Sean Caine

Earlier in the week we asked readers to post pics of their workspaces on our Facebook page for the chance to win a new Magic Mouse — and the response was great. So far, more than 90 of you have taken the time to become fans of Cult of Mac on Facebook, snap a shot and upload your pictures — thank you!

While everyone is waiting with bated breath to find out who’ll win the Magic Mouse (announcement to come tomorrow, Sunday, November 1), we thought readers might like to see a cool dozen of some of the most interesting.

Let us know what you think in comments below and feel free to continue posting your own shots over at the Facebook fan page.

It seems many of the workspaces submitted broke in two ways: people with multi-screen arrays and those with more simple set-ups.

We like Sean Caine’s Miami office set up. With 2 Mac Mini’s, a VAIO and a HDTV on a crystal table on top of a white marble floor, it’s something John Lennon might have approved of.

Christian Henning has a tidy editing suite running a G5 PowerMac and a 15’ MacBook Pro with a trio of desktop displays.

We’re not sure what line of work Nils Bertrand is in, but he needs a MacPro, MacBook, iPhone, Dell Precision, and six screens to get it done on.

Chris Clark calls this ‘the Cave,’ It’s outfitted with a Mac Pro 3GHz dual running 2 screens on left; MBP 2.33GHz on the right (he uses for XP in Parallels and social media apps). “Toss in a Shuffle here, an iPhone 3G there,” he says, “Good to go 14 hours/day!”

Here’s a set-up that packs a lot of gear into a small space. Barry Wood has a black MacBook, 8-core MacPro w/2 23’ Cinema displays, and a G4 Cube on the 17’ screen, with verything controlled from the Intuos and keyboard using Teleport. He’s also got what looks to be a pair of nice near-field audio monitors and an exercise ball for an office chair. Sweet!

  • Edgar

    i imagine my workspace of the future. uuu, damn i wanna grow 10 years know!.

  • Alex

    I always think its funny when people show off their three monitors, this is what have deal with at work

    From work

  • Joe

    I don’t have a Facebook account, but I sure wish I could have posted my workspace pics… Is there any way to email them in CoM?

    Wow some commentators are real whingers. Thanks for sharing everyone who sent a pic in.

  • Christian

    Thanks for posting my pic as part of the cool dozen work spaces… My three monitors are for the editing computer, with the big 24 inch monitor on the right being the client view one… when not hosting clients i use that monitor as a second screen for the macbook pro…

    Liked seeing what every one else works with this was a fun thing to follow thus far seeing all us mac fans out there and how we use our machines.

    Cheers

    “Christian Henning has a tidy editing suite running a G5 MacPro …” Probably you mean a PowerMac G5 ! ;-)

  • ged

    surely by def on CoM you cannot be cool with non-Apple products?

  • Jon

    on page one you have a typo. G5′s weren’t called mac pros, just PowerMac G5′s. Kinda surprised that such a mac focused blog doesn’t know this….

  • Mandy

    It’s nice to see Mac setups that aren’t completely barren and cold! I, however, prefer them that way. It’s just a nice change to see some atypical workspaces that look more lived in.

    @Al @Jon – thanks for the catch on the mis-ID of Christian’s PowerMac; what I get for writing this late at night.

  • Nils Bertrand

    Thanks for choosing my space and I do graphic design, video editing, photography, stage design, website and IT support for a private school. the reasons for the 6 screens and would love to have a couple more…need the screen space and the mouse…..hihihihi

    Thanks for posting my office. I swear that I am a mac geek it’s just all that silly tinfoil was everywhere.

    Thanks for featuring my workspace on here. I sure hope i win the mouse, i was in town today and can find nobody with any stock :-(

    Sean Caine here… Thanks for the feature – I’m flattered. That would be my HOME office in Miami, my New York one is tiny and ugly. My “office office” would be my iPhone… ofcourse.
