do you mean directly? you can use software on your mac to receive airplay, I use AIRSERVER, there are others that allow you to do the same thing...Just had a thought:
Imagine the iPad Air 4TH Gen, iPad Pro 2018/2020 being able to wirelessly present to those 2 LCD's wirelessly over ad-hoc Wi-Fi without the need for an Apple TV?If only.
or use any post 2018 samgung or lg tvs that include airplay!!!
What setup do you recommend for a Windows laptop and an iMac?

I finally bought my first iMac. I have been wanting one for a long time. I use it for personal use. I also have an HP Pavilion Laptop for school. I am currently studying for my degree in Business Technology which requires a Windows computer.
I don’t have very much space on my desk.
Do you have any setup suggestions for me?

setup is immaculate!
Very tasteful ... love that chair what is it? (looking to buy a new one).
Soundsticks II / III still going strong?!
Picture on the wall ... is that the girl featured on National Geographic front page with those sharp crystal ocean-blue eyes over a decade ago? https://www.nationalgeographic.com/.../sharbat-gula-house/05-sharbat-gula-house.jpg
Thanks. I don't know the brand of the chair
I bought it 6/7 years ago and there's no brands on it, I need to change it and I can't find the name too!Soundstick still rocks

First day with the new M1 Mac mini! Absolutely blown away by it so far. Need to get a new 4k monitor (the one pictured is a 1080p Dell monitor), and then a couple of external SSD's, and then I'll be set. Currently using the iPad as a graphics tablet with Sidecar and it's going really well so far
Got a little laptop table for the Air, nice and easy to move in front of the window or like this.

Finally got moved in to my new place this weekend and now have the space for a proper office setup (the kind I've wanted for a while). Got my gaming laptop on the left, my iMac in the center and then my work machine on the right. The glass top desk will become my defacto printer stand whenever I get around to getting that set up.

And the screen setup is finally done. I had my office PC and a kiosk 2015 iMac as my machines a 1080 monitor
Anyway, now I replaced the iMac with an M1 Mac mini and demoted the 1080 monitor for a 4K and here's what I'm left with.

Question! What are those speakers?
Thank youBeautiful Monitor and very minimalistic desk. Like it!
Question! What are those speakers?
The speakers are JBL Creature Speakers III. I've tried to find a link for you but unfortunately it doesn't look like they make them any more. Probably more of an eBay job nowadays!

Just noticed, where is your keyboard!?
I've a keyboard tray that pulls out from under the deskJust noticed, where is your keyboard!?
It's a cheap one I fitted myself and it's rather wonky, but it'll do.
I always loved these designs of LG monitors. Still overly expensive at $750+CAN for HDR10 and USB-C monitors are very slim pickings.
BenQ SW271. That’s what’s on my desk.I always loved these designs of LG monitors. Still overly expensive at $750+CAN for HDR10 and USB-C monitors are very slim pickings.
Not sure what your point was other than to show a much more expensive monitor??
Just that there are other choices of USB C and HDR10 monitors. I didn’t really think about the price aspect if I’m honest. I’m sure there are others out there. But I’d put quality higher than price.
Where’s that screen wallpaper from please?View attachment 1676317
