My Current Setup

This is my current setup. Core Duo iMac and 60GB 5G iPod. Really old JUSTer SP-965 Speakers (still sound great though), Linksys 2.4GHz, 54MBPs Wireless router. Simple, huh?

How do you like the iCurve with your MBP? I've been considering getting one for mine.

I love it, but I think that I like the MBP keyboard better than the external one.

In a few months the Logitech logo on that mouse with ware out and there may be a few white marks from ware on the silver part. Just a warning, I've had mine forever and I had to put a sticker over the logo because it looked so unappealing after a while.

I dont see how the logitech logo could come off, isn't it made out of metal?

w_parietti22, how'd you get the apple remote to stay on the corner

As Benjamindaines said, I think that there is a magnet right there. If not, it just stays there for some reason.

Thanks for the compliments everyone! :)

I'm a big fan of my iCurve - I use it with my MBP as well (and I don't have a wireless keyboard/mouse)

I use it with an external monitor, so it's closed a lot of the time...but at least it stays cool and looks nice :)

Don't pay full price for one - I got mine for under 20 bucks with a buy.com coupon.

Great speakers ! :rolleyes:
 
it's intersting that most people here got extraordinary fancy desks. You know the kind that has a hole here and there and then something built on top and then multiple levels.

What happened to the classic piece of wood and 4 legs desks?

My desk is actually our old kitchen table that my parents made when they were in their 20s.

How's that?

gotta love those speakers :D Honestly, I think cheap speakers from 10 years ago sounded a lot better than cheap speakers today!
 
In early 2005...

The same desk, today...

Some things have changed (like the computer), some have remained the same (like the huge bottle of ibuprofin), but my desk is still a total mess.

Turntable for ripping vinyl onto the computer?

Yes, but mainly it's just there for listening. When I'm at home, I'm almost always by computer, so putting the turntable anywhere else would be an inconvenience. heh.

Turntable and computer are plugged into a really old Realistic mixer that somebody probably bought at a RadioShack 20 years ago.

Nice set up, and nice truck! How do you like your macbook? Im thinking about going from my 12 inch ibook g4 1.2 512 to the macbook. Hows the heat everyones talking about?
Click to expand...

hey thanks

about the heat, i've only had it ffor about 48 hours now, but i've put it through its paces a lot. it doesn't seem to get much hotter than about 75º (the cpu) and it is definitely bearable on your lap, the places that get the hottest are the upper left corner when its plugged in, and the middle-right area to left area. anything by the trackpad stays nice and cool.

i love the keyboard on it, i think it is the best i've ever typed on but thats just a personal opinion. the trackpad is MASSIVE. although i'm comparing to that of a 12" powerbook. it is very wide and not very tall. i'll only ever use part of it.

the display seems to be a lower resolution then i expected....it seems a LITTLE bit squished, but that just may be me being picky. the glossy screen looks great, and if you ask me it is easier to view outside than my powerbook. but it is the HARDEST thing to clean ever, you leave smudges ande everthing everywhere ESPECIALLY the screen.

and finally, one little accent that i loved about the black macbook, is the bright green lights for the isight, caps lock and num lock, they really stand out and make it look amazing
