The Search for the Right Mac Setup in the Office
I'll be moving into a new office this summer, and it already has me thinking about the new desk and how I want to setup my MacBook on the desk. Using a laptop as your main desktop as well complicates matters.
Things I know:
- The MacBook will be the computer
- I'll place an external display as well (19" probably)
- I want an external keyboard and mouse involved in ergonomic locations
- My phone cradle is a must
- I want to minimize plugins, so I'll have a USB hub cable, an ethernet cable, a power cable all in place.
I find it helpful to look at Mac desk setups for ideas. A printer-cartridge company pointed me to their recent photo gallery of Mac setups: 25 of the Best Home & Office Mac Setups.
A great way to get ideas is to scan some of the many Flickr photo pools.

I've used a 19th inch external with my Macbook for a year now, and have been very happy with it.

Thanks for the links- I'm need to move our office soon, and I've been using that as an excuse to alter the setup. It's hard because it really is a multi-purpose situation: study, music recording/mixing, and design. Too much stuff to fit in.
<> Can someone please help. I'm in the search for the perfect mac setup for me. I recently got the quad core (i5) imac and need to make my room/office a little for organized and professional. I have an extra mono]iter lying around, but I have absolutely no ideas. My budget is under $100 cad. Thanks. Please email all ideas to justinmathew34@hotmail.com thanks
Justin
