///Milien · Jun 25, 2005, 07:41 PM

We finally moved into our new place and here's the new set-up while I work on color of paint for my office.

Cadaver · Jun 26, 2005, 11:55 AM

Nice, Milian. Very nice.
I like the desk & shelves. Where are they from? If you look at my posts, you'll see I'm in need of a proper desk (I moved recently, so I need to buy something new).

///Milien · Jun 26, 2005, 01:58 PM

Cadaver,

I got the leaning shelf and bookcase from Crate & Barrel, which is perfect for my PowerBook. The desk for my G5 and ACD is from Storehouse furniture.

G5man · Jun 26, 2005, 08:29 PM

NICE Milien!

Groover · Jun 27, 2005, 02:02 PM

Here is my new PowerMac G5 2.3Ghz Dual w/ 23" HD Display

G5man · Jun 27, 2005, 06:11 PM

cool setup a little messy but the package was that iSight?

jhogarty · Jun 27, 2005, 10:31 PM

I had wanted to wait until I remodeled my home office, but am having a hard time setteling on the new desk and layout. So in the interim, pardon the mess.

This is my setup before my new Dual PM purchase. The PC on the left, with dual LCD's runs Windows XP Pro and was my graphics workstation (Lightwave, Video Toaster, Photoshop, etc).

This is my new setup. My old Graphics PC is still on the left, and my new baby is on the right.

Now my quest to find new office furniture.

How's that iCon book?

trancepriest · Jul 4, 2005, 01:20 PM

jhogarty · Jul 4, 2005, 05:17 PM

Kenneth - I like the book. Very good eye you have. :-) I'm almost done with it. I've learned alot of things I didn't know, prior to the book, especially about Apple, Pixar, Lucas and some other interesting things.

Trancepriest - nice setup!

Thanks for the comments. Yeah its all mine... took almost 2 years but all mine. I recently got the 22" Display next to the powerbook changed to a 23". A pic of the new setup is on my blog... http://clubbeat.tv/blog

The Cube, 15" display and 23" display were all for doing some some web work for a client. He paid me in equipment.

G5man · Jul 10, 2005, 10:58 PM

no wonder you want underground power and it makes sense cause otherwise you have to replace powerlines all the time which is silly

R!K · Jul 21, 2005, 07:52 PM

The obligatory shot of the boxes..

And up and running...

And yes, those are MS Keyboards. For all their faults, Microsoft do make exceeding nice input devices.

G5man · Jul 23, 2005, 01:49 AM

Nice!!!

OogaBooga · Jul 24, 2005, 11:10 PM

I finally got access to a decent camera to take some pics, but low and behold my setup sucks. I'll be purchasing a 20" Cinema Display soon to replace the aging meteorite sitting on my desk.

srekciba · Jul 26, 2005, 03:15 PM

New mac user from UK. Been programming PC's for years, then bought a mac mini. Then the flood gates were opened. My latest setup.

dual 2.7 G5 1GB RAM ATI9650 20inch ACD oh and loads of PC rubish.

Will post a some pictures as soon as I've sussed how to do it. I'm a bit green when it comes to forums.

G5man · Jul 26, 2005, 03:47 PM

nice and welcome the pic above not bad but need an LCD

R!K · Jul 26, 2005, 07:50 PM

Gah I've been so spoiled now, I got a 23" ACD with my G5 and I had been borrowing a friends 20 for a while before that. Of course I made the big mistake of plugging them both in for some dual-screen goodness. Gnnnf, I broke myself - now I'm going to have to order another 23 aren't I...

srekciba · Jul 27, 2005, 06:50 AM

Pictures (fingers crossed)

d.fine · Jul 27, 2005, 10:48 AM

Update on my working environment, just got back from a very nice vacation to Eqypt :

jhogarty · Jul 27, 2005, 10:51 AM

I like the wall colors and that kewl egyptian picture/painting. Very nice. What is that thing to the left of your keyboard and b4 your G5? A jog wheel?

J.

Jul 27, 2005, 10:54 AM

That is a PowerMate from Griffin Technology. It is a "pimped" version of a volume control, but the design is pretty cool, I think. You can also control applications or the system power with it.

d.fine · Jul 27, 2005, 10:57 AM

Thanks!

Yea, you can assign any button within any application to the PowerMate to do what you want. Very handy!

dark3lf · 08:07 PM

This is my beautiful new G5 DP 2.3 and my venerable old (but still HIGHLY used and useful) G4/400.

///Milien · 07:12 PM

I decided to clean-up some and revamp the home office a bit. Here's my new set-up:

window24me · Aug 27, 2005, 10:48 PM

12" 1 Ghz PowerBook (1.25 RAM) attached to a ViewSonic Pro series 20" (DVI). Hidden Win2K PC (AMD XP1800+) is hooked to second input on the ViewSonic and the DVI on the Samsung 17". Dreams of a DP MAC one day soon.

voo · Aug 28, 2005, 11:25 AM

Thats a great room ///Milien, the G5 really shows its true colours in there

I just can't get over the sheer size of that 30 inch, its a beast!
Though the way it looks being that close to the screen, do you not have to move your head for viewing?

///Milien · Aug 28, 2005, 11:46 AM

Thanks voo! I tend to lean on my chair while sitting so I don't have a problem with the sheer size of the screen. It's amazing how many different windows I can have open on this thing.

My new was display purchase last weekend at oakbrook apple store, a 23 inch ACD refresh for only 999.95. Even the apple sales rep can't believe their own pricing. Here is my new set-up: http://homepage.mac.com/jovits1/PhotoAlbum50.html

My previous set-up:http://homepage.mac.com/jovits1/PhotoAlbum40.html

Screwball · Aug 31, 2005, 06:20 AM

I've already asked, but nobody would bother!In such a case you have 2 or 4 gb of memory, do latencies
mean a thing?Corsair Valueselect modules come with latencies of 3-4-4-8-2T, whereas Kingston value modules come with latencies of 3-3-3-8-1T.I believe even in the world of mac, lower latency is faster.
Prove me wrong, if i'm not correct.I'd like to see clearly.

Now that is a bargain!, it looks so nice side by side with the MDD…
