One of the conference rooms

One of the conference rooms here in the English dept of SCSU is pretty friggin' awesome. It's a huge wall-mounted flat panel and a Mac mini, attached to a wireless keyboard with a laptop-style touch pad built in. It's truly a wonder, and I love using it. I really love the concept of a Mac Mini in general; if you haven't seen them, it's one of those "wow!" moments when you realize how much they've packed into such a small box.

That said, I'll always be a desktop man. Give me a big honking tower and lots of gadgets and cards to stuff into it and I'm a happy camper. I just can't get used to the idea of a laptop as my main, though I see why Bill enjoys them. I hope, though, that the qualifier "if you're a gamer" will ever apply to me, though. :P I don't care what anyone says, a device of ANY sort that can run kick-ass games is probably more than enough to handle any OTHER application or need you might have, so you might as well always go for the best.
