New stuff, new setup picture

edit: nifty thing about the universal dock is that i can plug any ipod i have into it and itll work. reduced so much desk clutter by just having the one i want at the time in there, and putting the rest in the desk. if you are wondering about the stickies on the wall, a blank wall = writers block. a wall with ideas on it = no more writers block got it from a movie, seems to help

Thank you! The box underneath the cable is Cinema HD Display Power Adapter. I would rather put it under the table, but the cable is too short to do this.

Maybe you could secure it underneath the desk somehow?

I don't see how it can cause any damage, it basically just snaps on. Looks ok to me.

So its absolutely tight and doesnt wobble in any way? I guess I was just concerned that it wasnt an absolute perfect/snug fit and that without pads in there it might nick up the case.

Nope, no wobbling. Fits perfect.

Video is very good, yet not perfect. expose is smooth, dashboard does not feel perfect, but it's difficult to notice any lag. everyday work is very smooth, except using Loupe tool in Aperture. everything else is just fine. someday I will get macbook pro, but now macbook is more than enough for me really.

I haven't noticed any scratches because of the case. There should not be any, because it does not move on the case. However, I'm not that picky about the scratches and they do not bother me.

Hi all. Long time lurker posting for the first time. Finally, after months of dithering i decided to replace my aging eMac.
Should i get an iMac or Macbook Well, after my first visit to the London Apple Store to see these in the flesh i fell in love with the Macbook. Then more dithering, brand new or refurb, Core Duo or Core 2 Duo
Decided on a refurbished Core Duo black from the online Apple Store for £699. Ordered on Sunday and it arrived two days later.





Bought a set of Cool Feet which are great. Would like to buy the Mare Ware protection kit i keep seeing in photos but can't find a stockist in the UK. Can anyone help?

I'd read on forums before about refurbished Macs coming with higher specs than those advertised. This came with 1GB instead of the advertised 512MB. It also came with a USB Modem and Mini-DVI to VGA adapter. Are these usually extra if you buy brand new?
