DavidS: February 2010 Archives
At Macworld 2010 we had noticed another symbiotic product being made from another smaller company such as ourselves. they were just a few booths down one row near us.
Flatscreen Arms http://www.tvmonitorarms.com/ makes some of the nicest monitor arms we have ever seen.
Stainless Steel and Brass are used , as well as billet aluminum heads. For quality that can handle your precious Mac with confidence and style they look like the go-to arms manufacturer.
Some of their arms have Variable tension adjustable heads, and gas assisted monitor arms..Whoa...
They have 6 variations of arm-mounts, 3 of which are devoted to the Mac ; covering the below displays:
19", 20", 21.5" 24", and 27" iMac
24" LCD
30" Display
Check them out when you get a chance.
These arms will work fantastic in combination with any of our Kanex adapters. You can stick the entire cable onto the arm or just behind the monitor and hide it from view.
When using your Macbook to deliver a presentation, you want it to be colorful, meaningful, enthusiastic and passionate, just like Steve Job's presentations. That's why you connect to a projector and show it to everyone in the room.
With the Kanex Apple adapters you can do that and more!
The Kanex iAdapt 20 and iAdapt 51 seamlessly add sound to the mix, taking your mini-display port and adapting it to an HDMI connector with sound.
Hopefully using this adapter with your media-rich presentation will help your numbers and graphs leap off the screen and into the minds of your audience.
Here are some resources for making that presentation work for you using Apple's iWork Keynote:
Online resources, such as keynoteuser.com, offer great custom themes and tips.

You want to experiment on an external monitor before presenting live! There are two screens you need to adjust and you want to match these settings to have it display on the projector only.
