Win a BookEndz Dock for MacBook from Macsimum News

If you failed to win the BookEndz Dock for MacBook that we gave away last month, Macsimum News (MN) is offering you another chance.

It's almost April, so they're having a good, old-fashioned Easter Egg Hunt. Several articles on the site will be littered with colorful eggs. Keep track of which eggs appear where between today (Feb. 25) and March 18, then email your findings back to the folks at MN. You can read the full details here.

The BookEndz Dock is a cool product. In our previous review, Mat said, "The MacBook model looks particularly nice with a built-in 5 port powered USB hub and both VGA and DVI connectors...and [makes] moving a MacBook (Pro) between locations with many different peripherals quite easy."

Good luck, everyone.

BookEndz: Mac Portable Docking Stations

BookEndz produces pretty nifty docking stations for Mac portables, which duplicate nearly all of your ports and thus make moving a MacBook (Pro) between locations with many different peripherals quite easy. The MacBook station (right) is available in black or white and will be shipping in "late February." The MacBook Pro docking station is available now for the 15" model (no 17" model yet, but they have one for the old 17" PowerBook so it stands to reason that they'll eventually get around to it). They have stations for many older Mac portables as well (PowerBooks and iBooks).

The MacBook model looks particularly nice with a built-in 5 port powered USB hub and both VGA and DVI connectors. The MacBook version will sell for $159.00 while the 15" MacBook Pro version is $299.00.
