Computers Unlimited, a leading European IT & CE distributor, announces the launch of twelve south’s new BookArc, a smooth, sleek and portable stand designed and engineered to make it a must-have accessory for Apple’s MacBook Air and Pro. Tailored to precisely fit MacBook Air 11†and 13â€, as well as MacBook Pro 13â€, 15†and 17â€, the soft silicone insert is molded to follow the smooth curves of the laptop whilst the discreet cable management keeps desktop connections handy and accessible at all times.
The BookArc uses minimal desk space and allows for users to connect to a large monitor whilst at home, in the office or in a hotel. Working with the MacBook in the closed position while connected to an Apple Thunderbolt Display allows users to work from a bigger screen.  With the OS X Lion introduction of full-screen apps, users have all the more reason to use one screen instead of two. Moving from two screens to one external set-up featuring a BookArc can also give the MacBook a performance boost, by reducing the number of pixels driven by the laptop’s internal video memory, which ensures graphic intensive apps like Photoshop and iPhoto feel noticeably faster.
Pricing and availability
The twelve South BookArc is available from Amazon and Apple Premium resellers, Compu Ireland and Square Group.
The BookArc retails for £34.99 for MacBook Air sizes and £39.99 for MacBook Pro models.
