what mousepad are you using gnome>?

-a

gnomexp · Mar 12, 2007, 02:26 AM

The mouse and mousepad are Razer Pro|Solutions. They work great except my apartment is dusty as heck. Maybe I should clean more. xD

The lighting is two 8 watt Liesta yellow florescent tubes and one set of white Trettioen LEDs (which I had originally) to whiten it up a bit. They are mounted with ease using command strips.

Some nice and expensive tech there, but if it were me I'd invest a couple hundred dollars or so in a more accommodating desk and burying some wires. You know, for a more Apple like, clean appearance.

Sub · Mar 19, 2007, 07:30 PM

Burn.

Sub · Mar 19, 2007, 07:54 PM

Top gear rules. Oh, and I have the exact model PowerBook, rock on, dude.

Get the Cable Zipper from the Container Store. It looks better and looks more organized.

You'll have to send some pictures with your ZIPPED up cables. :-)

FrozenTaco · Mar 19, 2007, 10:57 PM

Here's mine, pretty basic! PowerBook G4 1.33 GHz, and iPod whatever-generation-was-right-before-color-screens. Guess that stuff can almost be considered old now, huh? The hp 4-in-1 saves tons of space...

How can you have your MacBook closed while having that external display? Whenever I try that my MB just goes to sleep

MacBook works closed when you external keyboard and mouse. It goes to sleep when closed, but pressing the keyboards wakes it up.

lllRock4himlll · Mar 22, 2007, 12:14 AM

Thank you, I figured it was something like that but I wasn't sure. I guess I need to get an external keyboard then, having my MacBook open all the time when I have my external display is becoming bothersome.

does that mean the display is on while its closed?

monkeybrain · Mar 22, 2007, 08:42 PM

Indeed, all the Macbooks can run an external display when the lid is closed (as long as there is an external keyboard and mouse attached, and you're running off external power). For more info, when you are in the Finder, click on the Help menu and choose Mac Help. Then search for 'external', the first result it shows will tell you all. Also, everything is in that little physical manual Apple supplied with the Macbook.

Ray · Mar 22, 2007, 11:54 PM

can somebody please tell me how to post pictures on here

post_break · Mar 23, 2007, 03:09 PM

3d matrix screensaver running as my desktop

What I really need a good USB hub and a 360 vision cam to make this complete.

Core Duo with N woot!

Sub · Mar 23, 2007, 07:23 PM

I love that phone, care to share the brand/model so I can look it up on eBay?

Ray, go to an image uploader website:

Imageshack
Photobucket
Tinypic, etc. Just click browse, select the file on your desktop through the site, then upload it. When it gives you the different codes, copy and paste the code with the [IMG] into your text, then it will show up when you post.

Ray · Mar 23, 2007, 09:33 PM

what code are you talking about my pictures are on flixtr?

The phone was painted by me. It was a simple brown plain old telephone. I got it from a garage sale for $2. "ITT" on the back. ITT is the manufacturer.

Sub · Mar 23, 2007, 11:22 PM

Just spray paint, then?

Ray, when you get an image code that has been uploaded, you are offered a few different codes:

Examples: <a hrefs
.jpgs
[img]s

This forums supports codes with [img] tags on the ends, post images with these tags.

Ray · Mar 23, 2007, 11:43 PM

alright i think i got it thanks Sub

Thanks for posting my picture!!! I'm going to get a new desk and speakers today.
Andhee
I got my stand at the apple store. It's the Griffin Elevator. Works good when your using an external monitor. I think it was 40 bucks.

Ray · Mar 24, 2007, 01:56 PM

FINALLY!!! Figured it out. So easy to lol. Sorry for all the mess ups never been in a forum before.

Andhee · Mar 25, 2007, 01:18 PM

Congratulations on that Ray! Reckon you can do it again when you get your new sound system? lol. Oh yeh, Yesterday I bought that Dell monitor, hopefully it will arrive sometime soon =]. I'll post pics after that.

Ray · Mar 25, 2007, 11:05 PM

Andhee
Yea I need some speakers lol, but I'm still deciding on wich ones. What size Dell are you getting?
I bought a desk today because I had my setup ontop of a DJ table. lol

http://flickr.com/photos/rayaguilar/434516886/

Any suggestions for an afforadable sound system?

post_break · Mar 26, 2007, 12:26 AM

My sound system is a regular home audio cd changer made by aiwa. It was cheap and it pounds.

Ray · Mar 26, 2007, 02:20 PM

yea I was using my home stereo too. Its just looks kind of wierd, but for now while I save it'll do.

Andhee · Mar 26, 2007, 04:36 PM

flippin heck Ray! That piece of kit you have got there looks mighty fine! Oh yeh, I bought some new speakers recently which can be found here. I'm from the UK and they cost me £58, which is about $130. They are truly amazing though, the quality is crisp clear and it can go very loud when you want it to! They'd look really nice next to your ACD screen!.

I've ordered the 20" 2007WFP monitor, I hope its amazing =D. What size is yours? Looks nice btw

!

Ray · Mar 26, 2007, 06:42 PM

Andhee
Those speakers look mighty nice. My ACD is the 23''. Once you have your setup you should post some pictures up.

Andhee · Mar 27, 2007, 01:28 PM

Heyyy, was looking forward to taking some pictures today, but they ended up sending me the wrong model! DOH! I've contacted them though so I should recieve the one I ordered sometime soon.

mike322 · Mar 30, 2007, 04:09 PM

Am I missing something here? I thought this thread was for pictures of macs...

Ray · Mar 31, 2007, 09:09 PM

Andhee,
The screen looks good but whats up with the laptop. This is a "mac forum". lol I like the speakers too.

hldan · Apr 1, 2007, 01:28 PM

Yeah Andhee dude, sorry to be rude but you need to get that stuff outta here and pronto! This is a Mac picture thread. It's forgiven if you have both a Mac and a PC sitting over in the corner but not that Toshiba by itself. Re-read the forum topic. In fact this whole forum is about Macs.
