Is that your scanner's lid on a stand? At first I thought you had one of those thin Canon scanners, but then I saw the document feeder scanner to the right. Is that an Epson?
I almost thought you had a monitor facing the wall for a minute there. Then I realized my scanner kind of looks like I have a laptop opened at a 45° angle and facing the wall. It's a Canon LiDE 500F.

You're correct...it is the scanner lid for regular scans and the photo feeder scan lid is the one that is on the scanner. It is an EPSON Perfection 2480. I can put 25 photos in it at a time for scanning...rarely get a jam or misfeed. I'm trying to get all the old family photos into digital format.
 
My current setup

20 inch 2 GHz Intel Core Duo Imac w/2 GB Ram 256 MB Vram running dual monitors / 23 inch Apple Cinema Display connected to my Imac with Mini DVI to DVI connector. So I guess you could say I have 43 inches. Now that's BIG! :cool:

haha. nice. Im so glad the new iMac has mini-Dvi. But technically, you dont have 43". You actually have fewer pixels than a 30". (-28,000 to be exact)

20" imac; 1680x1050=1,764,000
+23" acd; 1920x1200=2,304,000
--------------------------------------------
=4,068,000

30" acd; 2560*1600=4,096,00

honestly...not too much of a difference in pixels....
 
Should I or shouldn't I

I'm currently considering that setup for my first Mac, but since the entire line is being replaced by the end of the year I think I'll wait... agian. I'm thinking of just getting an HDCP monitor with video inputs first.
Can you change the desktop settings so the second monitor is on the left and not blocking the disc drive?

That is super hot. I miss my midi keyboard. I sold that one and got the garage key. I like it a lot for what I do, but I miss the bigger one a bit.

iMac is intel, no reason to expect them to change. There are other machines to switch.
There is no reason for only being able to put a second display on one side of an iMac. Completely customisable in your system prefs.

you should ;)

Dude your room is LIT like a FIRE!!!:eek: Man I can imagine it gets real dark in that room without that sweet light.

Watch out everyone this one is on a mission! Just the tools he needs....

This is pure motivation for a 12" laptop. I'd like a 1.5Ghz 15" but I love portability so unless the rumored 13" Widescreens debut then I'll have to keep saving and upgrade my skills for a new job to advance my career.

Again great setup.
 
JasonReid, that PowerBook looks so small in those pictures. :eek: Anyone else agree with me on this? It definitely looks like a 12". I know it's a 15", but it still looks tiny for some reason. Maybe it's the awesome wallpaper you got going on there. :D Anyway, nice and clean setup!
