Another hidden peripheral holder, $2.49 at Harbor Freight. And I think that was for a pack of 5.

You're asking Apple people... people who will set a clock to get up at 3am trying to be "first"? People who would historically camp out for upwards of many hours or days so they can be among the first to buy something that is only slightly faster or slightly upgraded from almost the exact same thing they already own? ;)
I guess I'm still holding on to an outdated definition of "Apple people." Twenty years ago, it was something of a trope that Macintosh users were, on average, more educated than their Windows PC counterparts (ergo, they might not be so easily led). Apple wasn't high fashion, it was functional. I keep forgetting that's no longer the case. :rolleyes:

The leaders of the tech industry in Silicon Valley and SF all use Macs because they're the best for work.
Strangely enough, Jim Zemlin actually uses macOS.

I’m not sure why some of you are hating on the cost of Apple and Twelve South products. Twelve South makes really well-designed and high quality accessories. That comes at a cost and one that many of us are willing to pay. If its not for you, that’s cool, just move on to something that fits your own needs....but there’s no reason to hate.
Not really sure I like that word, "hating." I know it's used colloquially, but hate is such a strong word - and a lazy word. Moreover, I'm not "hating" on anything or anyone. What I am doing is gently chiding the prevailing notion that we need a bunch of expensive accessories to dress up our already expensive computers. Most people don't have a ton of superfluous cash lying around to spend on such arguably frivolous items; we're much more concerned with buying groceries and affording the damn rent.

*sigh*

I don't know. I thought the advent of the personal computer was about giving ordinary people tools so that they wouldn't be so beholden to a system largely tilted against them. Perhaps that was never really the case, but it would be disingenuous to believe that ideal now. I've never thought of my Mac or my iPhone as a status symbol. I went to great lengths to conceal my Apple Watch when I first bought it because I didn't like people making assumptions about my wealth.

Priorities, people. That's all I'm saying. :confused:

A computer able to run most of the programs people need. Might need a new CD drive.
Or maybe a Blu-Ray drive.

I’d get the backpack for the 27” imac but since the lcd on it broke and there is a $50 monitor sitting in front of the imac, it’s probably moot. So much for quality when your 2 year old $1800 imac poops out...
Yeah, that's why I prefer desktops which don't have built-in displays. It's a novel idea, but it's not very practical if something breaks.

Surprising how useful the Arc actually is. Apart from preventing you from putting your laptop flat down when not in use and inevitably putting things on top of it - books, paper, drinks, kids...it also makes it easier to pick the laptop up
