Post Your Mac Setup: Past & Present!

[UMHurricanes34]

Well I have mobile set up so everythin is in the back-pack.
I had this powerbook since I was 15 and im 17 now.
From left to right
iPod Shuffle 512mb, TiBook 1Ghz/512MB, 6x8 Bluetooth Tablet and USB Bluetooth adaptor.

Love the TiBook man, those were quite the creation...
Beautiful machines.
How is that BT Tablet? I am looking into getting one of those, how is it?

[iGary]

A couple of people asked me to put up (and these are crappy) pics of the new setup.

I noticed your signature, do you still have that 1TB external HD? - I think you had one.. idk

So what's the verdict? Is the 30" better than 2?

jeepers that display is huge! the bluetooth keyboard looks tiny :D

One thing though, is it not odd haveing to move your head to see round the screen ? :p

Beautiful as always Gary... :D

Nice, keep the cats away from this one, iGary. ;)

peace | neut

Absolutely. I can now view my images at 50% resolution, and with Expose, getting to the apps are no prolem. Big mistake on my part. Should have gone to the 30 from the start, at least in my line of work (photography and color correction).

Very happy with the new member - thanks, all.

[iGary]

It is under the desk because it is so effing loud. Lacie and I are at War currently. :rolleyes:

[Eevee]

Really sweet iGary!!! Nice setup. Now to convince my wife to get a 30 inch screen.

[wongulous]

That's awesome, iGary! I heart you for your 30" member. ;)

[rickvanr]

iGary, very nice monitor. I love my 23, and I can only imagine how much nicer the 30 is. Congrats on the new family member.

[lfielder06]

The 30" is so awe inspiring. At the Apple store I love to watch people just walk up to it with their mouth's open. :p I can't imagine what it is like to accually have on in your home.

[w_parietti22]

:eek: :eek: :eek:

It makes your *Dell* look so small and insignificant! :D Nice Tiger desktop (on the Dell) but you might want to change the theme to silver instead of blue. It'll look better.

[mjstew33]

fun. I hate that. I had a 300GB LaCie and sold it cause it was to loud.

How is that BT Tablet? I am looking into getting one of those, how is it?

I love it, two things to remember
Inkwell does not work with the current drivers that come with the tablet.
The tablet everymonth will not be able to power on when you push the power button. People do not know whats wrong but the solution to the problem is to remove and put back the battery and it works.

Bettery is very good, 20plus hours. Distance is good, i can use it around the house. I use it to present in class and piss off the tablet PC teachers.

[UMHurricanes34]

iGary, congrats on the upgrade...did you sell off the two 20"s?
I love the setup, still the best looking setup I have ever seen

Anyhow my problem is that they don't do advance replacement, so I have to get through ~850GB of work, and/or get through enough work that I can get it down to using Toast 7 for spanning-about-a-hundred-DVDs-to-back-up what I couldn't get to. Then I have to wait a couple of weeks before they send me a repaired, refurbished or new drive.

I wish they did advance replacement! If they were actually serious about being in the storage business, they would do that.

Here is an older pic of mine, although a lot has changed, it is one of my favorite photo.
15" PB 1.5GHz 2GB Ram
iCurve
Creature II (been moved)
Altec Lansing FX
iPod mini 2G 4GB (I am an iPod "adder" and love to collect iPods, I have tons)
BT KB + Mouse
Much has changed, but I am re-doing my office at the moment so no updated pics just yet, will have them soon. I'm also going to get the next update of PowerMacs so I will wait until everything is done to post a pic.
That's freakin' sweet!!! The colors are so coordinated!!

Not sure how well the general techs get paid, but good ultrasound, CT or MR techs can make a very nice living. The job market is strong at present, and I don't see it declining any time soon.

Since this room will be rearranged, the desk will be going in a corner again except a different corner, so this will work out great. The desk is going to in front of a window, hard to explain without drawing up a floorplan, but I'll leave it to your imagination :p

Based on his signature I would reckon that's the 400mm 2.8L, AWESOME lens. I have no where near the pocketbook to support it (nearly $6600 :eek: :eek: ) but have shot threw one of these once....and only once. Nice.

Edit: My setup is coming shortly, I have to clean up a bit first. I just moved back from school for another three months, so stuff is everywhere and even if I took the pic, you couldn't see the PB :p

1. PowerMac 7100 in November 1995, had a 80 mHz PPC601, 700MB hard drive and 8MB of ram. Totally wicked.
2. PowerMac 7300 from August 1997 through May 2001. 200 mHz upgraded to a 300 mHz G3 later, 2GB hard drive, 32MB ram upgraded to 192 or so. I remember going way frankenstein on that thing, among other things I had some random TV card in there that caused magnetic interference and had my monitor (a refurb Sony 15" Trinitron) showing a skewed image. No skew controls on the monitor. Damn.
3. Pismo PowerBook from January 2001 to present. 400 mHz G3, 8MB Rage Pro GPU, 10GB hard drive, 128MB ram, DVD drive. Best Mac I've had. Period. I would do ANYTHING to upgrade this thing and keep it current a little longer if I could, even after all this time, but I've already maxed out everything (see my sig). Reliable, rugged. Simply an incredible machine, I couldn't say enough good things about it if I had all day. High water-mark for Apple portable engineering. I'm planning to get a new PB when they are updated, but I'll be thinking about my Pismo...

