Post Your Room Thread!

[MacAztec]

Well, I am in need of adding on to my room. I wanted to see what everyone else has done to get ideas. Heres mine...

By the way, this photo was taken in like January, but my room is still the same.

[MacAztec]

Here is one more photo. Sorry about the quality. They were originally like 2048x1024, at 1.6MB. I had to compress em down to 32k.

[evoluzione]

well, i have none recently, i've had a bit of a reshuffle, but, here's some pics to my apartment this time last year......

Ah-hah! A pseudo setup thread! I shall post shots when I get home, then you can all gaze at my collection of old Macs. See the "What computers do you have?" thread for a list of them.

[nospleen]

Here is my computer room in my house. If you look to the left you can see the pic I drew of my chihuahua, named mac. (not after the computer, i just liked the name.)

I wonder if shadowfax0 even cleaned up this room (http://forums.macrumors.com/attachment.php?postid=101707) :eek:

Nah, actually the glass that I think actually says Shoneys or something. You will have to forgive me, I glanced at it quick and I have been behind on sleep. Heh. Guiness is still great.

I wish we could paint the walls in our current appartment. Maybe after we move in August.

[MacAztec]

Thats pretty sweet. Lotta computers there.

If I were you, I would set it up more elegant. Even if you dont have an ultra desk, just...I dunno. I will post a pic of my gaming PC next...

[ibookin']

My room. With many peoples iBooks... Mine, über's and another guy's (that doesn't post here)... plus the iMac, a couple of iPods, my cell phone, and my Palm Vx.

[MacAztec]

This is the gaming PC. And as you can see, my dad is playing a game...:rolleyes:

[MacAztec]

This is the....uhh...desk. Used to be an LCD there, but we use the PC for the LCD. This monitor IS nice, its an AppleVision. My dad said it was really expensive when he bought it. Its pretty clear too. Does 1280x1024 at 75Hz. I guess thats good for a 5 year old monitor.

Hmmm...is that a joke? Or do you not have a good camera...

[garzy]

i live in a basement, with a couch (which i sleep on), tv, and my powerbook
the couch sucks, its falling apart

medea, it looks like you have a really nice apartment
where did you get those lights in the first pic? those are awesome

[garzy]

MacAztec

is your dad is using an apple keyboard with his pc?!?!
does that even work?

[MacAztec]

It works fine. I use the pro keyboard when I play, but he likes the ones that came with the original iMacs and stuff....

[MacFan25]

medea - i like your apartment. i looks real nice.

if i had a decent camera then I would post some pics, but i don't. :p

[G4scott]

You guys are pathetic... I should get the 'messiest room award'.

I'll let you see for yourself. Oh, and I hope you like my cube :p :D

Thanks, and the lights are from Ikea.

The thing the PowerBook is sitting on is the lid to a rubbermaid box. The sides are just wide enough to hold it up enough to allow air to flow under it. It's much cheaper than other stands, and I don't have to worry about it tipping over.

The headphones are Sony MDR-V300's. They are really good headphones. Lots of bass, and almost no distortion at comfortable sound levels. If you go too loud, they sound like crap, but headphones weren't made for loud. For loud, you can't see my Creative 2.1 digital speakers. Those white speakers are also connected to it via the little radio tuner by the bed. The sub is just under that shelf. I can rock the house when I want to.

I really need to clean my room, though...

[janey]

ibookin'@mwny's room...he doesn't have all these computers though...my iBook is on the left, his in the middle, one of my friends on the right, the iMac belongs to his school, his iPod next to the iMac, mine connected to my friend's iBook, ibookin's PC under the desk...(kinda doing this for him as a favor...don't get how he can do anything on dialup :D)

I would hardly call it a LAN party... A LAN party would involve a bunch of guys in a garage with home-built Windows PCs (I've been to those, though). A LAN party has games and a fast connection, too, and I am lacking in the broadband department, as über said.

I agree it is way too much iChat. We probably should have put something else on the machines to take the picture... :rolleyes:

Holy crap G4scott, I would like to witness Steve Jobs face if he sees a mac in that kind of environment...:eek: he'll probably either get a heart-attack or retire. Or both.

...but at least you have got some taste when it comes to computers (and headphones, I've got the same;))

It's like a where's waldo. Look at the poster behind the desk. I put it there to make it look like I had a cube :p

Anyways, my room isn't always that messy. It's just that I'm getting ready for college, trying to finish high school, and do a million other things at once, and cleaning the room just hadn't made its way to the top of the priority list...

Besides, half the crap in there is my brother's...

Are they connected in any way with a local Macintosh Group? I think that it's great that you belong to a group! I'm sure that the support you get is worth the time you spend! ;)

it's a party!!!! not a group!!! besides macs honestly suck when it comes to games and i usually take my PC.
but yes i am part of my local MUG, and in the iTeens MUG as well...it's awesome.
i'm about to start a new mug (not online) up though because los angeles has a lot of specialized groups and nothing much for teens.

I appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions! ;) I'm sure that your parent are very proud of you!

Has the Mac OS X made any improvement in the game area, in you opinion?

What will be the theme of your new group?

[evoluzione]

übergeek - yeah I know what a lan is thanks darlin' :) I just never heard of a lan party, kind of drew a blank as to what it would be all about.

[beatle888]

lan parties are for the truly dorky types. sorta like when two of my friends and i considered installing OSX on one of his systems on new years eve. we didnt though thank god :D we were waiting for the drink and be merry party goers to show up. still the fact that we thought about it was extremely revealing for me. :D
hello my name is beatle888 and im a dork.

Figured that someone would ask about that... He's an artist who lives in L.A. named Joe Bey. The paintings belong to my dad, but my mom hates them so they are banished to my room. I like them, so this was good.
