Preparation is complete...
 picked up an extra monitor and 2x2TB hard drives. still hasn't shipped out yet, though. I'm hoping that means Snow Leopard will come pre-installed. In any case, it should be here next week.

If the mac comes with a board with a numPad, I may use it... if only to have a proper delete key. But being wireless is also nice...

Yeah, the dual monitors really do dwarf that keyboard, but so do the iMac's. I'd pay a little extra to upgrade it to the 10 key and use a Logitech instead of a Mighty Mouse. What's that on the floor under the desk, recording equipment?

Pedal board for guitar FX.
Speaking of which, your speakers aren't staying there, are they Hips? |

Yeah. That speaker on the right is part of my 5.1 surround sound for my TV. I've always just used headphones with my computers.

Looks good. I think you need a bigger desk.
Which Mac Pro are you getting? Any plans to pack it with RAM.

2x2.26GHz xeons
6GB RAM geforce gt120 640 GB hdd the standard configuration for the dual-quad model. Then I'm gonna throw those two 2TB drives in for my iTunes library and a backup. Eventually I will probably upgrade the RAM and videocard, but I think I'll be content for a while.
