Hi kitki83, yes I do make money off of Second Life, that is why I do what I do and have what I have. Everything except for the PC (I started out with the PC) was funded with a few years of building and being a land baron on TSL/TG.
Got a tip for us?

Wow... I had no idea there was so much money to be had in that game. Do you have a blackbook and a MBP?
Nice! Talk about entrepreneur. How did you start all that and how'd you get into it?
No offense, but can you guys have that conversation via PM or in another thread? Lately I've been getting notifications for this Post Your Mac Setup thread and I feel like I'm only getting to see pictures 1 out of every 15 posts. Let's either post pictures of setups, or talk directly about those setups.
synergy across 2 computers
Just installed Synergy on my Macbook and my Vista box. I use the same monitor for both systems, absolutely fantastic piece of software!
He has this, I believe. It also functions as a screen cleaner so you can wipe stuff off of your screen if it gets dirty.
Here's my setup. If you search the threads...youll find my old setup (with a PC!) People got angry that I posted a PC in the mac setup thread! Now I can post legitamately.
Setup: 24" iMac, HK Soundsticks II, Dell 700m, 30GB iPod
Edit: sorry for the quality of the pictures. I took them with my 5 MP camera, but they were too large to be uploaded, so I went back to "preview" and resaved them at a lower quality...I don't know how to reduce teh resolution so for those of you with smaller screens, I apologize.

Well,for me I smoke some times near my computer....so I don't want anything to get in there...
Heh, I got my 20-inch Dell monitor just a couple days ago. It's pretty sweet.
I use one from ShaggyMac, myself, that covers the keyboard and trackpad/palmrest area. Aside from protecting the screen when closed (as has already been mentioned), I primarily got one to keep dust from collecting on the keyboard and trackpad. I leave my MacBook open, sitting on an iCurve stand. I use the MacBook as a secondary screen, and have a 20" LCD connected as the primary. Got rid of all of my other computers and just use this setup (for now).
