Apple Updates All !

The highlight of this update, the mouse ! Mighty no longer, the mouse is now Magic ! Yes, you read it right, the Magic Mouse ! Its the world's first mouse with multi touch capabilities, and touted to be the best mouse ever made by Apple in years ! Well, take a look at the Magic already :D You obviously can't tell one side from the other :S


There has been a multitude of updates on the Apple website, here's a summary to make it easy for you guys !

Magic Mouse
Mouse with multi touch abilities !
  • Connects over Bluetooth
  • Compatible only with the iMacs it ships with, for now
  • Gets its own Preference Pane
This one can be yours for $69, pricey for a mouse, but that's what Apple thinks you need to pay to do some 'Magic' !





Polycarbonate 13" MacBook
Now unibody, just like its aluminum cousins 
  • LED Backlit Display
  • Unibody enclosure, non user-serviceable battery
  • Upto 7 hours of battery life
  • 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
  • DDR3 RAM (Upto 4GB)
  • Unified audio in/out jack
Still priced at $999, this one's a steal dea, but there's a small catch, the Apple Remote doesn't work with this baby now !




Mac Mini
Now, there's an option for making it a server, with an additional hard disk
  • Choice between a 2.26/2.53/2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
  • NVIDIA GeForce 9400M with 256MB shared memory
  • DDR3 RAM (Upto 4GB)
Starting at $599, this is the cheapest legit Mac you can buy, too bad Apple says BYODKM


 
iMac
New options of either a 21.5" or a 27" iMac
The only Mac that ships with the Magic Mouse out-of-the-box
  • 21.5" & 27" Models: 3.06/3.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
  • 27" Model: 2.66 GHz Core i5 or 2.8 GHz Core i7 Processor
  • DDR3 RAM (Upto 16GB)
  • 16:9 Full HD LED Backlit screen
  • Choice of NVIDIA or ATI graphics
Starts at $1199, goes all the way upto a whopping $4000 for a fully pimped out version of the 27" iMac ! Outrageous right ? That's Apple for you guys :)
