Deskology DESKSET Made to Match Macs

by Levi of eOffice News on June 17, 2009

Apple’s come a long way. Once a company known for their designer-friendly yet boxy, beige and black-and-white desktop computers, they now dominate technology design and set the trends for everyone else in the gadget game. But Apple’s design influence has expanded to the rest of the home office. This set of aluminum desk organizers was designed with Mac users in mind…

Constructed of 3/16″ anodized aluminum with a matte anodized finish, the DESKSET from Deskology should be the perfect set of desktop organizers for the Mac faithful.

It includes a letter-sized paper inbox, a pencil cup, a “doodad” cup and a business card holder. The bottoms are finished with laser-etched cork is used on the underside to reduce sliding and protect your desk from scratches. Although style like this won’t come cheap. The DESKSET retails for $189 (but free shipping!). If you’re so inclined, you can pick one up here at deskology.com.

Diatec’s $50 USB Multi-touch Pad for PC

by Levi of eOffice News on April 20, 2009

Just because you don’t own any of the Apple iPhone, iPod touch or MacBooks doesn’t mean you have to miss out all the fun that multi-touch offers. The Diatec SmartTrack Neo USB trackpad straight from Japan can now add this functionality to a desktop PC, and it might arrive just in time for testing on Windows 7 – the first MS’ OS with integrated multi-touch tricks.

The mini-pad measures at 3″ by 1.8″, comes with 2 buttons, and supports pretty much the same gesture controls (e.g. pinch, swipe, two-finger rotation) heavily advertised by Apple. The multi-touch USB pad is also meant to be used with both hands. We also need to remind you this is purely for PC, specifically Windows. So, if you have a PowerMac or Mac Pro, you may need to wait for Apple to release something similar or until someone convinces Diatec Mac support for the pad could be wholeheartedly welcomed by owners of pre-2007 Macs.
