    First Optimus Configurator Layers Released
    http://www.artlebedev.com/everything/optimus/downloads/

    Look for the 'Layer presets for Configurator' sidebar. We've added first six layers for Mac OS X apps.



    At the moment the process of adding new layouts requires some time and attention. Fully automatic preprogrammed layer bundles will be available in future releases of Configurator for both Mac and PC.

    Please send your comments to tema@tema.ru.

    Optimus Maximus Coffee Spill Test
    Optimus Maximus survives first recorded coffee spill thanks to the construction of the upper tray.



    Warning: don't spill any liquids on any keyboards because this is stupid and voids any warranties.

    Optimus Pultius - a 15-keys addition to any keyboard. To be used with the Maximus or with any other non-display keyboard.

    Optimus Pultius uses the same principles as Maximus, has the same display keys and the same set of ports on the back (using one instead of two additional USB hub slots).

    Art. Lebedev Studio's Optimus Store in NY
    There are seven offline Art. Lebedev Studio stores on European side of Atlantic (where we sell what we design - from chocolate sweets to electronics).

    On 08.08.2008 we are opening our very own 8th offline store in New York.

    In the beginning it will be a 'store inside store' model - we're be based inside the RCS Computer Experience (http://www.rcsnet.com/) located at 575 Madison Ave. and E 56th Street (on the second floor, just opposite the escalator).

    Main difference of this store comparing with our other retail places is that in New York we're selling mostly electronic products, or, to be honest, we're mainly selling Optimus Maximuses there.

    So starting early August come by RCS Computer Experience in NY and grab an Optimus Maximus.
