23" ACD, bluetooth all connected to 3.0GHz Quad-Core Mac Pro with 4GB RAM.
I wrote up a review of my setup if you want to read all about it.
Setup shot for Alan Brogan, Jermain Defoe, Ashley Young, and Roman Pavlychenko. Notes should explain everything. All the lights are so far apart because of having to allow for their run up when they went sprinting past the camera.

2 softbox setup

Often many people don't see lighting in photgraphy as they should, many think that is the act of throwing light to the subject, lighting should be thought as part of a concept tied with the plan of thinking in a way of emphasizing your subject and putting relevance to the features you want to give relevance, it is a plan not a dronish mechanic action where you blast light to the subject.
Here you have my beautiful friend Susy in a very simple setup:
Key: A 200ws monolight modified with an umbrella softbox.
Fill: Jumbo sized reflector (silver side used).
Background: a SB-800 in SU-4 mode.
The setup helps to cheer the mood up contrary to a low key setup, it helps to emphasize her eyes, and it makes things a lil bit dynamic without falling into flat lighting territory.
Lighting shouldn't be the same in every setup you do nor you should use the same lighting mindlessly with every subject, that's not a style :P... that's called being lazy ;)... Mr Ogalthorpe has an awesome Blog entry about it here: ogalthorpe.blogspot.com/2009/05/its-all-subjective-if-you... (NSFW) :)
My DJ Setup.
2 x Pioneer CDJ 1000 MK3
2 x Technics 1200 SL MK3
1 x Vestax PMC 08 Pro
1 x Sony Headphones
Setup for this shot.
pretty basic setup really, the fact that I stuck by elbow towards the softbox in the other picture didn't help the shot. Thinking about it now this pose might have worked better than the one I used in the end...

This is my fancy setup for a bottle series. One SB-800 shooting through a paper diffuser (right of the bottle), a SB-600 (CLS activvated by the SB-800) mounted with a snoot made of a Nutella plastic jar (you can screw on whatever color paper diffuser mounted in a proper lid), a white cardboard reflector to fill the right side, an old Micro 55mm Nikkor full manual on a D70 conected to my wife's laptop and using Nikon Control software to see what I'm doing wrong.
There were some beluga whales in the water at this location and everyone was pulling over for a view
Ok so I don't have any lights set up or anything. I just clamped this shower curtain to a beam in my basement. There isn't much room for lights here. But this is a great temp area to work. Setup shot for:

setup for this shot.
DISCLAIMER: That is not the arm pit of Mer, it was Photoshop, and yes she was sitting next to me when I did it, no she wasn't mad, and yes we did have a good laugh about it...hahahaha
a dark field, some lighting gear, some colored light emitting children's toys equal a lot of fun...
The goal here was 'fun', specifically to let people play around with this setup and see what kind of results they could get... the setup was shooting tethered so that people could see what was being captured on a near real-time basis. You can see the results of this set up here...this is a 'behind the scenes' shot.

Technical Description:
Canon 5DMkII w/ 24-70mm f/2.8L lens mounted on a Manfrotto 055CXPRO Carbon tripod, with a shutter release cable shooting tethered into a MacBook Pro running Lightroom 3. The camera was in 'bulb' mode with the shutter being opened/closed by the Canon shutter release cable (allowing the person running it to determine how long the exposure needs to be). Lighting was provided by two White Lighting X1600's mounted on C-Stands with boom arms out. The front light was up and to camera left with a large softbox difusing things, a back light to camera right was restricted with a set of barn-doors. Both lights triggered by Pocket Wizard Plus II's, Power provided by a Paul C. Buff Vagabond II. Everything was carted up there in Joleen's (my wife) 2005 Subaru WRX STI (on the left).
This photo taken by another Canon 5D with a 16-35mm f/2.8LMkII lens with another Pocket Wizard Plus II firing the strobes.
How It Works: The way the setup functions is that a puff of flash is fired when the shutter release cable is pressed, this puff of flash is the only thing that illuminates the people in the frame. After the flash people can move around with the color light sources and 'paint' until they are done. Because there is so little available light the length of time the shutter is open doesn't matter a ton, some times the people would be done in just a second or two and in others it might take ten seconds. One tip is that the strobes should be set on a low enough power that they balance out well in terms of exposure with the light sources that are being used for the 'painting', in this case the strobes were on pretty low.

From photoclub photo session. Small studio. Lots of gear & photographers = controlled chaos. Got some frames with somebody's leg or head in the picture :) Good times.
My one light setup for small product shots which has appeared several times before :)
A sweep of white cartridge paper (A3_ for the background.
A yongnuo YN460 flash set to 1/2 power and activated by a Blazzeo SLT-4 radio trigger.
A Pringles tube attached to act as a striplight reflector. This one is a little different to the one I normally use, which just has an opening covered in tracing paper to act as a diffuser.
This has a similar sized opening, but has the flaps from the opening retained and folded out to give additional reflection. This gives a harder light, for more of a shadow, which I felt suited this shot.
I see my Yongnuo SYD-0808 LED video light managed to sneak into the frame at the front left. This is used to aid focussing and to act as a work light. it is so much weaker than the flash, that is is left on at 1/2 power the whole time and has no effect on the image.
Setup shot of paper shredder.
Home made background stand, home made pvc pipe light stands, Home Depot light stands, Home Depot shower rod for light boom. Home made soft box from foam core and gaffer tape.
Home made cardboard snoots.
Purchased items are 2 grip heads, seamless paper, mini grip clamp, umbrella clamps.
Hard steel setup.
Foreground one proxxon tabel TK70 X-Y axis with extra DIY 2 rotary axis in order to position the object.
Background one extra proxxon TK70 X-Y table with extra a DIY Z axis to hold to object, background color can be used but not actieve into this picture setup.
