It also has roughly the same pattern as the above pic, but perhaps a little wider.

As you can tell, I'm considering it :-)

As I recall the fella who posted that picture (whom I *don't* recall) said this was actually a counter top he purchased and mounted to the wall. I believe that IKEA does sell these or some like it. However I'm unable to confirm that because IKEA in all their wisdom doesn't think anyone in the middle portion of the U.S is interested in affordable design.

(I'm in Colorado, and while I don't think I'd kill to have an IKEA in driving distance, I'd have to think about it for minute)

You're really up to date arent you!

Ha! I've had the CM case for well over 2.5 years.

The guts have been swapped 3 times though. heh

Hey guys ! What jobs do you have to be able to pay for a PMG5 and 30" display ?

I'll follow your steps

Andy8 · May 7, 2005 , 06:30 PM

Buging Apple stock in early 2004 would have been a good start!

Anyway, I think everyone is in marketing/video editing

When we're talking about competition, having a good stuff to work with is no compromise

Nice setup, BZ.

jasonsRX7 · May 13, 2005 , 07:30 PM

I like the wire loom I see on the floor. Nice attention to detail, more people need to clean up their wires. I use raceway on the back of my desk to route cables and keep them off the floor. Good job, BZ, awesome setup.

I am big about wires. First of all, my feet go down there, so I don't want them sitting in a bunch of wires. Secondly it catches all sorts of dust, etc.

You can't see it, but am using Cable Safe Cable Manager behind the G5 and thinking about putting another on the other side. It takes an extra hour or so to set up your computer, but it is worth it in the end.

My G5 + 20"ACD I got yesterday

and my gf's G4 with 17"CRT ...
Still need to get the new iSight stand to use with the ACD. Forgot to get it, was so excited to get home and try the ACD...

UnixMac · May 15, 2005 , 09:42 AM

congrats d.fine, and welcome to the G5 club!

Now the G4 will be like chopped liver in your room... you may as well just pace it in the paper... I got $600 for mine with monitor.

tramahound · May 16, 2005 , 10:02 AM

Hey UnixMac, how loud is that Raptor you're running in your G5? I'm interested in getting one, but I'm worried it will be too loud. Is it worth the premium also? Is it noticeably quicker?
Thanks

Hey, nice setup. And nice Mug!!! Where can I get one of those?

Hanul · May 24, 2005 , 02:05 PM

I got the mug as a present. Gravis, a German Apple reseller had them for some time. Don't know, if they still sell the mugs.

Turn your desks 90º so you aren't facing the wall! The world looks better that way. sam

What happened to your mac mini and PB, and where and what kind of desk is that, it's so nice especially your setup with it.
