That dual MBP15" is overkill.
Anyway, here's my latest workspace. I'm back to dual screen setup after buying Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter. Workspace is missing an iPhone 3G[S] booked 20 days ago from Maxis! And that's my living room by the way. ![]() This post has been edited by Snecx: Sep 14 2009, 08:30 AM |

@gengstapo: Can handle a 6 speed manual or not?
@llsphinxll: I'm not using bluelounge's cable box ler. Almost all my furniture also from IKEA one. There's a wire organizer below the desk, near the back. Just not very visible only. I got 6 cables plugged into my MBP all the time. Keyboard and mouse both also wired coz really tired of replacing batteries. @devabby: I bought it at RM1.8k last year in April. Price should be cheaper now. A lot of LCD monitors nowadays can also rotate to portrait mode. And yea that's my Fairlady in the background. |

llsphinxll, long story how I got until this setup.
If you see my previous photos, I already use iMac via Screen Sharing. I have multiple OS installed in iMac via Parallels Desktop for web development. That's how I load up IE6, IE8, Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Safari at the same time as well as simulating my web server configuration. When I added one external display to my MBP, I used the internal MBP display to connect to the iMac via Screen Sharing. However the nature of Screen Sharing is that it is not real time and the lag kinda gets on my nerve after prolonged hours of testing. I am unable to put the iMac on the same table as my MBP+external display due to size limitation so I tried putting the iMac table close to my main table. It was a little far but it worked because I got 2 sets of keyboard and mouse. I was controlling the iMac wirelessly via the Logitech VX Revolution mouse and wireless keyboard and switch between the set during testing. The mouse you see in the previous photo is the VX Revolution. Then I tried putting the extra display I have on my main table, driven by the iMac. It filled the gap nicely, monitors are side by side. Later I even got rid of the keyboard and mouse of iMac by using Teleport ( http://lifehacker.com/294909/control-multi...e-with-teleport ) and now it functions like a single entity multi-displays. My mouse pointer can just move over to the iMac displays seamlessly! One keyboard and mouse for 4 different displays! This is the surreal part for me. Suppose I can turn off iMac's internal display coz I rarely use it and 3 is more than enough. But there isn't an option to use just the external display and not the internal one. Left to right: iMac 24" - Research pages, code references, random stuff needed for work Acer H233H 23" - Multiple browsers for development tests HP w2408h 24" - Portrait mode, main display for coding, showing up to 160 lines of codes at once MBP 17" - IM, emails, iTunes, personal browsing (Facebook, Twitter, Lowyat, etc.) I must say having extra monitor makes things much more productive. There isn't a need to switch windows around. |
