You can get it at Ikea. Not sure what it's called. It might be part of the Mikeal series.
edit: too late...nevermind.
Never realized how shiny my desk is. Ha.

about that semi cercular desk cover - does anyone know why it says in the description that a cordless keyboard and moust canot be used together with the KNOS desk cover?
Does anyone know where to get this desk pad/mat?
This is my dream setup, just with iMac instead of whatever you have hooked up to that CD. Yeah, good stuff.

My setup...
Well, here is my humble setup-- I am just a lowly college student still living at home, so it ain't much.
I have my mac set up in a bookshelf that sits at the foot of my bed. It is kind of well placed. I enjoy working on and around my bed on homework and essays. When I need to use my windows desktop (CIS major, it's necessary), I just remote desktop using CoRD.
Yeah, it is tiny but I love how nicely everything fits together. There is just enough room for everything to lay pleasantly.
Top shelf: Vintage GE Flip Clock Radio, Controllers for my
entertainment system across the room, WoW discs and Cocoa books.
Bottom shelf: Free Agent HDD (for Time-Machine), Macbook 2.4, LG enV, iPod Classic, and Logitech G5 (on WoW mousepad).
I notice a lot of you guys have that flip clock screen saver on your computers... In my opinion, nothing beats the real thing. ;D
Just thought I would share finally. This is a fun thread.

My sentiments exactly - to add, I have found that there are two types of computer users - people that need their "workspace," to which an iMac is ideal; and people that do not. Price is obviously a large factor in deciding as well - you can get a 24' iMac for $1800 while the price of a base MBP and decent monitor can cost around $2200. If you go the all Apple route, you're looking at getting a MBP and 24' LED, you're looking at Mac Pro price territory.
Ultimately, your decision should be based on two factors - the way you work and what your budget is.
Personally I don't really like the looks of the iMac. It might be a widescreen monitor but the entire computer is just a square. But that's just my personal opinion. Portability is obviously a big factor.
The iMacs are actually faster than the MBPs generation-wise speaking. Aka the new iMacs are going to be faster than the current MBPs. It's always been like that.
But yeah portability...
I use to use a MBP with external display but recently added an iMac. If I couldn't have both I would 100% choose a MBP with external over an iMac. The only disadvantage in my opinion (aside from cost) is that you don't have a machine up 24/7. I wanted a machine that was up all the time for downloads, airtunes, and network shares but if you don't need this then it isn't a problem. With a laptop and external you can easily take your work with you whether it be on a personal/work trip or even to the other room.
Dammit. And I was waiting for new iMacs, lol. Oh Macrumors, the tempting words that flow around here.
