Rig of the Day: Mac on a wall



We just can't get enough of those wall mounted LCDs. Check out mkwhitley's Mac on a wall. The Dell 2005FPW 20" LCD on the wall is connected to a Mac mini hidden beneath his desk, with the cables popping out at the baseboard. We love it.

PS-Where did you get that cool lamp?

That lamp has been around for a few years - it's commonly known as a "Medusa" lamp. If you Google it you'll find different variations on it, most of which are 3- or 5-headed desk or floor lamps. The 4-headed one above seems rare, but if you like the colors and the design it's easy to find one that approximates it . . .

Hmmmm. I never once thought that anybody would think of using Photoshop for Rig of the Day. Thanks for giving me the advice #6!

"This is my 200 foot projection screen hooked up to 7 G5 Quads, running bootcamp. Don't ask me how I did it."

And if people accuse me of photoshopping it, I'll just say I resised it.

Yotta: Matt he didnt , he just Photoshoped the image . hehehe .

Before hangning my 2 , 3 1/2" hd's enclosure and my macmini behind my Nec 19" lcd , my Monitor was facing down , over my pillow on my bed , i have a 16"x48" shelf and i hang my monitor under it to try how it would look, its weird reading tuaw laying down in bed , head facing up.

For some reason, it looks weird when a dell is paired with an Apple. Like wearing reeboks with Nike Shorts. Call me a Brand Whore . . . but ya . . call me a brand whore!

Hey, that's my computer! :) The lamp was purchased at a Department store in Connecticut... I can't remember which one!
