm using it as my main system. It's very stable and fast, best part about it all I built the actual system in 2006 and when I decided to install OSX on it a few weeks ago everything worked perfect and I did not need to spend any extra money on hardware to get it working

thats awesome man, it sure looks pretty fast based on those specs.

The grills are from Ikea.
I like them better than regular Laptop holders cause I can put all the cables between the iron bars when I take my laptop with me so they won't fall between the desk and the wall
Not sure if it really helps with the cooling though, but as far as I see it: the more airflow around the device, the more it gets cooled?
As for the deskcolor: I recently changed the color of the wall, so now a black desk would be better.
Maybe a project for this summer..
Absolutely agree with this. These things are wonderful and cheap. I have several underneath my desk and it makes a huge difference.
not only wires, but your surge protector and several DC adapter bricks (printer, external hd, etc.) will fit in the rack. This has made my setup SO much neater! IKEA is the best store on earth! well other than
Downsized/upgraded some of it... what I do have left is packed up because I'm moving soon.
Wow you have a nice setup, and look at all that room, wish i had a room like that
I would say not much changed since the last time I posted, I just moved it around to a different part of my room and a few things are missing. Well anyway here goes nothing. I'm thinking about selling this including the monitor etc and use the money towards one of the Apple Laptops? Think its a good idea ?
THanks, I appreciate it!! The room is actually a GIANT bedroom.....the pic from the furthest distance away was taken lying on the floor next to my bed.
As you can see, my grey cat (Thor) was replaced by a 24" iMac that I was setting up for my parents (That is also the reason for the general clutter of boxes under the desk).
The second pair of pictures is of my wimpy entertainment center, macbook and iPod touch representing. And another cat (Xavi).
Its only a 23", and yeah I'm not happy with it like that either. I wanted a small TV, and I love those speakers but I know that when they are near each other it makes it look a little goofy.
... maybe if the TV were mounted a bit lower... or maybe I should try to put the speakers somewhere else...