Because, I have a Logitech MX1000 Laser Mouse, which looks like that, but yours is all glossy and mine is solid, and the glossy looks cooler...

I to what like to know what mouse that is.

Are you talking about the iCurve???

My school just got 12 new dual 2.7ghz G5s with 23" displays, 4 GBs of ram each, 400 GBs of HD each, and, as if the 250GB in each wasnt enough, a 4TB SAN and an XServe to tie it all together and distribute tasks when some aren't in use. They call it the Digital Aquarium and it kicks ass.

[steve jr.]

chaos86 You should try and get a pic! :D

I forgot:
And they have every expensive piece of software you could want. CS2 Macromedia 8, Apple's pro video and audio stuff. And of course the full recording studio booth, Powershot g5 cameras, really nice (can't remember) DV cams, tripods, booms, mics, oh and DV video deck and monitor for each computer.

Sadly they had to get some dells for the 3D modelling people who demanded them, but they hid them in the back.

What type of school is this? Art design, industrial design, audio/video pre stuff? Just curious what warrants all that awesome stuff....my school would never go for that, damn engineers :rolleyes:

You'll never believe this but actually it's Georgia State University. Yes, a state school that's not specializing in arts or anything. Cool huh? I think they can afford it because the Digital Aquarium is for the whole school, all 28,000 of us. Luckily, it's tucked away in the back of the top floor of the student center so barely anyone knows about it. :D

btw, I'm there for a BFA in Graphic Design

My father graduated from GSU, and I currently live in Atlanta :D I was just down there for my younger sister's, who now goes to UGA, high school graduation. My father thinks that the school has really gone to the &*$%s since he was there, so I would have never expected them to have such nice gear :p Cool to know that I have some fellow Macrumor-ers in my area :)

Well parts of the school are a little dogdey, but since it is built (or retrofitted into older buildings) on any land the government can pry away from local businesses. For example, Kell Hall is built in what used to be a 60 year old parking structure, so the floor is all lumpy, theres big wide ramps instead of stairs, and the connections to the adjoining GSU buildings are all missaligned because the building is leaning now. Meanwhile, the rec center is one of the best in the country, the film school has better and more up to date technology than any school in the south east, and we have the best housing in the state. To me, yes the schools gone downhill in appearance and, err, structural integrity, but we also have the best of the best in other areas.

Oh and keep an eye on your sister. Athens is definately a drinking,-smoking-and–doing-very–stupid-things town.

With over 750GB of Harddrive space, I don't think that the mini is enough for this person. They need an October 19 Dual Dual Core PowerMac with a couple of GBs of RAM to cut through all of that data in no time flat.

They were $125 plus $20 shipping from Amazon. The sound quality is amazing. I read a whole lot b4 buying, these were defnitely thhe best choice.

I figured I would be setting myself up for a comment like that :rolleyes:, but oh well, I have just cause to know who that is. He costarred (I guess you could say) in The Day After Tomorrow which I actually like, despite being a poor movie, because Emmy is in it ;). It was on for nearly a month straight on HBO this summer when I was at uni (we got upgraded to free HBO, 5 channels, at our apts :D) so I got to know it very well. On top of that, well I'm just a movie freak and have seen the preview for Jarhead a lot lately, which he costars in alongside Jamie Foxx.

As far as Mariah goes, she did get sluttified, sad considering she did sound good but now I just can't listen anymore.

Mac 128K and Lisa 2/10.

Mac 128k bought new in Fairbanks Alaska in late 1984. #10 to be purchased in Fairbanks.
After Bruce Horn (aka "the human 68000 compiler") gave a "program a Mac" presentation at the UofA-Fairbanks, I soon thereafter purchased a Lisa 2/10 as a "developer" and affiliated with the first "software cooperative". In other words, a bunch of us, not distracted by beaches, bikinis and warm weather can get together as a group (Fairbanks Software Co-op.) and write some software for this new machine... That's how we got the Lisa's.
We had LisaPascal, Consulair's C compiler, or Apple's Assembler as the programming tools of choice at that time.

@mariahlullaby, dont let these guys bug ya about Mariah. I used to hate her, but I find your recent album irresistable for some odd reason. She looks hotter than ever after rehab. And Slutty? Please after she married her first producer that got her in the business - thats when slutty began (what we say her first 4 albums was just a persona) - wasnt it La Face?? Better to idolize a woman whom accepts being a women of lust & power & still has a voice than for someone thats a drug user and thinks crack is below her drug standards - Whitney?!! :p

the square thing on top of the tower is an old fm antenna from a stereo--it improves wifi reception (cord goes down and wraps around wifi antenna) the ethernet cables on the floor go to the ps2 and the xbox, but they're currently not connected.

