Post your Mac setup inside your home or office!

I'm still deciding what kind of table, furniture to setup my Mac in the future.

Still owning a Macbook Pro on my lap or anywhere.

Quite recently did a overhaul to my setup and same as everyone, there's bunch of headache that comes with it...

Initially wanted to get a full real customised workstation setup, the cost is really high after factor in all the required accessory. Not a good choice.
Then was browsing Ikea site and found some ideas... currently as the picture show, the table was my existing table that I'm using.. is already 10 years.. still very strong.
So my plan was to raise the iMac and also raise my new speakers. The reason is that most of the wires that runs from them will be end up to a power point or to a external drive or to a router. This units can be placed inside the rack.
So I found two racks from Ikea which was really suitable... you need to self-assembled. The dimension was really fit for a iMac and additional speakers. I like the height of the side rack as it is exactly at my ear level.
Also I placed a few power extension bar behind and all the wires flows smoothly down to it.
So with the extra space on the rack, there's a lot of additional items you can use to place inside. e.g.. external drive, NAS, usb hub, router.. and so no. Simple but function use.

Here's the details below:
Center tray: http://www.ikea.com/sg/en/catalog/products/30292101/

Side speaker rack : Billy Series http://www.ikea.com/sg/en/catalog/products/80323360/

Hope it helps...

Doesn't your mac is.. well.. a bit too high? I hope not. Would be bad for your eye and neck strain.

Nice desk.

No, I'm quite tall, just nice..
Imac also can till down so no issue. The picture is facing upwards.
With this setup, there's 8 shelving that can be utilised. It is airy as well.
If you're using 21", just use one center tray will do.
