    Willam G's shelf is cool, but looking at the web page link, I doubt it would work with my 2 TB raid desktop external hard drive.

    @ Hawkeye

    What is that homer app on you dock? I have the homer dashboard widget, but what is that you have there?

    Lethal Lottery, why wouldn't it work with your external hard drive?

    It should work with your monster 2TB RAID drive (we have one of those at the office for backups). Take a look at this picture:

    Hey all. Happy holidays to you! Just thought you might be interested in this. I'm getting myself my first desktop Mac! Yep, an iMac i7 27" has been ordered, and I'm saying bye-bye to my 17" MacBook Pro. I'll be upgrading it to 8GB DDR3 immediately for the time being, and taking it apart to replace the spinning disk immediately with my OCZ Vertex SSD.

    I will also be keeping my 24" LED display and connecting it to the iMac as a secondary display. I think this should keep my resolution hunger at bay for a while. I'll be sure to take pics/do a full review when I get it, though it says 2 weeks till delivery for now! Boo!

    Anyway, where are all your new system pictures you got for Christmas, eh? :) :)

    I had all intents and purposes of taking a pic of my relocated set up today, but the wife had me running around the mall with her. Maybe tomorrow...

    Okay so I snapped one today. Nothing too spectacular. Moved my desk downstairs to my man-cave. Got my 20" iMac, Dell Latitude E4300 connected to a Dell S2409W monitor (great monitor, btw), and 17" MBP. Pardon the wires - I have not been in the zip-tying mood of late
