Apple Updated MacBook And MacBook Pro

They are not major upgrades like a new casing or such. But if you are in for a new notebook from Apple you are in luck. As the price stays the same and you got a bump in the specs. So it's still a good thing.

AppleInsider gives a concise briefing on the upgrade. Meanwhile, Apple stock still languishing in the 120 mark. People, buy more iPods, iPhones, MacBooks ....

UPDATE:
You now have to pay $19 for the remote that previously shipped with the MacBook and MacBook Pro. And for the MacBook line, the L2 cache is now 3MB, instead of the 4MB that came with the previous models.

Apple Quietly Upgraded its MacBook

The MacBook now can max out to 4GB of RAM and has a 800 MHZ front size bus. I don't know what they mean but they sure sound great to my ear. Previously the maximum RAM is 2GB and the front side bus is 667MHZ.

User Generated Content

User generated content reaches prime time TV. The new iPod Touch commercial by Nick Haley, an 18 years old English student just got broadcast on ABC's Desperate Housewives. His original Youtube video can be seen above. And the more polished one can be seen on Apple's iTunes page and here (no permalink?), and on TV as well.

Once in a blue moon, you have some brilliant user generated content from YouTube that rivals works from the creative departments of the most established ad agencies. Sometimes when ad agencies grow too big and too established, the creative juice may give way to bureaucracy and red tapes.

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.
