OWC is Takin’ It to the Streets
Wednesday, January 26th, 2011 | Author: OWC Chris S.
No, we haven’t suddenly become fans of The Doobie Brothers circa 1976. We’re actually rolling up our sleeves, getting out there and interfacing with you, our customers, both locally and on a larger scale.
Locally, we’ll have a representative at the February 12th meeting of The NorthWest of Us Mac Users Group. TNWoU and OWC have had a long-time relationship, and we’re always glad to help out a neighbor.
It’ll be a two-part session. The first part will cover basic upgrades to improve the performance of your Mac, such as upgrading to a faster/larger hard drive and adding more memory. The speed benefits of adding an SSD will also be discussed.
The second part will address methods of data protection. These will include single drives for simple backup, RAID setups for added protection against hardware failure, and network solutions to provide secure backup and allow file sharing for all computers in your house/business.
Check out The NorthWest of Us Web site for more information.
On the more immediate end of things, if you happen to be in the San Francisco are this week, you can catch some of the OWC crew at Macworld Expo 2011. They’ll be showing off all our latest and greatest accessories for your Mac, including the new line of SSDs that we debuted earlier in the month.
If you haven’t picked up your tickets to the expo floor yet, you’re in luck. While the discount for the conferences has passed, those of you who just want to go to the exhibits (which is where the OWC booth is located) can take advantage of an exclusive OWC offer – free Exhibit-only Admission is available through the show. All you need to do is pop on over to our Web site and register. Once you do, come see the OWC crew at Booth #513.
Tell ‘em OWC Chris sent you.

On the Road to Macworld Expo 2010
Monday, February 8th, 2010 | Author: OWC NewsFeed
Macworld Expo 2010 is right around the corner. Although Apple isn’t going to be there, your pals from OWC and Newer Technology certainly are. We’ve been preparing for months, and we’re excited to be showing off all the nifty new OWC and NewerTech products we’ve released over the last few months.
- The OWC Mercury Elite-AL Pro mini is a compact, portable version of OWC’s award winning desktop-sized solution line that is bus-powered, fanless and sports a “Quad” Interface.
- The NewerTech NuPower High Capacity batteries for MacBook and MacBook Pro offer up to 10% higher capacity than the factory original.
- The NewerTech Video Display Adapter allows you add up to four displays to your Mac via USB.
- The NewerTech mini-DisplayPort Adapter series allows you to attach a DVI, HDMI or even VGA display to your mini-DisplayPort equipped Mac while offering better cabling and shielding than the standard adapter does.
- With NewerTech’s Window Mount for the iPhone 3G/3GS, featuring an exact fit cradle and super vacuum adhesion, your iPhone 3G/3GS will remain securely in place in your car, boat or even on an airplane tray table!
- The pocket-sized NuPower Charge & Sync+ lets you recharge your digital devices (including cell phones and digital cameras!) via a standard AC outlet or the built-in battery.
- The NewerTech MAXPower SATA 6G PCIe Controller Card for you Mac Pro (and PC’s, too) – High Performance. No drivers.
- The OWC Mercury Extreme SSD – we’re darn proud of our new internal 2.5” Solid State Drive. Sustained data transfer rates for both read and write speeds of over 260MB/s make our new SSDs among the fastest, if not the very fastest SATA I/II SSD on the market today. That’s why we’ve submitted it for Best of Show consideration.
But that’s not all…
We’ve also got a wonderful display where we show you how to integrate a Mac into your home theater system, info about our LEED Platinum Level “Green” facilities, the OWC Podcast booth, and—since His Steveness won’t be there to give one himself— “one more thing” in the form of a new OWC product. And, of course, we have show specials for the entire run of the show.
See you there!
OWC Tips n’ Deals 1-5-2009 MacWorld Expo Edition
Monday, January 5th, 2009 | Author: OWC Larry
A heart hello from San Francisco! As the final hours and minutes tick down, the team and I are all ready to go and looking forward to the opening of the Expo tomorrow at 11AM. Apple’s keynote, as has been the tradition – and looking like for the last time, will officially start the expo tomorrow.
This is the first year, since Steve Jobs came back to Apple, that it won’t be Mr. Jobs talking up all that Apple’s ready to show off and hype to the world. We hope Mr. Jobs is in good health and that other pressing matters are the reason for ‘Phil’ giving this years opener. Who knows, maybe he’ll still drop on by with some kind of appearance. Given that Apple has announced this to be their last year participating with the Expo, you’d sure think they’d be going out with some kind of bang. We’ll see.
**Breaking News(click for full story) – Steve Jobs advises his health is good – has suffered weight loss due to a hormonal problem that has been identified and treated. He stated that doctors expect him to recover back to his normal weight by spring***
