“The Pro Stand has an intricately engineered arm that perfectly counterbalances the display so it feels virtually weightless, allowing users to easily place it into position,” the company notes on its website. That’s on top of the hefty price tag for its new Mac Pro desktop, which starts at $6,000, and a display monitor, the Pro Display XDR, a 32-inch 6K retina LCD display ($4,999).
After making sure the part fits through the access port, I’d remove the mount assembly and work with it on its own.Apple product launches always get buzz, but one new gadget announcement has left some people bemused: a monitor stand that costs more than many computers.Īt its annual Worldwide Developer Conference in San Jose this week, Apple ( AAPL) revealed a collection of new products, including a monitor stand for $999. With a properly shaped piece of metal, all you really need is a tap and die kit to create threaded bolt holes, plus perhaps a drill for the VESA mount plate.
Not unlike the original iMac VESA adapter. Thus, all you really need to do is fabricate a short adapter that will attach to the mount assembly internally, extend beyond the shell of the iMac, and attach to a VESA mount plate. The mount assembly is much the same as the old one with the major difference being the aforesaid orientation of the set screws. Important note: Macworld and I take absolutely no responsibility for any damage you do to your iMac during any step of any alteration or use of a homemade adapter. I’m merely pointing out possible paths to VESA compatibility for those willing to take a risk-an extremely slight one if you’re capable.
Alternatively, the brains to let someone who really knows what they’re doing handle it. Now I’m going to address the distinct minority of the iMac community who have the ability and gumption to disassemble their iMac, as well as fabricate simple metal parts. Advanced DIY (or have someone else do it)
