Re: Post Pics of Your Set-Up
i love the cardboard box server.
MBP15, CD 2.0, 1GB, 128 VRAM.
I just had to do the Apple-style "barely open" shot 
And for good measure:
Mac SE SuperDrive, 8 MHz?, 4MB RAM, 40MB HDD. It's currently dead though, I think the CRT finally gave up the ghost. Kind of a bummer, I'd look into fixing it but I wouldn't know where to start and I don't really want to shock myself dead, haha.

Re: Post Pics of Your Set-Up
Yeah, pastor's set-up makes me just drool. I feel unworthy to post my MBP on this site along side some other set-ups. Might be cause I dont have a desk to speak of either...they seem to like sitting on the floor here in Japan.
Hopefully ok in the same post, but here is a question: What kind of job do you have that requires that much firepower? I am wondering what everyone does for a job/hobby (that is, if you dont mind me asking). Just fishing around for a hobby of my own with my new toy.
Thanks.

Which variety did you purchase? That's quite the price... all the foam I've picked up in the past has cost an arm and a firstborn child.
