The new desk setup

I just bought a base model 13” MacBook Air replace my 20” iMac (Early 2008) and 13” MacBook Pro (Mid 2009). I wanted to get away from having to worry about keeping things in sync between multiple machines and simplify things a bit. To keep the new single machine setup similar to my old one I bought a Rain Design mStand and a Thunderbolt Display.

I’m hooked up to my gigabit LAN via the display so I can quickly read and write to my file server, and I’m using a Logitech Performance MX Mouse and Apple Wireless Keyboard as input devices. In case you’re wondering, yes, that is an Ikea lamp in the background, and everything is sitting on an Ikea desk. I’m loving my new setup.
