My Computer Setup

September 24, 2008

I use a MacBook Pro. The laptop is placed to the right of the Cinema Display and I keep the Dock on the right. This makes more sense with a widescreen display, since the screen is wider than it is tall. The MBP used to be on the left. I also tried going clamshell mode for about a week, but it didn’t work out. Clamshell mode is when you close the lid on the MBP and work solely off the external display.

I didn’t bother to clear the desk before taking this picture, because I wanted to show how it looks while I’m working.

Here is a list of some of the peripherals and accessories.

• 20″ Apple Cinema Display
• Griffin Elevator laptop stand
• Logitech MX Revolution
• SanDisk ImageMate® 12-in-1 Reader/Writer
• IKEA® FÄRJA work lamp (now only operating in bright mode)
• JBL Spot(tm) speakers
