The BookArc, from Twelve South, is a simple, elegant way to operate your closed MacBook, MacBook Air, or MacBook Pro while at home. It literally turns your laptop into a mini-tower desktop computer. Carved from strong, heavy gauge steel, BookArc vertically holds any MacBook, MacBook Air, or MacBook Pro be it 13", 15" or 17". Park your BookArc-cradled MacBook next to your LED Cinema Display and you’ll have the coolest desktop/laptop set-up your desk has ever seen.

Features
- Clear off your desk: BookArc helps you free up valuable real estate on your desk, giving you a cleaner, less cluttered, Zen-like workspace. With a footprint of 10-by-4 inches, BookArc takes up a fraction of the space your MacBook wastes just lying around. And while it takes your MacBook to new heights, BookArc rests on soft, silicone footpads that keep it from leaving any unwanted surface marks or scratches on your desk.
- Fits like a glove: To ensure the perfect fit, BookArc includes three different sized scratch-free, silicone cushions. These gently grip the various MacBook models and ensure the perfect fit right out of the box. Cushions are super easy to install and remove making it easy for BookArc to switch from one MacBook to another.
- Speed up your MacBook: Along with a stunning design and improved ergonomics, BookArc can actually boost the performance of your laptop. When your MacBook is running closed in the BookArc, your machine will automatically dedicate 100% of its video memory to the external display - instead of splitting it with the internal display. You’ll enjoy a noticeable speed increase when working in Photoshop, Aperture, iPhoto and other graphics-intensive applications. So can a notebook stand really speed up your MacBook? If it’s a BookArc, the answer is yes.

This Laptop stand solution may seem expensive for what it is - let's face it, it is simply a curved piece of metal with a slot in it. However, the
Twelve South BookArc is beautifully tailored to fit the entire range of Mac laptops and elegantly frees up desk space when running the laptop with
external display, keyboard and mouse. Reclamation of my desk space when running my laptop in this mode, was for me, sufficient to justify the cost of
this product. It really does looks great too.
