LOL.

LOL I'm going to eventually replace that CRT with another screen.. the one on the floor was the usual there.. but the video cord broke (too bad, it was my favorite monitor second to my cinema display!)

Hrmm.. disco ball and the lamp? That lamp is my mom's.. it's currently there because right on the other side of my table is the living room and it actually looks pretty good there. Right on the other side of the corner is my stuff (lemme guess. hell?) I actually kinda like to turn down the lights and shoot a spotlight up at the disco ball sometimes.

Hrm.. the PCs? Well they are better then beige boxes, I give you that. I kinda went the extra 9 yards to make them a little more aesthetically pleasing.

thats my dual 867/1 GB RAM/2 x 80 GB HD/Radeon 9000 running @ 1600 x 1200 on a NEX Multisync 97F.

I got that same system and love it. I havent even thought about getting a g5. I think that system has been one of the best g4 values over the last few updates.

Link · Sep 16, 2003, 01:04 AM

loh.. the dp867 totally rawks. 2 updates after I got mine they made a killer machine that had every bit of juice mine has ^_^

I dunno, personally, as long as it's a daulie, it's good. The dual 1.25 is currently the best value g4.. and they're awesome machines, not to mention shiny.

While the g5 is sexy.. it's not cheap enough yet.. and won't be for a while.

Wow, kinky.

ROTFLMAO.

I love Saturday Night Fever as well, but I sure a flying hell wouldn't want Travolta or a diso ball next to my Mac.

Don't worry. I'm just kidding (because I'm jealous of your Cinema Display).

How can you put that building on your desk, and put the beautiful G4 below your desk?

Probably because that MONSTER won't fit under his desk....

Come to think of it, is anyone's desk big enough to fit that under?

That monster can HOLD the table up if it wanted to.

TheMosco · Oct 1, 2003, 09:46 PM

Well, its about 20 inches high, which is about the same as a G5, so its really not that big. It just looks so big in the picture because of the angle. Looking at the G5 specs, its pretty much the exact same depth and width too.

The G5 looks smaller because about 4 inches of it are just handles.

StudioRTA desk. G4 still under there but the new Dual G5er is coming on tuesday to replace it. Can't wait.

Now, all I need's a decent camera. Ex got that so I'm shooting with my Sony DV corder.

dennis88 · Oct 12, 2003, 08:26 AM

@ DeltaOP

Yuo shouldn't place the mx700 docking so close to your screen.
In the manual it says you have place it atleast 20cm away.

Kenneth · Oct 13, 2003, 12:55 AM

sorry for the flash...

dennis that's for CRTs because the magnetic interference is so high it can scrwe with the base (and the base can screw with the screen even more so)..

He's alright

scottiB · Oct 13, 2003, 02:00 PM

Hmmm... Perhaps I should order a G5, so he'd have more room.

Okay, that's HILARIOUS. I've laughed over the Mac photos before, but this HAS to be tops. The FedEx lady must have been flabbergasted

killergator · Oct 18, 2003, 09:07 PM

Actually she was a mac user who was just as excited about giving me my dual 2.0 as I was at getting it. You like apple? how about that apple?
