What's that large thing next to it which looks like a cross between a subwoofer and a small PC case?

I like the Delorean on your window sill.
Makes me wanna watch Back To The Future.
mine..
Erm, is that PowerMac G4 not got a case? For Gods sake, put some clothes on!
EDIT: Just took a closer look, and the computer I am referring to is next to the PowerMac G4 (the one with the can on). In retrospect it doesnt look like a PowerMac G4 at all...
its actually a Blue & White G3 400. the plastics are off because they are currently on the other side of canada being painted with high grade car paint.
I use it for bit torrent and wanted to paint it as I hate the aqua colour. it will be painted somewhat close to the G4 MDD colours. I even bought a set of 4 handles on ebay from a sawtooth G4. they will look much better with the glossy grey car paint as they are 100% transparent vs the B&W handles that are kinda foggy transparent. the B&W handles will be painted though..

Temporary setup (while I'm at my parents' house for winter break).
Mac Mini 1.66GHz Core Duo w/ 1GB of RAM
Samsung 940BW
Western Digital myBook 160GB external HD
Installing WoW lol... don't care if it has subpar performance
NICE. i just picked up a 250gb of the mybook for 120CAD. it is awesome.
Damn man, i was in the market for a nice external HD a few months ago. Do you have craigslist up there in Canada? If so, check it, because i got lucky and found a 320GB maxtor drive (brand new) for 110. Guess i just got lucky!
OOOoooooh! Post pics when you put it back together! I had to hold off my G3/450 server project for now and I'm so going to paint mine when I get it. Sweet.
subs are meant to be on the floor!
haha they are? aww but then i would have to move wires and the desk and... oh forget it its stayin where it is hahaha
Gorgeous monitor. I absolutely love the looks of those Dell's. Jeez, though, 24"?! I just got a 19" for Christmas, and I feel a bit overwhelmed by the screen realestate. I was considering getting a 24" iMac before college instead of a MP, but now if I do go the iMac route, this new monitor I got has convinced me to stick with the 20" model.

yeah lol, you should leave them on the ground
at best, they should be at the corner of a room so it amplifies the bass
Ahhh....
I was going to call you out on the actual size of your monitor, but i'm just not 100% sure. I have a 2407WFP with the same keyboard and nano sitting in the dock. The keyboard should look smaller in relation to the monitor. I can make my keyboard look as big as it does in your pictures by setting it at the very edge of the desk, but I can't get my Nano to look that big no matter where I place it on the desk. It must be my desk. I have one of those self-healing cutting mats that takes up nearly the whole surface of my desk. It has a grid on it that makes it hard the fake scale no matter what angle you're looking at it. Oh well, nice setup.
Edit: Oh! I know what it is! It's that little shelf that you're right speaker is sitting on. It's playing tricks on my eyes. Sorry to doubt you.
Heres a pic of my new setup. I just got the Dell 24" monitor, its great! Now I just need some real speakers.
