Here's my new iMac 20" which arrived today(the first of the estimated delivery days)
The screen is perfect 😉
I'm not so much messy as.. disorganised.

Wow I have that same calculator. Every makes fun of me cause I do. Its an awsome one till you have to do any polar graphing. But other then that its ok.
This is my setup. Now, I know many people are wondering what the point of getting a laptop is if it is hooked to an external display, mouse, and keyboard all the time. Well, it isn't always hooked to them, only at the end of the day. For the most part of the day, the MBP is always with me, whether it be in my bag, on my lap, on a desk, or in a coffee shop. I bring this thing everywhere. I got the external display, though, because I'd rather edit video on a 22" monitor than on a 15". That is my reasoning. Hope ya'll enjoy!

How do you like the wireless keyboard? I ordered one from Amazon yesterday and its coming on Friday! So excited.
I'm looking for a new desk. Something with a similar wood color but that's a little bit bigger. Anyone have some suggestions? I'm thinking of the MIKAEL desk from IKEA but it means I'll be taking a trip to Canada. Does anyone else have this desk?
Man I love your setup 🙂
Im also looking for a new, bigger desk so suggestions will be nice
Also, I see that you're using the JBL Creature II's and was wondering where you've hidden the subwoofer, Im interested in getting these but am a little short on real estate on top of my desk
Subwoofers are much more effective when placed on the floor.
I'd hedge my bets that he has it by his feet.
Some new pics with a cleaner desktop:

Nice to see another guy/gal using old Pentax gear! I personally have a K1000D, an MX, an ME Super, an MV & an MV1. Love them all to bits.24p film camera with fisheye 😛
I've got to find out where everybody is getting these stickers from - all I can find online are large ones (as in 2"*8") but I have no space for large ones left on my MacBook & am in dire need of some smaller ones to intersperse them with!
you would be correct. it's on the floor to the right of my desk. you can just see the corner of it in the picture.

Nice setup, but i'm wondering how did you turn your screen portrait ? Is there a special vesa mount you can get which uses the original stand ?
nope i just did it the cheapest way possible. it's just sitting on the stand and leaning on the neck. it's angled enough so i don't have to worry about it tipping.
Say, what are those lamps? They're really nice!
And did you know your forum name roughly means "ground thought" in German?

Those lamps are simple and inexpensive ikea lamps. Around 4 Euro/piece.
The word grundgedanke means something like "basic idea" here in germany. Shoudn't translate it word by word 🙂
Have those hard drives worked good for you? How long have you have them? I really want to get a 500GB one, but the reviews on newegg made me feel nervous about buying one. A lot said they sucked and died. Does it have support for Firewire, because thats what I want.
