Chandru's iMac setup

I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks for the photos. I hope to joyfully unpack a new iMac 17" in the next 30 days. The screen looks great in those pix. Enjoy.

Awesome. It's so beautiful I'm sorta jealous.

I can hardly wait until my quicksilver gets back with all new plastics :drool: It'll be soooo beautiful!

cnarayan · Mar 3, 2003, 03:22 AM

Very nice and interesting collection of photos. Thanks for sharing.

Anand · Mar 3, 2003, 03:54 PM

Who knew, Seatle looks just like Poitiers!

Ricky · Mar 3, 2003, 04:23 PM

Those are some great pictures, thanks for sharing!

Enjoyed the iMac pictures, but I couldn't help but notice.. I have that same couch in my house.

"The Chamelon"! I love changing the configuration...

Well, that is quite a coincidence !! We love the Chameleon too. The iMac looks great with it !!

Thanks for the nice comments about the pictures. Post yours if you can.

Yes, Seattle looks just like Poitiers - what do you know !! I love this city !!

ebisix · Mar 3, 2003, 11:41 PM

Great pictures! This PC I'm using really looks horrible compared to the iMac.

chrisutley · Mar 4, 2003, 02:15 AM

Looks like a Pottery Barn catalog.

Pottery Barn should sell iMacs in different patterns..

DAlex · Mar 5, 2003, 03:39 PM

Damn, those 17" iMacs are sweet.

rotomas · Mar 9, 2003, 01:46 PM

my new iMac

Jerommeke · Mar 9, 2003, 04:07 PM

whow, when I see all those imac g4 computers, it makes me want one SO deeply however I'm a student who should stayh happy with his 500 mhz imac g3 for some while.

Eciton · Mar 9, 2003, 04:12 PM

As a future switcher, I blame you guys for my current predicament

With your blatantly saliva-inducing pictures you have torn half of my lust away from the tibook to the imac, and I'm now experiencing a slew of sleepless nights while I ponder my requirements.

Damn you. Damn you all.

(Not really, of course - thanks for the great pics!)

Bombia · Mar 10, 2003, 10:07 AM

Sweeeet! Thanks for the great pics, guys! If you have more to post, please share!

Zoom_zoom · Mar 14, 2003, 12:54 AM

Hey those pictures are great!
You have now got me wanting my 17" imac even more, it will be in on monday (it is currently friday)

funkboy · Mar 14, 2003, 02:04 AM

Interesting placement of the iMac. I have mine on the only place I have for it - the desk in my room. It works great, and I love it, just about the perfect distance from my head, too.

I'm wondering how you like it on your coffee table, and how you have the power cords running - I'd love to have my iMac on a coffee table, but I have no table in front of my couches at home. I had it on a table beside my couch, but that was just too difficult since your head kept having to turn sideways.

I guess I'm trying to think of the best way to integrate an iMac into a home.

I would suggest buying the Mac first, then building your house around it!

Great pictures cnarayan.

By the way what kind of telescope are you using ?

There's only one cure and it can be found at Cure for Apple Lust

After you click there, choose the appropriate cure for your pain. It may take a couple days for the full effects to be realized, but once the cure sets in, things will never be the same again.

Like they say, once you go Mac you won't go back!

Bombia · Mar 18, 2003, 04:30 PM

I got my new iMac today and I feel so damn happy!

Oh, rest assured I will do just that in the next couple of weeks

. Thankfully I have the wonder of an education discount to make the whole thing even more appealing... and just FYI, the PowerBook has lost out to the iMac! I'll post my own pics to this thread just as soon as it arrives

Thanks folks!

Eciton · Mar 18, 2003, 05:50 PM

Apologies for the double post - I think the MacNN servers are playing up again...

Thanks, the iMac is doing just great !!
I am using a Nexstar 5 telescope and Olympus 730 UZ camera. The 10X zoom sure comes in handy.
