Yay! I just got my iMac set up. Yeah... its a dorm room, with very little space, but its much better than programming in a lab or somewhere else. I need to find a place to put an external HD (instead of over behind my bed like right now) so I can use time machine.

Bought a new TV, so the Mac Mini finally found it's place:

(clickable picture)

The TV is a Sony Bravia KDL-32S300, and with a DVI-HDMI cable the resolution automatically set itself perfectly

I had to buy the new alu bluetooth keyboard too, it works like a dream.

After the picture was taken, I've added an Iomega MiniMax 320GB harddrive that sit's under the Mini.

Oh, and all the junk on my desk.

I have my setup complete (sort of)...

- Mac mini 1.83 Core2Duo
- Envision 19" widescreen
- 120gb Segate USB external drive
- Belkin USB hub
- Logitech Marble Mouse and Classic keyboard
- Creative 2.1 speakers (soon to be replaced)
- LITEON external CD burner (soon to be replaced)

I forgot to include my Nokia n800 and my loyal Pentax K110d. If this setup looks clean is because i just set it up, soon it will have books and papers all over again.

Very clean setup mraya!
I am always trying to keep my desk clean. A few days pass and mail and random USB cords start showing up.
What's the square thing with the green light? Is that the remote for the speakers?

hahah exactly. One minute I have my iPhone sitting here, then my mom and brother bring their iPods in with cords and set them down because they want my movies. And random earphones start unwinding themselves and fall off the desk. Ugh.
