New 27" LED Cinema Display, connected to the 15" MBP, using both displays as one big desktop. It is absolutely gorgeous: 2560x1440 razor-sharp, rock solid pixels.

It's a replacement for a 12 year old Samsung SyncMaster 240T which was getting too dim to see. The difference is wonderful!

I have the 24" model -- it's incredibly sharp and joy to use. I am, however, a tad jealous of your extra real estate.

I have a friend that has like 10 monitors in his office at home. All big ones like that. Very envious of him. But I tend to like saving up money sometimes.

My favorite thing about that image is all of your kids' art on your wall.

Which I'm surprised hasn't been scanned in and used as the screen saver.

Eliminate fossil fuel subsidies. (If you're not on the edge, you're taking up too much room.)

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
