Hi, anybody know what is the accessory name that use to hold the mbp?
The similar thing i could find in apple store is "Twelve South BackPack Adjustable Shelf", but it doesn't look the one in the picture

Rearrange my setup

why your macbook white in such odd position? you shud get the BookArc. think the solve the problem you are having over there bro.

BookArc is quite expensive le..

Nice setup bro..but isn't it difficult to turn on your mb? I mean you have to open the lid first right? looks too troublesome every time you want to switch on when you arrange it that way..

yup, a bit troublesome when wanna switch on. But just get used to that lo

huge screen for small ikea table
just like mine

I was wondering what software/setup I need to do so that my external display works while my Macbook White is closed.... I am sorry if this question has been asked before =/

Plug in the power adapter, plug in any usb device such as external hdd or keyboard or mouse. Close the lid, then wake your mb using your secondary keyboard. That's it

sometimes i wish Apple would have just included an option in the system pref to do that, like on windows... very troublesome la to do all that lol

everytime also need to turn on the macbook, and then quickly close the lid..... If got a setting in system pref, i think it will make everyones life easier

eh?
leave it on la. why need to switch it off?

ya, can leave on, close lid, then use mouse/keyboard to wake the macbook. but isnt it troublesome? lol

isntead of closing the lid all the time, they shud have an option in system pref, to change the primarily display to external monitor just by clicking, instead of closing lid

Thank you people!! OMG, u guys are just great!!! It did not occur my mind that it can woken up with that... I got freaked when my external display went to sleep too.... thanks away people!!

hey im thinking about purchasing about purchasing a monitor to be connected to my mbp. but im worried that the mbp might get hot if it is left closed, and not opened. unlike my sony vaio that i have connected to my current display, it is not made out of alum hence, the surface is not as hot as compared to the mbp.

really need advice on users that have already connected their mbp with external monitors: do i need to open the laptop even when connected to an external monitor to avoid heat being trapped while it is closed.

thanks in advance.
