Haha, thanks guys.
I'm no rocket scientist, but I'm good at what I do, and I have the papers for it...,there's a post in the "what do you do for a living" thread, with a movie.

I'm saying this, because there's not too much people for these jobs (crazy!!), hehe
So it's easy for me to get a job.

But about the iMac....my intention was not to pay for it, I wanna make a trade, but so far nobody wants it.
Think about it, on the Dutch secondhandmac site, there's no mac for sale in a 35 mile radius.
Mac is not as popular here as it is in the US of A.

Daddy Elmis will become famous soon enough
With the external screen option, you'll want/need an external keyboard and mouse as well, otherwise you'll have the MBP open with the larger screen behind it. Kind of awkward, I think. I wish Apple had a docking station for their laptops for this sort of thing.

True, but I have the keyboard and mouse.

And I've just ordered myself a 26" screen, so we'll see.
It has to be approved as yet so I'll probably won't hear anything till monday morning, but it'll be alright, and I'll be happy when it gets here

Actually Zorro, it was you who deterred me from the whole idea to trade for an iMac.
Great idea... this way I have the DT and the LT setup.

Nice one BTW.

@ tattooed, actually I was out of work for five, so I think we can muster it.
I try to have a little something set aside for a rainy day, but in rainy day, I mean being without work for several months.

I hope you'll be alright though, it's a tough world out there....

Update: After reevaluating my order, I cancelled it and ordered a 24" display.
Seems a 26" is a little to big for my taste.

It's been approved at will be arriving this Tuesday.
