Things I want for my mac

Wish List...

In the next few days, I'll be getting a Mac Mini Core Duo, with 2GB of RAM and a 120GB HDD. I've just ordered a Dell 2405FWP monitor that should be pretty nice. I've ordered a wired keyboard and Mighty Mouse to go with the Mini. I haven't tried the MM yet, so I'm looking forward to getting it. I got a BT keyboard and mouse for my old iMac, but I think I'll prefer the wired MM if I can find a remote that works well with the stuff I care about. The IR Apple remote might be nice, but I need a BT or a RF one. The Keyspan RF Remote for Front Row seems pretty good. Their Presentation Remote and TuneView Remote look pretty cool too. I wouldn't mind having the three of them, actually. I think they'd be fun toys to play with.

Anyways, when my wallet recovers, I'd like to get a 750GB NewerTech miniStack (or whatever's the biggest HDD capacity they offer at that time). It's such a big HDD in such a tiny package!!! And you can pile a few if you want even more storage. Oh! The joy of having a cute little tower measuring only 6.5"x6.5"x8" but having 120GB+4x750GB of storage!!! WOW!!! WwwwwwwwwoW!!! :p

Eventually, I'd like to get a decent TV tuner as well, but it is not a priority at the moment as I don't yet have the aforementioned cute little tower and its associated storage capacities. :p
 
I just discovered the ATI Remote Wonder II. I think it would be a good all-in-one solution. It seems to be a pretty powerful remote and it is supported by MediaCentral (a FrontRow-type of application): http://www.remotecentral.com/wonder2/features.htm .

Miglia also announced the "TVMax" tuner for the Mini. It features DivX hardware compression, which is rather nice, and has a form factor that matches the Mini's, which is a big esthetic plus. I don't really know much about the different TV standards, but the tuner's technical specifications mention only "standard definition" so I'm not sure if the image quality is worth the price: http://www.miglia.com/products/video/tvmax/techspecs.html .
 
Let's see:

1. iLap
2. Logic Express
3. Midi Keyboard
4. 23" Moniter to plug my Macbook into
5. Lacie Porsche 250 gig HD
6. A Pelican case for work in the field
7. 2 gigs of Ram
8. Quickverse Whitebox edition
9. A Bluetooth Wacom Tablet
10. Painter Essentials 3
11. a new desk
12. A new chair
 
Hmm...I've actually gotten a lot of stuff that I had wanted this year so all that's left is really this:

Short Term
1. Sony HandyCam DCR-DVD305
2. DVDs for the HandyCam
3. Some kind of MemoryStick Pro card for the HandyCam
4. Universal Dock

Long Term
1. iMac Intel 17"
2. Apple Cinema Display 20"

I am also getting an iPod 5G 30GB (or it's updated equivalent) for my birthday this July.
 
Things I have for my MacBook:
Canon S330 Photo
Sennheiser HDR110
Mighty Mouse

Things I want for my MacBook:
Canon Pixma MP150 (80 bucks)
Bluetooth Mighty Mouse (Approx. 60 bucks when it is announced)
A sleeve for 13.3" MacBook (Approx. 30 bucks when it is announced)

Most stuff I want is most probably very soon announced, and until I really need that new printer, I'm not gonna buy one.
 
BT keyboard.
external 160gb HD
More RAM
creatures, sounds sticks, or creative itrigue speakers.
USB HUB.


oh and a Bt mighty mouse would be sick.
 
I'm gunning for an ACD right now, I either want a 30 or two 20's. Or the dell widescreens, I don't care about the brand that much. Other than that I would like to have an iCurve for my MacBook, because it will soon be my desktop on EyeTV duty when the 64 bit MBP's come out.
 
Yeah, I'd like to get an eyeTV too sometime in the future, but I guess I'll take it one step at a time.
