College Students: Post your Mac Setup!

It's plausible, but unlikely. I made 6k this summer working full time. So if he was working part time during highschool and full time in the summers he might be able to pay for all that if he didn't spend on anything else.
 
Here's my updated system with the Dell 2005FPW. 😎

What story in that building are you on? I'd be so afraid to have my setup right there next to the window if it were on the first floor. I think you have a lock on it so that's good... but still. 🙂

PS. Where are you located? What times are you not in your room? 😉

Nice setup. How do you keep your desk so clean? Or was that just for the picture 😛 .

I'd like to get an iCurve and bluetooth keyboard and mouse for my 15", but no $$ now. Nice speakers.

I second the coment on security.
 
i'm on the second floor.... and my windows are always locked, i need to be near window to do work or else looking at a wall will drive me crazy, plus i like having "natural light"

I have no idea, i just put away stuff when i'm done you should see my draws 😱 But i'm normally i neat person, when my parents saw my room they were shocked to how clean it was compared to my brothers room at school they just saw a week ago. If i have time later i'll take pictures of my room, its too neat esp. for a guys room 😛

Amen to that, my neatness once caused my father to want to puke, he is a strange character. He is OCD about things, like when walking through a DVD store he'll straighten DVDs out, which I find super annoying, but in his office he has piles of paper and files everywhere.(Normal PC User 😛 ) Its very strange. But I keep my stuff very clean, and I guess you could call me a neat freak, so nice to know I'm not the only one.
 
heres mine........i was contemplating bringing my monitor but deicded against it since itd take up too much room.....id mount it on the wall behind, but its concrete blocks, so i dont know if i could

nice and simple setup, I like your background. its hard to tell but is it photo or painting? Do u have a link?
 
Here is my setup, its in an apt off campus, but im still a college student. . . still. . . 5th year sr. . . but the first pic is where i do my work, and the 2nd pic is where my PB usually resides on the weekends, sending music to my stereo through my airport express! (i built the bar myself last year, it gets the job done O🙂 ) the mini in the picture is my brothers, i was just playing with it while he was at summer camp (its an old picture) and i have new speakers since the pic.

Yah, I bought one 5ish years ago, shorter after they were released. I never used it though, so I sold it.
 
Heres mine, recently got a USB switch, so one keyboard and one mouse are now gone 🙂 The picture was taken at my parents house over the summer, but I've got the all my hardware set up the same way here.

I'm jealous, everytime I go to CompUSA I have to talk myself down from charging a secondary display for my 15" PB.

Basically I've got a lot of peripheral stuff: 250G HD, 80G HD, Gyro mouse, Wacom Tablet, MIDI adapter, iMic, and an adapter for my digital voice recorder. I print via bluetooth barring any ridiculously large PDF's, which usually call for running a usb cable.

My dorm in Japan was ridiculous, but I still managed to get by. I think I had the highest electric bill of my whole floor😛

Yep, Roll Tide Roll! 7-0!
I had a buddy from around there. In fact, when I was thinking about going into architecture, I mulled over going to Auburn, but my family would've disowned me 😀

I really hope we eventually get an Apple store in AL, the closest ones are in TN and GA.

Here is my setup in my dorm room. As you can see the computer is on some waffle blocks to the right of my desk. The cables find their way to my desk by going behind the fridge haha. See the pictures below and follow along 😉
