I bought the FW case for $70 CDN and the USB 2.0 case for $50 CDN. I actually want to get 2 fw cases but they only have one left so I have to go USB 2 for the hard drive (only use it for temporary file backup)

The CD burner and HD I put in these cases are very old but they still work well. It would be a huge waste if I throw them away (and no one will buy them)

thanks a lot! now i just need to find that $39 Ebay auction

this looks very similar but I'm not sure if its the same so don't hold me to it.

NO! Don't go for this one. There is no power switch on this case. The only way to turn it on/off is to plug/unplug the power cord. Very clumsy

OK ok ok... I took all your advice. I am in the process of updating my pc(about 500 bucks into it) to make it a home theater/Gaming PC. My mac will be moved to to the desk and the PC will go next to the TV. I also added a 3g ipod to the setup and will add an external firewire hd once i get the new stuff for my pc. I can't open the ipod till christmas though.

I wont have the PC stuff until christmas because i can't spend 500 dollars on my teen budget but "Santa" can.

btw, going to get a sonata case for my PC because of its silence compared to other pcs. I will post a new pick as soon as everything gets in.

Cool. What kind of business are you in?

We're developing a linux based transparent clustering software that includes transparent memory, sockets and so forth ; it's a hybrid between software (linux kernel modified heavily by us) and a special hardware interface card+external box that we've developed.
Basically you start your linux application (must be processor intens and SMP capable) on the master node (one master node and up to twenty slave nodes) as usual and it automatically migrates the software on to the other nodes without the application having to be specially written or cluster capable. Any application more or less will work, like for an example a rendering engine for animation or film will automatically take advantage without the actual application being aware of it utilizing twenty+ machine's power and therefor completing its task much faster.

Everything is happening within the kernel space and the hardware space and we never actually migrate / copy the actual application on to the other machines (that would be a license violation in most cases after all, something we don't desire to do even if that would be the "easy" (relative to the task we're doing) way out), it just utlizes the memory and the cpu strenght..

anyway, the place is still under construction so it's a bit of a mess. The network is still being pulled on a few places, and the new server room isn't all set up yet, nor is all of the developers desks / workstations up working yet. That's the curse of moving, and that's the curse of expanding.

Neat place to work at tough!

I'm facinated.
If/when you guys publish some technical papers I'd love to read them.

Good luck in your endeavor.

Thanks, I'll let you know when we ship our public release. The "public" beta testing will begin the first of March so if you happen to be a part of any post production houses that wanna save a few bucks by paying a few bucks.. ;-)

How do you post a pic here?

That's so that you can link to an image on a website. Unfortunately, the MacNN forums don't host pictures themselves.

The beer is Sam Adams Old Fezziwig Ale. Its a spiced brew only produced in the winter. The glass itself is just a generic pilsner glass that I've had for a while, not sure where I got it.

As for the 17" it will be gone soon, I'm looking for its replacement now. Check out this thread

What are you using to prop your camera up (I assume you use it for iChat AV)? I have a similar Canon cam.

This is my first post, sorry I'm late to the party. Here are some pics of a really old and current office setups:

The above link also has a few pics of my work-in-process G4 Cube Macquarium...

I have some other pictures somewhere of offices where I had a NeXTstation and 20th Anniversary Macintosh somewhere and will put them up when I find them...

Not as fancy or powerful as others, but the works always gets done!

Current machines and a 15" and 17" iMac LCD SD and a 12" G4 iBook.

Nice comfortable setup. Like the "Picasso Mac" poster! That's a classic.

yeah, how do you like that tivoli radio? worth the $100?

[Agent69]

The table radio is simply awesome. The sound is really very good, far better than I expected for a mono. They are also making a stereo version now, which I haven't seen in person.

[tramahound]

I've seen it in crutchfield, but never heard it. it's basically a second box just like the one on your desk but with just another speaker.
