I received this from a friend. You can send me your email on the macrumors personal message system and I'll send it to you!
Just replaced my 20" iMac with a cinema display. I had a MacBook Pro and decided to make it my main machine since it connects nicely to the new LED screen (I also have a MacBook Air which I use when visiting clients and for traveling so keeping three machines in sync was getting a bit ridiculous).
I'm absolutely loving the cinema display. It's amazing how much more screen real estate I seem to have compared to my previous setup which consisted of a 20" iMac and a 20" HP monitor.
The only thing I don't like about the cinema display is the sound quality. The speakers are pretty horrible to say the least, hence my external speakers tucked behind.

^that is a sweet setup, I like it very clean, I guess it a shared office, Thinking of doing that with a buddy, we will have to see.
I see you don't have a plate on your outlet either.
that outlet hasnt been covered since we painted my room some 5 yrs ago. lol.
Done a little updating since the last picture. Added a new desk (finally!).
Cheers!
OHH MY GOD.
OHH MY GOOD LORD.
OHH MY GOD I SAW SOMETHING I LIKE.
I SEE TWILIGHT SAGA BOOKS ON YOUR BOOKSHELF
OHH MY GOD I LOVE TWILIGHT.
Okay, LOL.. That was melodramatic
(I still LOVE Twilight)
man i love those speakers thinking about getting them. are they connected to a DAC or just the onboard sound of the MacBook Pro/ they would benefit largely on an external DAC, youll get better bass and a warmer sound.
When a topic reaches 2,000 posts the thread is locked and then a new one begins.
Thanks. Another thing that I think could improve the monitor is the length of the cable with the magsafe, usb and minidisplay connections. While it definitely works in my configuration, it's a bit shorter than it should be.
