Apple Releases More Notebookage

Today Apple released a new lineup of MacBooks and MacBook Pros. I have to say, these machines are slick. They appear to be screaming fast as well, sporting DDR3 1066MHz RAM. I am kind of disappointed, though. I was kind of expecting Apple to introduce a more affordable MacBook to the market, perhaps like $800, especially with the way that the economy is right now. Oh well, I’m still happy with my “Merom” MacBook Pro, especially when it’s just for surfing and video nowadays.

Additionally, a long overdue update to the Cinema Display line was introduced today. Though, with Dell’s monitors becoming so affordable and still looking spectacular, I see no reason to buy one other than the Apple look. Unfortunately the new display only accepts DisplayPort now, unless you have an adapter. It is nice to see a manufacturer pushing DisplayPort, though.
