Apple Imac Wall Mount System - VESA Adapter Bracket For 17 Inch And 20 Inch Imac G5, Intel And Core

Written by oneself on 5:52 AM


By Scott Powers

If you have been looking for an adapter bracket to mount your iMac, but have not been able to find one, you are not alone. Thousands of iMac users, specifically with the later 17" and 20" G5, G5 w/iSight, iMac Intel and Core 2 Duo Intel iMac, were left to figure out how to attach their computers to VESA arm mount and wall mounting systems. With these particular iMac models the stand, often referred to as the "boot", can not be easily removed. Also, I have found that many people purchased the iMac because it is portable and they like the ability to take their iMac with them when they travel. So, removing the stand is not a practical solution for them.

Not too long ago I was in the same predicament. My business is providing anti-theft security devices to schools and hospitals. If a customer wants a computer, monitor, or audio/visual device protected from being stolen or moved, they call me in and I lock it down. A recent project called for me to mount iMac computers for a client. No security features were needed, they just wanted to save work space by mounting their iMac Intel computers up and out of the way. I just assumed there was an adapter bracket out there to purchase and it wasn't until I needed to order them that I realized I was wrong! That the "simple solution" I was depending on didn't exist. Finding the necessary arm mounts and wall mount systems was easy, but attaching my customer's iMacs to the mounting systems was a whole other thing.

After extensively searching online, I concluded I would need to make my own adapter bracket. As I was researching blogs and forums I discovered that there were many people out there also looking for a solution. In discussing it with them, I got a feel for what they were looking for and created an adapter bracket to meet important requirements many of them have. The top 3 requirements are:

(1) The bracket will not require the stand to be removed from the iMac.

(2) It should be interchangeable with both 17" and 20" iMac computers.

(3) The bracket should be esthetically suitable for the iMac; simple to attach and detach.

I successfully met these requirements with the bracket I have designed. It is made from high-grade aircraft aluminum and will have a finish like that of the stand on the iMac. It will mount to both the 17" and 20" stand so there would be no need to purchase a new adapter should you change from one to the other. Attaching the adapter to the iMac is easily done in under minute, it is very user friendly and esthetically pleasing.

If you are searching for an adapter bracket to mount your iMac computer, your search is over! For more information, please visit my website.

Thank you!

Who Needs An Apple iPhone - Details on how to get it for FREE?

Written by oneself on 4:30 AM

Although the impending launch of the Apple iPhone means that many who see the next generation smartphone is sure to want one, we have identified a few key consumers who might find the iPhone an indispensable tool.

The Students: Given Apple's close link to the academic community, it's inevitable that there will be some alliances forged between the two realms of Apple's cutting edge design and technology and the needs of academia.

One of Steve Jobs' previous start-ups, NeXT, focused on higher education and business markets, while its Mac line of desktops are used in biotechnology research and analytical computations.

Students using the iPhone will find its features like the ability to playback MP3 tracks useful. Not so much for catching the latest pop songs, but rather to catch education-related podcasts.

The iPhone's ability to stream video means that e-learning or distance learning can take place, as long as the academic institution has the infrastructure in place.

Having a 2-megapixel digital camera built into the iPhone means that photos can be taken with ease, whether it's for assignments or for personal recreation.

Road Warriors: Business people on the move will find the iPhone to be useful, especially with the availability of full featured Internet access, rather than the abbreviated web surfing currently available on many smartphones.

This means that not only will you be able to check for information on the Internet, it also means that secure business transactions can take place easily.

The availability of Internet access over Wi-Fi networks mean that available Web 2.0 services will allow mobile office workers to access their data on the move.

Freed from being deskbound, the Apple iPhone is currently enabled to access Google's Maps application. Over time, you can expect Apple's strategic partners to develop more business applications.

Business Owners: The workhorse nature of the iPhone together with its close integration to Apple's Safari Internet browser, mean that business applications can be used seamlessly.

We can make an educated guess that the separation between the computer and your mobile iPhone device will be erased over time.

Perhaps we might even predict that the iPhone will gradually take over the functions of your laptop or notebook computer over time.

With Apple's support for its developer network, this means that a new generation of business applications can be expected on the horizon.

- Apple's broad appeal is not just limited to the iPhone however, it's previous products such as the Mac, its followup brethren the iMac and the iPod digital music player have received a warm reception from its users.
