Thursday, December 29th, 2011 | Author: OWC NewsFeed

Newer Technology, Inc. today announced the NuCube Vertical, a handcrafted, made in the US acrylic enclosure that enables a 2010-2011 Mac mini to be placed into a vertical position to free-up desktop space and create a stunning visual display.

Quality, Elegance, and Operating Efficiency

The thick, 3/8″ polished clear acrylic of the NuCube Vertical turns a Mac mini into a computing work of art. By reorienting a mini into a vertical position within an elegant housing, the NuCube Vertical frees up useful desktop workspace with a visual presentation reminiscent of the acclaimed PowerMac G4 Cube.

OWC’s “Area 51” Has Deals Too Good to be Kept Secret

Wednesday, December 28th, 2011 | Author: OWC Chris S.

We’ve all heard about that mysterious military facility in southern Nevada shrouded in secrecy and rumored repository of alien artifacts. We know a lot of experimental aircraft have gone through development there, and there are all sorts of theories of what other things may be going on past the video surveillance, armed guards and signs mentioning that “use of deadly force is authorized.” Whatever’s there, though, we’re pretty sure it’s something that a lot of people want to see.

OWC has its own “Area 51,” of sorts, except our version has considerably fewer alien autopsies and threats of violence. Instead, we’ve got 51 jaw-dropping deals that aren’t going to be around long, because we’re pricing them to move over the next few days.

With deals starting at 39¢ and absolutely nothing over $60, these treasures are not to be missed. But don’t wait too long; you need to order by Saturday. If you don’t, these great deals will disappear, just like those lights in the sky along Nevada State Route 375. So check them out now… before it’s too late!

Ring in the New Year with OWC Gear!

Tuesday, December 27th, 2011 | Author: OWC NewsFeed

Well, Christmas has passed, Hanukkah is in the final stretch, Boxing Day has come and gone, the Festivus Pole has been put away, and now we’re looking at the end of the year. For some, this means getting those “extras” like more RAM or an SSD for their new Mac, a case/carrier for their new iPad, or more storage to hold all those new digital photos and music. For others, it’s a matter of getting that new equipment for the office by the end of the year for tax purposes. Still others may just want a great deal on something they really want.

No matter what your reasoning is, OWC has the gear you need, and can get it to you before year’s end.

If you got a new Mac this year (or even if you’ve had one for a while now and would like to breathe some new life into it), adding more memory and an SSD can unleash your computer’s full potential.

Did you get a new phone, tablet, mp3 player, or other device that charges via USB? Don’t mess with those bulky and ugly wall adapters or tie up the USB ports on your computer simply to charge it. The award-winning Power2U wall outlet from Newer Technology is the first UL-listed wall outlet with integrated USB charging ports.

For those of you looking for an amazing deal, we still have a sizable list of holiday specials left on our Holiday Savers page. You can find memory upgrade kits starting at $26.50, DIY 2.5” Hard Drive Bundles up to 1.0TB, and much more.

And if you order by December 31, and use the Checkout with Amazon option on your order, you can save up to an additional $50 on your order.

Let your computer start the new year the right way: with upgrades and accessories from OWC!
