Making your room a shrine to some form of content seems a bit more rational than making it into a shrine for the content delivery system though.
But then people have similar shrines for their chosen car manufacturer, gun maker or snowboard company, so who really cares. Better than making your home into a temple for Patrick Bateman.
But the picture would have been a lot better if under all the Apple paraphernalia some crappy old Acer laptop and a Walmart PC was rotting away.

The Apple sign isn't a big deal considering it's a unique light. I sort of like it and I am not an Apple guy. I've had neon beer signs before. And even the "Pro" sign can just be a funny piece of decor. But the framed Time magazines is a little weird.

Pretty much. I don't see many rooms decorated with the name of a cheap DVR manufacturer, yet people probably spend a lot of their time watching TV

Honestly it'd probably look a ton better if it weren't right above the monitors. To much light coming from one area. Put it off on a side wall.

Put it over the framed Steve Jobs stuff where the larger apple logo piece of aluminum is and put that over the monitors. Probably would look better. Or put it in the window so people know you like apple THAT much.

The house is a rental, so the window dressing wasn't chosen by us for those of you truly interested.

I just noticed that the picture was from right after I got the desk. The little white plastic piece with the Apple Logo isn't there any longer. It was sitting on my old desk and I placed it there so it would be out of the way. Hopefully 1 less apple logo in my office makes me less of a loser.

I think we're all just blown away by how many apples you have.

Is a iMac even considered a "Pro"? Maybe if the money you saved for a giant glowing signs was funneled into buying a better computer you wouldn't need the sign. The only thing missing is candles and a prayer mat.

The "Pro" could be acerbic commentary on Apple's total unwillingness to actually build a professional desktop machine nowadays, but given the other responses, I doubt it.

I love the monitor layout you've got going on here with the 27 and 20, it looks really clean. What kind are they?
