Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

BookArc from Twelve South, is a simple, elegant way to operate your closed MacBook while at home. It literally turns your laptop into a mini-tower desktop computer. Carved from strong, heavy gauge steel, BookArc vertically holds any MacBook from MacBook Air to the 17-inch MacBook Pro. Park your BookArc-cradled MacBook next to your LED Cinema Display and you’ll have the coolest desktop/laptop set-up your desk has ever seen.

Clear off your desk.

BookArc helps you free up valuable real estate on your desk, giving you a cleaner, less cluttered, Zen-like workspace. With a footprint of 10-by-4 inches, BookArc takes up a fraction of the space your MacBook wastes just lying around. And while it takes your MacBook to new heights, BookArc rests on soft, silicone footpads that keep it from leaving any unwanted surface marks or scratches on your desk.

Fits like a glove.

To ensure the perfect fit, BookArc includes three different sized scratch-free, silicone cushions. These gently grip the various MacBook models and ensure the perfect fit right out of the box. Cushions are super easy to install and remove making it easy for BookArc to switch from one MacBook to another.

Can a stand speed up your MacBook?

Along with a stunning design and improved ergonomics, BookArc can actually boost the performance of your laptop. When your MacBook is running closed in the BookArc, your machine will automatically dedicate 100% of its video memory to the external display - instead of splitting it with the internal display. You’ll enjoy a noticeable speed increase when working in Photoshop, Aperture, iPhoto and other graphics-intensive applications. So can a notebook stand really speed up your MacBook? If it’s a BookArc, the answer is yes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb quality, but pricey, 15 Oct 2009

By	M. D. Harris (Leicester, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you regularly use your MacBook in clamshell mode (attached to an external monitor with it's lid closed) the BookArc is a really handy piece of kit, freeing up desk space and effectively turning a MacBook into a slimline desktop.

Clearly Twelve South have taken a few pointers from Apple and have made a real effort with the finish and packaging of the BookArc. A substantial box gives an air of quality before you've even got to the product itself. Open the box up and there's a little 'thank you' visible through the slot of the BookArc - which helps a little in softening the blow of the cost. The BookArc itself is made of 3mm thick steel (which certainly gives it a bit of weight) and is painted exactly the same shade of silver as my MacBook Pro. Rubber feet stop it from sliding around and scratching work surfaces and three rubber slot inserts should cover all recent Apple laptops. Also, the solitary Twelve South logo is pleasingly discrete.

In use it works a treat. Ok so it's just an expensive piece of bent metal, but it's freed up some desk space, made it easier to access drive slots and accessory ports and with the higher performance 9600gt graphics option enabled my MacBook it feels a lot cooler than it did sitting flat on the desk. The gap for the laptop is perhaps a bit wider than it needs to be, but that does mean when you pick up the laptop the stand doesn't go with it.

The only negative point I can see is the price, even if it is very well made and presented, but if you can accept that I don't think you'll be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hidden Beauty, 25 Dec 2009

By	M. Hodd - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This item lies hidden behind my big screen monitor. It keeps all of the leads out of sight and organized in my studio. It is perfectly beautiful but even more useful and this is why it is hidden. Function over Aesthetics... Pricey but invaluable. And if i ever feel like showcasing the beauty all i need to do is get it out..

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, 5 Dec 2009

By	Awaise Tahir "I love Metallica and Guns N' Roses" (Manchester, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Heard about these on ModMyi and they're pretty neat, pricey though! Does what it says and looks good. Has a solid feel to it and comes in a pretty neat luxury box.
