Slim Aluminum MacBooks Coming Soon from Apple
Submitted by Cleve Nettles on Fri, 09/21/2007 - 10:02.
We have received some information about some upcoming Apple laptops - we think they are MacBooks but aren't 100 percent sure they aren't the fabled Pro slim line.
What we know:
- Black aluminum and silver aluminum (like MacBook Pros) have been seen
- They are considerably slimmer than current MacBook and even a bit more than MacBook Pros
- The screen reaches much closer to the edges than current MacBooks but is the same size as current MacBooks - indicating a somewhat smaller footprint
- The keyboards resemble Apple's new Bluetooth Keyboard
- There is something strange about the touchpad (more on this to come)
- They are set to be priced extremely aggressively
- While they are dense, overall they are lighter than the current MacBooks
If it's as alleged, a MacBook model then the price point should remain the same meaning relatively affordable, if it'in between the MacBook and MacBook Pro then it can still be very attractive depending on the configuration, the maximum RAM and the video memory, so on and so forth.
New OS X, Leopard is limping to come out in October after being pushed back by the iPhone, that can be 10 or 41 days from now. If new hardware comes out with Leopard, that would be very interesting. And I have to give it to SPJ for keep cranking out price gouging worthy consumer obsessed items day in and day out.
MacBook is a bad dream for me, I have surrended and gave up

Are you sure it's a MacBook, or some older version like iBook?
ReplyDeleteI don't understand why people solve problem by yelling? I totally not buy into that. But that's another story...
If you are sure it's a MacBook or iBook, you can go to Apple's support area, and do a search to get connected. If it's MacBook, wifi comes standard, it should be able to detect your Wifi access point. Or bring it back to his school and ask for instructions. I have an iBook years ago, and it's not that bad. You can do it.