I suppose if all I had was Mac.s it might be better, but currently I have a pc and a PowerBook and the setup is still quite messy, not a surprise considering the pc is still there :rolleyes:

The PowerBook doesn't add that much, imagine that ;)

Definitely worth it, in my opinion. Very convenient to use... The best volume knob ever, you won't understand untill you try it. This is one of those things that you can be without but when u'll get it you won't know how u did without it.

whoa major brian fart

can't you use it as a video frame by frame tool in FCP?

it does multiple things i believe:confused:

edit: from their web site

Edit movies just like the pros with PowerMate functioning as your very own Jog/Shuttle wheel. Spin PowerMate to scroll through footage and push the integrated button to cut out unwanted pieces. Use it in audio production to jump from track to track, adjusting volume levels as you go. PowerMate makes editing anything from home movies to your next demo a breeze. It even comes preset to work with iMovie, FinalCut Pro and GarageBand right out of the box!

We have 28 G5's w/ 20" ACDs in Atlanta. :)

The GA Tech library has a media lab in the library with 5-6 G5s with dual 20" screens on each one, plus a stack of AV equipment.

I'm not a student there, but if you show them a student ID from any university they will let you in as long as its not during finals or anything.

How much do they run? (price wise) and what is the interface connection? Seems like a neat little gizmo, but hard to justify to much $$$ considering its rather limited ability base.

That's what I figured, too. At first it looked like a 30, but then I realized the mini can't drive a 30. In any case, the screen looks massive next to the mini!

If you can swing a Quad PowerMac for Xmas, I would say go for it. I think the general consensus is that Intel chips will hit the consumer lineup before the pro lineup, so the current release of PMs should be quite current for a while, especially that new quad. Oh, I get all excited mentally and physically just thinking about it ;)

I say do it if you can, great computer me thinks. I know I would buy one, or two, if I had the money....but alas :(

Well, I do several things... I am an owner in a manufacturing company and I do alot of training videos for our products.
My first love has always been architectural design so still play with that on the side. I am designing my own home right now, (pictures on the wall). I also do video editing for friends and family just becuase I love to do it. I have just started dabling in some audio recording as well. Just wish I had more time........:)

I have a Dell xps gen intel pentium 4 processor 3.6GHz 800FSB, 2GB DDR2 SDRAM at 533Mhz, 256 Nvidia GEforce 6800, Serial ATA RAID 0 with Dual 250GB hard drives. I had a dell's 19" inch monitor but sold it to get the Apple 23-inch cinema hd display but Once I get the Apple G5 quad, I will need to get other monitor for my Dell, is the dell 24 inch has better resolution than the 19 because i'm planning on buying the 24-inch soon. By the way I like your setup.

No I don't use Avid, I used Adobe Premeire Pro for a number of years but wouldn't even think of going back, I do love Final Cut Pro, Motion, and of course my G5.

Right now I still use the PC for all my Architectural design as my architectural program of choice is windows only and is VERY expensive. So I will just stick with it for...after all it does a god job.

I had dual 19" Samsung Syncmasters before the Dell's and I do have to say the 24" Dell's are a great buy. Built in card reader, USB ports, S-Video, Composite, Component, VGA, DVI inputs. Also has PIP, and PBP. Great picture!

Costs less than the 23" Apple displays. Although, I do like the look of the Apple displays personally.

After I load my images to imageshack, which option should I choose? There are like 7 options and I can never tell which one will actually do what I want it to do.

Once you upload an image to imageshack you should select the "forums thumbnail" option that most closely resembles how these forums would post it manually.

That is, you want one that has the format of:
[url=xxxxxx]xxxxxxxx[ / url] (no spaces in second /url but I had to to cancel the url)

I'll go check that this instant, but I think that is correct.

Edit: Below is the format taken from the "October Desktops" thread showing the posted styling for a thumbnail.

[URL=http://imgxxx.imageshack.us/my.php?image=xxxxx.jpg][IMG]http://imgxxx.imageshack.us/imgxxx/xxxx/xxxxx.jpg[/ IMG][/ URL]

Again, no space between the slash and the img or url, you have to close that but then you should have an attached thumbnail in your post just like this.

Edit2: Or if you have some image editing software you can either click "save for web" or simply lower the size of the image (resolution size which also lowers file size) and then simply attach it for a result like this.

Is the point of the yard/half-yard to slam it all at once or simply to drink that much substance? I have seen them before but I can't recall their purpose.

Thanks for the info, I'll be looking around to see what's offered state-side as well as at Makro's there.

Nice set-up! It's good to see another Live 5 user here. Where'd you get the black production desk/cabinet in the pic? I'm looking for someting similar myself.

Custom made.
Ask any furniture carpenter to make it

Ok, I have wanted to get into music production for aslong as I can remember. I am a mac fanatic and I really want to be able to start making some hip hop beats. What would be some good things to get me started? Programs, keyboards ect..? How do people that were discovered through their music production know how to work all of the professional equipment so well without going to a Full Sail type of school? (like kanye west)
