Post Your Mac Setup: Past & Present!

[Sharewaredemon]

Sharewaredemon you need a cover of some sorts for that iPod Video ASAP

I ALWAYS use it in a case, where the original Apple case that came with my 3G iPod, or socks, but it still scratches, because as a lot of people say, the black iPod shows scratches more.

Go figure, course it still plays music very well!

How is video editing on the eMac?

No bad I suppose, I edit full length skateboard videos on it and although I have to wait for renders and whatnot it still runs FCP 4.5 fairly well.

If you want to see some of the stuff I've done you can check out my website in my sig and look at some of the videos, the Trailer for Spring, Summer, Fall has some pretty busy editing.

Those are nice, I would lower the volume of the "skate noise" though on the mini montage.

What are the specs, like full specs (memory, hard drive config, speed)?

Thanks, you know what is funny? I actually edited the Mini montage at work on a Core Duo iMac, but you are right, the skateboarding audio is too high on that and I should have lowered it.

In terms of specs, most are in my sig, but I have a 160 GB hard drive which I think is 7200 RPM but it isn't serial. The external which is shown in my setup picture is a Maxtor One Touch III 300 GB with a 16 mb cache.

I think it's one of those keyboards that have specific labels for a specific application, to make it easier to find keyboard shortcuts.

I remember reading in another post that it was for Final Cut Pro. I could be wrong though.

edit:

I believe it to be a Photoshop keyboard so has loads of shortcuts and things written on it.

actually Final Cut, but whatever.

My first setup was my first computer the Powermac B&W G3. It had a 350mhz processor, and I had a 17" matching display. My current setup is the first release of the G5 with a single 1.8 Ghz processor, 160GB hard drive, and I have 1.5GBs of DDR SDRAM and my new purchase after it's recent pricedrop...the 20" Cinema Display.

Heres my iMac...

Right, so those were my old photos. I repainted my room, and stuff, so my setup looks ALOT nicer.

P.S. Once Merom MBPs come out, that will also be on my desk, along with a Wireless Apple Keyboard and Wireliess Mightymouse for my iMac, and a Wireless Mightymouse for my MBP, so it should look SWEET!! I can't wait!

Sorry for the poor quality pics, I'll try and retake them and then edit the post.

Specs:

iMac G4 15", 700MHz, 32MB VRAM, 512MB RAM, 40GB HD, Combodrive.
White 30GB 5th Gen iPod.
(not in photo) 10GB 3rd Gen iPod.

MBP (to come) : MacBook Pro Intel Merom 15", 2.33Ghz, 256MN VRAM, 2GB RAM, 100GB HD @ 7200RPM, Superdrive.

Yea, it's Ikea.

http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stor...15&categoryId=16133&chosenPartNumber=60105103

It's really strong, the only think i don't like, is the white wood thing under the desk, I'm really tall and I like to be REALLY close to the desk, so I always hit my knee on it. And I'm afraid it's gonna brake everytime I do that.. But it's really stong.

Everything but the iPod socks, iPod and iMac are from iKea (that are on my desk)

Lol.. look at how I wrote Ikea.
