Nice! Clean, sharp looking setup.
Here's my latest... it's not so much "messy" as "constantly being used' ;-)
I really need a bigger desk.

Yeah, it's not nearly as bad as it looks -- it's just a little bit of the corner that's over the edge. All the weight is on the desk; you could give that corner a good hard bump and the laptop wouldn't budge.
That said, I still need a bigger desk -- I really shouldn't be stacking monitors on my speakers!
I produce Local Edition (www.local-edition.com), a 5-minute local newscast that cuts in once every hour on CNN Headline News on Charter Cable in the Cadillac area.
I also do some freelance corporate/industrial work and web design on the side.
Looks very familiar...
We're twins now
Sad about the medium brown loss, I love that color a lot more than our black-brown.

I've also got those IKEA racks serving their duty on the wall behind me and two in the closet serving as my CD collection shelving. Looks like we have very similar taste.

Love it as always.
Those shelves' content always amaze me.
You need another monitor, and a real headphone stand. =]
Thanks for the compliments, I wasn't expecting that! I did want to create a relaxing space, my job isn't exactly stress free and I need something peaceful to come home to.
The window overlooks beautiful downtown Toronto.
Mayb whenever you get a chance you can take a picture from an angle we can see the city from?? It sounds like the perfect office environment to me really.
Canadians are so lucky....
Yea, I'd actually love a second monitor. 30" is a ton of space, but I still find myself wanting more. Sometimes I want to watch a video and work at the same time, use Safari and Pages simultaneously for research purposes while watching a movie or many of the other situations I find myself in. I'd love to put iTunes and Safari on one monitor so that I can focus solely on my work on the main monitor. Have nothing but Photoshop running on the main and all other civil stuff on the second. Maybe I'll search for a cheap deal on a 20" or something.
I plan on having dual 30", but probably wont jump for another until the new ones are announced and I can either sell my current and get two new ones, or get a matching 30" for a lower price.

+1. I also want to see the view. I always wanted an apartment overlooking downtown TO. Where abouts is it located (ur apartment - not in a stalking kinda way). I live in the suburbs (north york).
Very nice set up none the less!
Thanks! It's a work in progress, I just moved in here less than a month ago. I'll take some pictures when I get home from work.
I'm stuck up in midtown (Yonge and Eglinton). Not my first choice of neighborhood but it's so cheap to live here and I just finished up law school and am drowning in student loans so, it's good enough for now.
My desk looks so sad and inadequate compared to so many of the fancy setups in this thread.
i have the same starbucks mug, i love it!
Nice! Yonge & Eg isn't too bad. I quite like it. Pretty central and on the subway.
If you have a nice view then its all good right? haha!
Anyways lets get back on topic!
Will wait to see your "view" pics
My old setup
24" imac, ipod 16 GB,HP pavilion dv9000 hackintosh,dimension dell 5150,Dell inspiron,1TB seagate, 20" 17" 15" dell monitors,PS3,Wii, and 2 sony clies.
I took with picture with my 16GB white 3G iphone.
Also if it matter i got a mac mini hooked up to a 36" samsung TV
normally i keep the laptops closed put i opened them for picture.

EEK!! iMac too close to edge!! hurry quick before it falls!Looks like someone needs a real desk
...or fewer computers (but we know that's not an option) lol
half of them dont live there hes just moved them thats y most are not plugged in
umm yeah the ps3 and wii were moved just for the picture had them plugged to TV other than that everything is plugged in and this is my old setup im working on a new on got a bigger desk at my old house just didn't want to move it
I'm just south of ya at Davisville and Yonge in Forest Hill. It's a bit quieter than where you're at, but at least you have tons of restaurants and bars, a movie theater, a gym and a Future Shop near by. I have to trek several blocks to get to where you're at.
Love how simple it looks. Do you use the tv as a second monitor? or just for gaming/tv?
