LowKey Stand Keeps Your Mac Setup Tidy

050808lowkeystand.jpegVery slick, Macessity...very, very slick. The LowKey Stand is a powder-coated platform that perfectly compliments your aluminum sheathed iMac or Apple Display, providing a measured cubby slot to tuck away your keyboard while also providing a useful and easy to reach 4-port USB 2.0 hub up front. Love this type of minimal-modern integration...

050808lowkeystand03.jpgThe LowKey Stand supports up to 35lbs, so don't be tossing on your 500lbs 10 year old CRT monitor onto this display stand. Available for $59.99. If you can do without the USB hub, you can just get a SlimKey Stand for $39.99, an option we might investigate for our dual Dell 24" setup.

I got the low key stand as soon as it came out. Love it. It's beautiful and useful. Hold's my 24" white iMac perfectly. Highly recommend.

nice stand, but there need to be USB ports in the front and in the back. I don't think a ton of people need 4 in the front, 2 in the front and 4 in the back would be awesome, cut down on cable clutter.

Second note, this was posted about a month or two ago here. It seems like a lot of things are getting posted about multiple times.

This is very cool. I too have a 24" Dell with the Logitech wireless slim keyboard. I'm going to measure it up and see if this is a good solution

Yup. The base of the white imac is aluminum which matches the stand perfectly. My wireless keyboard slides in and is out of the way when not in use. I use the USB port for peripherals I use occasionally...for more permanent peripherals I use a very cool Belkin hub.

Anything similar for those of us who prefer the old keyboards?

This is rad. I wish there was a similar thing for neatly pairing a macbookpro and a display.

jmorey,
Perhaps you can rotate the LowKey 180° to have the USB ports at the back?
