Source : http://gizmodo.comCouple of days before the MWSF, while Mac rumor sites are releasing photos supposed to illustrate future products from Apple, a new patent issued by Apple might defined how Cupertino is designing the future of docking station for notebooks. So far, such devices were composed of stations already linked to a display and other peripherals.
The last patent from Apple illustrates how one can transform a MacBook into an iMac. If the concept looks interesting, Apple will have to add a new connector for connecting the notebook to the iMac station, and also develop a system to cool down the components located inside the notebook when being "docked" into the iMac.
