Chill Pill Audio, a division of Small Dog Electronics, is excited to announce the arrival of the new *Bluetooth Chill Pill Mobile Speaker*!
You may be familiar with the original Chill Pill: a pocket-sized, self-contained capsule that transforms into two powered speakers. The new Bluetooth Chill Pill (BT CP for short) has the same ultra-portable and rechargeable design with the added bonus of Bluetooth connectivity. This means that you can listen to your music wirelessly wherever you go.
The BT CP can connect to a wide range of Bluetooth-capable devices (computers, phones, iPads and many, many more!) and also to any device that has a headphone jack thanks to the retractable audio cable.
The BT CP makes the perfect stocking stuffer, Yankee Swap gift, or end-of-the-world present (if the Mayans were right). Or treat yourself and enjoy your music out loud on the go!

For four days only, we’re doubling the free gift with the purchase of any Mac bundle we’re featuring for the holidays! Here’s the deal: Buy any Mac, add AppleCare and a backup drive, and you’ll get your choice of a *$50 Small Dog gift card or two Chill Pill mobile speakers (an $80 value).*
The great thing about doubling your gift is that you now have less work to do: Keep a Chill Pill for yourself or give them both away. That special someone will definitely feel the holiday love with a $50 gift card that’s good for both Smalldog.com or in any of our retail locations. It’s a win-win — all you had to do was wait until the last minute to finish your holiday shopping!
Watching the numbers this year? So are we. AppleCare is already $20 off Apple’s pricing when bought with a Mac, select hard drives from our top brands are $10 off, and we have a huge selection of genuine Apple-refurbished Macs in stock that are up to $1,000 off original pricing. (15” or 17” MacBook Pros, anyone? They start at $1249.99 — seriously.) That potentially brings your total savings to over $1,100 off!
Shop our Holiday page for more gift ideas! Don’t forget that you can get a $25 gift card or free Chill Pill when you buy a Mac plus AppleCare and essential hard drive.
Find a retail store here! iPads are exclusively in-store, and both our S. Burlington and Manchester locations have extended holiday hours. Come see us!
For only $20, you can purchase an *Ethic WINGStand* to use with your Apple Wireless Keyboard, a *PDO Anti-Glare Screen Protector* to keep your iPad mini free and clear of those pesky scratches and an *AppleJuice Screen Cleaning Keychain Kit*, not a bad deal if you ask me — not bad at all.
One of things that Apple is known best for is its clean design aesthetic. And when it comes to ever sleeker MacBooks and iMacs, there is no doubt that aspect is a plus, but every once in a while it seems the folks at 1 Infinite Loop take things a little too far.
For instance, in recent versions of the Mac OS, the default Finder Preferences setting hides the internal hard drive, which for decades had appeared in the upper right corner of the desktop (along with any other mounted volumes). I can only imagine that it was considered an ugly blight by the designers at Apple, marring the otherwise pristine view of the desktop’s Andromeda Galaxy (in Lion) or NGC 3190 (in Mountain Lion).
I’ve had many clients ask about the mystery of both the “missing drive” or the CD or DVD they are sure they’ve put in their Mac but can’t find to eject. There are certainly other ways to access the hard drive or other mounted volumes, but for those that share my “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” philosophy, here’s a way to get these icons back.
With the Finder active, select *Preferences…* from the Finder menu. Under General, there is a section labeled *Show these items on the desktop:.* Here, you have the option to show (or not show) other items that frequently graced the desktop by default in past versions of the Finder: external disks (including USB flash drives), CDs, DVD and iPods (oh…that’s where they went), connected servers, and of course, the aforementioned internal hard drives.
Feel free to turn the devices you’d like to see on, and once again, enjoy the easy desktop access you’re accustomed to!
Next time… Oh no, Mountain Lion ate my scroll bars!
I will have to get to work on my 2013 predictions and recap over the next couple of weeks. Time seems to fly faster and faster as you get older, and it seems like this year was a flash. So much happened that we will do a 2012 year-in-review next week to slow things down just a bit.
Thank you for reading this issue of Kibbles & Bytes — our 806th issue!
