Dilbert: Grandpa Box
See Dilbert comic strip for 08/03/2011. Found via Andy.Especially valid in my household today since my sweetie just got herself an iPad 2 despite rocking my previous MacBook Pro. I wouldn’t quite qualify it as a work machine for her, but being a flight attendant, she’ll likely end up doing most of her work-related online tasks on it, plus have a lighter/smaller device to carry around in her luggage while on the go.
I, for one, have no desire for a tablet at the moment. I’m in heaven with my MacBook Air. Only thing that would make it better is built-in 3G. Then again, given how carriers go, it’d likely mean having to pay for two data accounts. I’m perfectly fine with using Personal HotSpot for that, through my iPhone instead. 🙂

Projector Setup
Setting up a used projector as a third monitor is a success! Shown here running XBMC on OS X. Look how tiny the 27″ and 23″ monitors look. 🙂
The projector is connected via VGA and the 23″ monitor via USB2-DVI adapter. The latency on the latter isn’t fantastic, so it wasn’t appropriate for the projector since I mainly use it for movies, video conferencing, music visualization, gaming and other graphics intensive applications. It’s entirely fine for the 23″ at 1920×1080 for what I use it for: email, IM, IRC and Skype (text).
All in all, I’m very happy with the setup. Now, all I need is to build a hushbox to quiet down the fans an mount it to the ceiling.
