Maybe he uses it connected to a TV with Frontrow. Sometimes I wish I could turn off the macbook's screen when it's connected to the TV.

you can- close it, wake it back up with the remote. only the external LCD is acknowledged, and thus graphic performance is greatly increased.

((I've had some problems with this since 10.4.9, however.))

Yup, Comic Life. I've never played with it before, but it was definitely fun (if a bit frustrating since I kept mis-clicking stuff. Y'know, 'cause it was 2 a.m. and all).
When Vin Diesel pops a can of Pringles, the fun stops after about fifteen minutes.

Does that work if it's just a normal TV, not some fancy-schmancy LCD?

I found then at Menards. They also came with a smaller, 3-light, desk sized version that's on the right corner of the desk out of the picture.
They double as space heaters in the winter.

That means that they have been removed from whatever server they were hosted on, so they can no longer be displayed.

I was just thinking today how cool it would be to throw a black topcase on the whitebook... did you argue with applecare about excessive stainding? That was the strategy I came up with today...

Is it just me or does nearly every setup on this page have the same speakers? What are they? I remember Wharfedale using yellow coloured cones...

The speakers in my photo are a pair of B&W DM 601 s3. They sound great.

Hehe. Mine do resemble the others, but they're actually just $50 Sony bookshelf speakers. They make really nice computer speakers though paired with my subwoofer.

My macbook died so I bought a new one (same spec) and swapped the HD. It's like using the same machine (cause it is!). Only difference is the core duo vs. the newer core 2 duo. Big deal.

A black carpet is under my keyboard and mouse. Since the desk is glass and the optical mouse will not work, so hence the black carpet. I also employ a wrist rest.

If you are referring to the last picture in the series, I was merely showing the cable management.

Maybe we can do a trade. I'd love to swap out some of my black keys with white keys. PM me if you are interested.

AppleCare didn't take care of the Macbook that died? That seems strange that you had to by another.

They have to be releasing a new case design for the Macbook Pro and when they do I'm upgrading to the current Gen Macbook Pro refurb baby. They will be so cheap.
