That would look really good vectorized.  Samsung monitors have that nice
curve to them that makes it look really good.  Or maybe even make a
combination of that Samsung you listed and
this<http://www.alltuts.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/photoshop_icon_lcd_monitor.jpg>one.
 The keyboard also fits very well with it.  As for a mouse, maybe
something like this<http://www.techgadgets.in/wireless/2007/19/logitech-vx-nano-cordless-laser-mouse-unveiled-in-india/>?
(Sorry if it's already been created, i'm new and trying to get in the flow
of things.)
