Post your 27" iMac setup (late 2012)

///M5 · Dec 20, 2012, 08:39 AM

As the title says.

I'll start with mine.

Friend Trend · Dec 20, 2012, 10:23 AM

Got my 2012 27" delivered last night (to replace my 2009 27"). 3.4GHz i7 w 3TB Fusion Drive and NVIDIA 680MX. Pimped it out with 32GB of 3rd party RAM. Man, is Safari ever snappy on this thing! :-)

Setup includes a second monitor (27" Apple Display with mini-display port -- purchased before the Thunderbolt models came out). Monitor is sitting on a (dead) first-generation Apple TV to bring it up to a height to match the iMac.

Very nice wallpaper you have there.

mrmarts · Jan 4, 2013, 08:23 AM

For those lucky people who got a new imac between the 2010 iMac and the 2012 model is there much difference to display is it better contrast, brighter etc

forty2j · Jan 4, 2013, 08:26 AM

I am SOOO tempted to take a pic of the blank spot on my desk and post it here.

metaljay · Jan 4, 2013, 08:34 AM

Meh, you're showing a Windows desktop on a Mac.

Arman · Jan 10, 2013, 08:56 PM

Yeah, I figured I'd eventual get some flack for that but rest assured that is actually Parallels running in full screen mode. I use a family photo for my wallpaper on my Mac and I was too lazy to switch it out for the pic.

What desk is that? Does it fully wrap around you like a u-shape desk would?

Nope. It actually ends with a rounded corner just past where the picture is cut off.

The desk is actually just a tabletop from IKEA:

(I don't think the red-brown colour I have is available any more though)

wayne905 · Jan 4, 2013, 01:20 PM

Here's my setup.

ctdonath · Jan 4, 2013, 01:47 PM

Those desks are way too clean. Methinks y'all are just wandering into furniture stores and taking pictures of props.
