Wow that's an amazing setupchrismcdowell25 said:
First I thought the XServe was your main computer, then I thought the display was connected to the PowerBook. Took me the longest time to find the PowerMac tucked away
Specs
I like the chair for the first hour or so but after sitting on it all night it gets uncomfortable. There just isnt enough padding. Want one of those mesh aeon chairs but their a little expensive. I need to pay off my credit card debt before I get a $500-$700 chair. Even then I think that is a bit much for a chair. Any sudgestions on a decent knockoff?
If you look at the old setup it was in a different room. I moved into another room. I got rid of the dell as my server use the PC as a fileserver for my modded xbox. Added in the G5 for some Webserving/Filesahring/Fun. This is all in the old room and the xbox pulls it over the gigabit network for a mediacenter like experience - the tv recorder. In the new room I have the Powerbook Powermac.
Got this refurbed from smalldog electronics a few months ago and then added the 2x500HDD a few weeks ago.

Just got the desk from ikea a few weeks ago it was about $500 I think. It is the Galant. You build your own stuff at ikea which i didnt know so you get to custom configure which ends you want on the base corner piece and choose the legs and what not pretty cool actually.
HP projector with xbox 360, xbox hooked up to one set of surround speakers. G5 is hooked up to the other set. Both are logitechs.
