I tried to trim down on the #s. But, I heard so many horror stories in which selling has gone bad (products are shipped to the buyer, who did not pay). What would be the best and safest way to sell?

I've never had a real problem with eBay, personally. You just have to be smart. Don't ship until you've been paid. I only accept PayPal, and I require that your account be linked to a PayPal account before you can even bid (which cuts down on the nigerian scams). I only ship within the US.

Alternatively, you could try the marketplace here. You won't get as much as you would on eBay, but you'll also be able to avoid eBay fees, and you'll (typically) have a higher caliber buyer, and less scams.

Also, craigslist is good if you live near a bigger city. You won't have to deal with any fees, and you can do everything in person, no shipping or anonymity hassles. I'd only accept cash, though, personally, because money orders can be falsified.
 
Yeah its wall mounted, unfortunately the centre speaker wouldn't fit under the display on the normal stand!
Have you tried running the cables along the display arm, putting the center speaker a little bit behind the ACD and lowering it, so that normally you can only see half the center speaker? I never used a wall-mounted display, but I think it'd look good.

God, your pictures almost burned my retina. That looks like a very powerful flash off your camera.

Actually, its was taken with my cell phone( v3x), so the picture quality is not soo good...
 
I like computers. iBook for daily tug-along for document creations and minor graphic works for marketing while on the road or in the office.

Ti is now used mainly for iTune radio (through the external stereo speaker) and ripping DVDs to external HDs with MacTheRipper.

12" PB and 15" PB are used for CS2 and MX2004 works as they are hooked up with ACDs.

Dell is the work PC for Lotus Notes and company network related programs.

Tablet PC is for note-taking and virtual file cabinet (I am trying to reduce the paper document so that I can carry "electronic paper and notes" with me in this Tablet PC).

MBP is a toy for me now as I am interested in getting C2D MBP (Core Duo MBP did not make a cut for me as it was slow launching Office 2004/CS2). I am planning to start learning and doing video editing and 3D graphics with this new machine as it is more powerful than my other Macs.

If I get hooked into 3D graphics and video editing/creation, I would get Mac Pro in the future. I have to find the space for that as my desks are full with all accessories and external HDs.


Buddy... a Core2Duo MBP won't open CS2 or Office much faster than a CoreDuo, if at all. Rosetta is Rosetta. When they finally release universal versions, we'll all be much happier.

My own experience tells me differently. The Core Duo model I tested in Apple Stores took so many seconds just to launch Office 2004 and CS2. That was a complete turn-off for me for those models ( I winced when I had to wait Core Duo MBP and MB took ages to launch those programs). I am simply stating what I experienced with the actual machines.

That is my exact plan. I don't want to be stranded without working muose nor computer. With my current set up, I was able to resolve that problem for now.

Wow...dude...I'm shocked. Um, yeah, I bet it gets pretty hot in that room. But um, yeah. Keep the CD MBP, the TiBook, and get a high end desktop.

Very nice! I think the Black MacBook is one of the best looking Macs EVER! They are just so awesome looking! I actually like the looks of them more than the MacBook Pro.

I think it looks better than the white Macbook but no way does it look better than the MBP :rolleyes: Atleast not to me....

I honestly think it does. It may be where it's basically a complete redesign. The MacBook Pro (which still looks great, BTW) still looks pretty much like an Aluminum PowerBook.
