Twelve South HiRise takes iMacs and Apple displays to new heights, tidies up in the process
Posted in: Today's Chili 
Many of those who buy iMacs and Apple-designed displays are eager to avoid clutter in the first place, which makes an organizer all the more logical for those who’d like Desk Zero almost as much as Inbox Zero. Accessory maker Twelve South’s newly available HiRise aims to clean it all up — and lift it up. The aluminum-and-steel frame elevates Apple’s modern all-in-ones and screens to any one of six points while conveniently leaving storage space that goes with the local computing decor, whether it’s to hold external hard drives or car keys. Although the HiRise is no trivial expense at $80, it’s better for propping up an iMac than an old college textbook, and arguably more useful as a whole.

There’s a special moment in every operating system’s life when it loses its innocent .0 status and grows up. It’s OS X Mountain Lion’s turn to mature, as Apple has just pushed out the 10.8.1 update for early adopters. Most of the fixes are for issues that plague specific use cases, such as audio output from a Thunderbolt Display or crashes in Migration Assistant. There are a few remedies that a wider audience might appreciate — a fix for iMessages that don’t send and an improvement to Exchange compatibility in Mail, for example. We don’t yet know of any surprises lurking underneath, but it can’t hurt to have a smoother-running Mac while we investigate.

Apple’s Thunderbolt Displays now reportedly shipping with Magsafe-to-Magsafe 2 adapters
Posted in: Today's Chili
If you’ve recently purchased the new MacBook Air and MacBook Pro computers that was announced just last month and were planning to match it with Apple’s Thunderbolt Display, you might be interested to learn that Apple has made a small update to the device’s SKU and is reportedly shipping it now with a new Magsafe-to-Magsafe 2 adapter that will be compatible with Apple’s new computers. This was reported by the folks at 9to5 Mac who were quoted as saying:
“We’ve gotten word that Apple has slightly tweaked its Thunderbolt Display SKU, and these units have begun shipping to Apple Stores and Apple Official Resellers worldwide. The change was first noticed by our sources when Apple retired the Thunderbolt Display‘s MC914LL/A part code and replaced it with MC914LL/B just a couple of days ago.”
Alternatively if you ordered a new Thunderbolt Display and it has yet to arrive at your home, and you discover it does not come with the adapter, you will able to purchase it via Apple’s website or at an Apple retail store for only $10. Not really a big deal but we’re sure it’s a convenience that new MacBook owners will probably be able to appreciate.
