Post Pictures of Your Computer Setup
I don't know if a thread like this already exists somewhere, but I did a search and didn't find one. Even if there is one somewhere, it hasn't been updated in quite a while.
The basic idea is to share a picture (or pictures) of your computer setup. You can also write a little something to describe the pictures if you wish.
So, let's see 'em! This is a great chance to show off your shiny new G5 or PowerBook!
Mine: You can look at my setup just to see an example of what I'm getting at here in case my communication skills are really that terrible if you want. Of course, you can just look for the heck of it, too.

^^^56k Warning^^^
I put them on my site because (1) there are eight of them and (2) because they're too big to fit on this forum without screwing up the layout and Demonhood doesn't like that and (3) because I was too damn lazy to resize them so that they would fit on the forum as per number 2.

I was hoping that they would have been in the price range I had available to spend in my other thread. Oh well.

Luckily you! Apple shipped a Philips made combo drive in my dual 1.25 Ghz FW800 machine.. that drive blows.. it refused to read some music and data CDs.
Here are some more pictures of all the old Macs and PCs I have lying around. I got them all for free because my Dad is a teacher and the school was getting rid of them all, so I brought them home.
My old Apple IIe. Still works, but I only have two programs for it.
Apple's first portable computer, the IIc. It has a little handle out the back.
An overall view of a shelf in my basement with a bunch of old computer stuff. The empty case is for a 486.
A box in my basement with a bunch of old software and wires in it.
Some people have piles of decorations in their basements; I have piles of old computers.

I'll post a pic once/if I get my room cleaned up before i"m off to college again... right now it's just my iMac and iBook and a whole lota CDs, a bag of caramel cups, a bottle of ketchup for some reason, and a TV remote... yeah... my desk tends to be a table, place to work on my computers, and a whole lota other stuff... kinda frustrating but my family never leaves the kitchen table clean so you gotta eat somewhere...
Everybody else uses their (free bandwidth included) .Mac account to post their pictures, and what do I do?
Go through a gig of (rather expensive) bandwidth on my web server just for this thread.
Of course, it doesn't help that I insist on posting them in lossless PNG, either.... Oh well...

It's a computer I made myself. Not sure *WHY* you thought it was a Packard Hell, but I'd never let myself near one; let alone touch one with a 10ft bambo stick while wearing electricians gloves.
Blast from the Past! The dual dual setup:
So this picture is about 3 years old.. crummy berkeley apt. as well.
this was when 10.1 *just* came out, so my friend came up from LA to go to that macworld. He brought his machine and set it up on a spare desk I had.
On the left is a dual 500mhz powermac G4, and a dell P3-500mhz laptop.
On the right is my dual 450mhz powermac G4, with those nifty harmon kardon soundsticks. They had good midrange, but low end kinda sucked. Not worth the $200 I paid for it..
Sorry I don't have any newer pics, no digicam.
