OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 Beta Adds Retina Support For 4K Displays

Apple recently released OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 beta, and according to the guys over at MacRumors, it add support for 4K displays to have a Retina resolution.
This has apparently been tested out using a late 2013 Retina MacBook Pro and also the new Mac Pro together with Dell’s Ultrasharp 24 Ultra HD monitor.




This could possibly mean that as well as adding Retina support for third party 4K displays, Apple is working on their own 4K display.
There have been rumors for a while that Apple will release a 4K resolution version of their Thunderbolt Display, the last release of the Thunderbolt Display was around two years ago.
As yet Apple have not confirmed that they have a new 4K resolution Thunderbolt display in the works, although we suspect that we may see one from Apple some time this year.


Adjustable Fuel Charger Tablet And Smartphone Stand

If you are in the market for a new portable smartphone or tablet stand the new Adjustable Fuel Charger maybe worth more investigation as it combines both a stand and extra battery power pack in one handy portable device.
When not in use the Adjustable Fuel Charger folds up into a handy compact portable emergency battery pack roughly the same size of a pack of cards. Watch the video after the jump to see how versatile this smartphone and tablet stand is.







Power Design the creators of the Adjustable Fuel Charger explain a little bit more about their new adjustable stand and battery pack :
“There are plenty of tablet/smartphone holders out there. We have tried a lot of them out. There are a lot of cool design and ones that look nice. However when we sat down at Power Design to design a tablet/smartphone holder we wanted to do something different. We have a few very talented designers and some great engineers, each with very different perspectives. We felt if we could bring these areas of expertise together in just the right way we could make something cool.”





 The Adjustable Fuel Charger project is currently over on the Kickstarter crowd funding website looking to raise enough pledges to make the jump from concept to production. So if you think the stand and charger is something you could benefit from, visit the Kickstarter website now
