Well, I have a PC [but want to get a mac...just dont have the $], and I imagine you guys don't want to see it [although my setup looks really nice]. These guys here are making it too hard. I just took all the cables going down, had them go down in one spot [behind a leg] and then used twist-ties every 6" or so and tied them into a nice bundle. Then, the ones going across, i put them under the glass, and taped them to the bottom of the glass. And, I had some going diagonal, so I brought them down behind a leg, and my desk has a little panel between the legs, so i tied them to that. The only wires you see are 2 nice neat bundles going straight down.
I bought an Apple Wireless Keyboard to go with my new iCurve and MS Optical Mouse and it makes typing so much easier! Plus it's really a great keyboard.

Haha. Worry not! He's got a nice lil home on my bookshelf, which he likes much better than being next to a Dell!

The light is from Lighting Direct in NZ - about $40US, comes in a few funky colors, of course mac owners are only allowed to own white ones!

Speakers are Creative I-Trigue 2.1 L3400, would have preferred the Creative I-Trigue 2.1 L345 as they come in white and match the imac.

Well, my dog got behind my sub and pulled out a ton of wires, so you can see the rats nest I had bakc there [but it wasn't visible yesterday]. This is about as clean as my desk gets.
Pictres are here
The TV Setup one is for a different thing, but its right next to my desk, and I use it to play games on.

Here's pics of my setup. The specs are in my sig. It's not normally this neat and tidy, but these were taken right after I finished cleaning up the place. The TV on the left which looks tiny compared to my monster center channel will be replaced with a larger HD set soon. Also, I need to get a cord channel to hide the wires coming down from the shelves. I used some of them to hide speaker wires and lamp cords in the back of the room (pics here), painted with the same color as the wall, and they look awesome. Computer specs are in my sig.

Looks nice....keep it tidy
el_avocado said:Wow, that's a lot of wires! Still, tho, fancy setup!
I pulled the sub out and took a picture, so you can see how many there really is. There used to be more, but then I moved my printer, scanner, router, and modem to a different room. That got rid of about 10 wires all together. I also took a picture of the wires behind my tv, now THAT is a mess. TV, TiVo, Dish reciever, Xbox, network, ugh!
The new ones are in my flickr
It doesn't look as nice as most of yours here....one reason. No mac. Boo hoo
