Rack trays, hanging docks for latest Mac mini

Santa Ana accessory maker Macessity has resized three of its support products for the 2010 Mac mini to accommodate the changes in dimensions of the latest model. Offerings include a rack tray for server setups that supports up to four Mac minis, a "hanging" housing meant to be mounted as an under-shelf with full swivel accessibility, and a revision of their original "Hang With Mi" that features a four-port USB2 hub.

The MX4-V2 rack tray is made specifically for the 2010 Mac mini (the older MX4 for previous versions of the Mini is still available). It features a large bottom hole for easy access to the underside of the Mini (RAM accessibility, etc) and additional holes for easy cable management. Mounting hardware is included; it is available now, and the unit retails for $80.

The Mi360 mount swivels a full 360 degrees, allowing easy access to the back of the unit while still in its protective dock. The unit, aimed at schools and businesses, features a locking tab for theft deterrence. The bracket is aluminum in color to match the 2010 model, and is due to ship in 2-3 weeks (retailing for $50).

Finally, the MiClassic ($55) is an update to the "Hang With Mi" under-shelf mount that incorporates a four-port USB hub and matching finish. It features a compact power adapter and can be optionally fitted with a Swivel Bracket ($20), giving it the same rotation as the Mi360. It also is expected to ship in 2-3 weeks.
