27-in LED Cinema Display Now Available for Pre-Order

ByMike Moffit

A few days ago, several customers reported a shortage in the availability of current Apple Displays. The rumor mills mused that this indicated the immediate arrival of the new 27-in LED display. As it turns out, they were right. Earlier this morning, Apple officially made the new display available to pre-order while simultaneously discontinuing existing 24 and 30-in models.

The new display features 2560 × 1440 resolution and a 178° viewing angle in addition to several other features. Most notable are the built-in iSight camera and mic, three USB 2.0 ports and 49-watt on-board speakers. The new display retains the overall form factor of its predecessor while increasing both resolution and viewing angle. Resembling the 24-in model in terms of connectivity, the 27-in connects via Mini DisplayPort.

This means though it will work flawlessly with current generation Macs, its legacy support is somewhat limited. By eliminating the DVI based 30-in Cinema Display from their product line, Apple has made a bold move that will leave some Mac owners without the option of an Apple manufactured display. The good news, however, is that we’ve received a very limited quantity of 30-in Cinema Displays! We’re currently offering these displays with free shipping, so get them while they last!

    We will have live music and food at the Monitor Barn in Richmond, VT. VBSR is the largest socially responsible business organization in the USA (not per capita–just the largest); its 1300 members represent about 15% of Vermont’s employees and over $3.5 Billion in revenue.

  • MAC TREAT #136: Quick Search in Safari

    I’m a bit of a self-proclaimed “shortcut nut.” Whether increasing my own productivity or just wowing my friends (though they’re never really that impressed), I’m always looking for ways to ditch the mouse and keep my fingers dancing across the keys. I most recently discovered this useful Safari tip which saves the trip to the URL bar, and even allows for a quick search of Google, Bing, or Yahoo.

    Though the command is simple, it can boost your productivity ever so slightly. Upon opening a new Safari window, or from any currently open page, Simply Press: *Command-L*. Notice that the URL field in the top of the browser glows blue allowing you to enter a new web address. You can take this tip one step further by pressing *Tab*, which jumps your cursor over to the dedicated search field in the upper right.

    Keep in mind that this tip will only work as long as the URL and search fields aren’t already selected. After perfecting this trick, you should be able to get where you’re going in just a few keystrokes! If you are looking for something in a hurry, don’t hesitate to give this tip a try!

  • Small Dog at the NH Highland Games!

    We’re going to be at the “New Hampshire Highland Games Saturday and Sunday.”:http://www.nhscot.org This is the largest Scottish Heritage festival in the Northeast. Our own Hapy Mayer (who has zero Scottish heritage as far as I know) will be competing in the Heavy Athletics department, which includes events such as stone throw, caber toss, weights for distance, weight for height, hammer throw and more. Basically it’s sturdy men in tartan skirts (I mean kilts) lifting, carrying and throwing heavy objects. That’s Hapy in the photo carrying the boulders.

    Our PR partners at “PMG Public Relations”:http://www.peoplemakinggood.com will be at our table, giving away free samples of the timelessly tasty Walkers Shortbread.

    We’ll be giving away small plastic dogs, coupons, a calendar of events for our grand opening in Manchester, answering Mac questions, and running a drawing for a 27-inch iMac.

    If you’re in the area, please come say hi at our table! I’ll be there in my Scottish football jacket. My heritage is largely Scottish, so I declare it my right to enjoy the scotch tastings that will be happening later in the day. That’s my kind of heavy competition.
