Its own, a 20-inch Apple Cinema Display, a 7-inch Mimo 720-S USB display and an Apple IIc running a terminal session through a serial cable. For an underpowered notebook, that's quite a feat."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1292604122.usr105634.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>I guess it isn't all that impressive really, since he is just sharing the display among several monitors, but I do like the workspace set up as a conversation piece. However, he hasn't really reached fanboy status though, since I don't see an iPad or iPhone anywhere in the picture, do you?&nbsp;</p>

Anyone who can use those horrible chiclet keyboards is automatically a fanboi. To torture yourself needlessly with those awful things proves your devotion to Apple. :-) (I can't use them at all. I need an old style keyboard with clicky keys, so I have a Matias USB Keyboard)

Seeing that Apple //c bought back some serious moments of nostalgia! That was the first "real" computer I ever owned and I loved it. Eventually I sold it to buy an Amiga, but it was a great computer for its time and served me well!
