Product: Pressure Drop zStand
Category: Stands
Summary:
zStand, the first sleek, stylish monitor stand that ingeniously includes a USB 2.0 and FireWire 400 combination hub hidden in the back is designed to perfectly accommodate a Mac mini. Delivering beauty through its stylish "Z" shape but brawn through its dual hardened steel support walls, zStand gracefully elevates monitors weighing up to 50 lbs. to a more ergonomically correct height, easing common neck and shoulder fatigue associated with improper monitor positioning. Hidden from view, however, is a combination hub that offers more expansion ports for the Mac mini than any other hub on the market today. [List Price: $99.99]

Cons... It's ugly.
Pros... I don't own one.
Seriously... it's all personal taste. I don't think much can go wrong with a stand.
I have the Grandstand steel. It's built like a tank

There are some other nice stands on this site as well.
Google Mac mini stands and you'll get a better idea of what is out there. |

| I was more interested in the built-in USB/FW capabilities. If anyone found them problematic. I will look at the other offerings. |

Bandit, have you tried to access this URL lately?
It comes up with an error for me, possibly because Plasticsmith is no longer in business.

I hadn't tried. I'd sell you mine seeing you live in Canada. $15 + shipping could probably get it to you for around $20-25. I don't use it anymore because I bought a LaCie mini and changed my setup.
Normally I couldn't be bothered to sell my stuff, but if it is going to good use then I don't mind taking the time.
I see there is a plasticsmith.ca out of Vancouver maybe that is the same company. |
