My New Toy [pic]
 

After a few months of wanting to throw my PC out the window due to hardware conflicts, random reboots and all out gayness, plus the fact that I needed a good editing machine for some new sites on the horizon, I went and got myself my first Mac. A 24" iMac to be more precise.


The screen on this thing is simply beautiful and it makes my trusty 19" pc monitor look tiny. And I can't believe how much more workspace I have working with Photoshop and Final Cut (was using Premiere Pro before). Plus a new Wacom pen tablet speeds things up nicely too.

Anyway...just wanted to share my enthusiasm with all you gays. Time to get back to cutting trailers...

Damn son!!

That fuckin screen is huge!!! :thumbsup

Pimp screen :pimp

Congrats!

I loved my iMac, but I ended up selling it so I could 'go mobile.' If you get 'Screen Spanner', which I believe has been updated for the intel boxes, you can attach the mini-dvi to VGA/DVI adaptor and run it dual-headed. I miss having 2800x900 res. :thumbsup

congratz on getting one! :thumbsup

Damn...that sounds tight... but in the meantime 1920x1200 is pretty tight with me :upsidedow

Everybody's trying to drag me over to the Mac army. I'm resisting...

I wouldnt give my mac's up for anything

Congrats :pimp :pimp

you are truly blessed.

No reason to fight it...come to the dark side. You'll love it, I promise you. But don't get me wrong, for day to day shit like email, internet browsing and other mico tasks that I don't know if the Mac has software for, I will still use my PC...maybe until the end of time. There's no reason to go all or nothing anymore...you can just do both. Plus if you dont have the desk space, you can load XP on to the new Intel Macs and do a dual boot. But I'd rather not mess with perfection, so I'll stick with two seperate machines for now. :2 cents:

Yes, when I make more money, I will too switch over to mac... I have had more problems with my pc than fucking imagineable. Nice setup btw.

That screen is pretty pimp.

I want one now... :pimp

very cool setup :)

Looks like a pretty sweet setup

Why thank ya :winkwink:

Yea...Im sure I know exactly what you mean. I think in the last year, I have reformatted my PC about 5 times. And this last time...God forbid I go to a Crackz site using IE, when BOOM...my PC is flooded with Spy and Adware. I tried getting rid of it with Panda, AdAware and ScanSpyware...but there was always something left. I reformatted last thursday and bought the Mac on Friday.

...horrible.

Thank you all for the compliments too, btw :pimp

A mac mini goes for under $600.
No its not top of the line but faster than my G4 I'm using right now.
Its an entry level machine.

They'll have to pry it from my cold dead hands!!:thumbsup :thumbsup

Yeah, thats sweet.
Just bought a 23" Cinema Display and absolutely love it.
:thumbsup :thumbsup

Ahhh...that looks great! And not cheap!!!
Have fun with it!

awesome, very sexy set up

Ill stick with my pcs. :winkwink: I cant think of anything I could do on a mac I cant do on a pc, but I can think of plenty I can do on a pc, and not on a mac. :upsidedow No matter what the trendy little mac commercials have to say. :1orglaugh

way to go! congratz :thumbsup

MAC yuck. so you had reboots and hardware conflicts mmm did you put together your clone yourself?

now you have a very expensive machine to do just 2 things

looks nice but it doesnt compare to my 32 inch monitor :)

:thumbsup !!

I bought my Mac to only do two things. And it does them better and faster than my PC.

And that's really h@Rdc0r3 that you do computer work on a 32". I guess I'm only 72% as cool as you. And I'm sure all that extra space is needed to design extra shitty looking websites like the one in your sig. Why don't you go try to sell some more Panamanian real estate on an adult webmaster board. Good luck with that, faggot.

I love the gays. :rainfro :rainfro

Wow! I want that aswell!

I have a hard time thinking that the black monitor is actually a 19 incher.

Congrats on the purchase!

Apple! is rock!!

That rocks, man! Congrats! :thumbsup

You have the same office max desk as they have Datinggold

Why is there 75mm of plastic under the screen? Just jacks it up in the air for no reason and makes the monitor look like it has down syndrome.

No way I could work with my 24 if it had the crap under it, but if you're happy with it then kudos to you.

Haha...no shit. Yup...got it at Office Max about 2 years ago.:thumbsup

looks great :thumbsup

PCs and productivity for some, fancy Macintoshs for others.

Congratz! you're so lucky with that.

hehehehehehe

Sweet looking screen man

beautiful :)

Your sreen i so-o-o big!

quite a nice looking screen you got there mate... a big one!

That looks sexy, pal. :thumbsup

I still don't understand how people think all the problems they have will be fixed by getting a mac... Yeah, if you're a retard and you don't know shit about computers in general and you get viruses and spyware constantly becuase you don't know what the fuck you're doing, then yes, get a mac and that will solve your problems... for twice the cost of a comparable PC. :1orglaugh Sheep. If you really want to avoid things like that switch to Linux, and get better performance with open source software. :thumbsup

nice PC and mac

Congrats, looks great.

that screen is huge!

keep pimpin

heh, their sizes look funny when they stand next to each other :)

50 new toys........
