Apple Day Again

October 19, 2005 · 3 comments

Apple released updated PowerBooks, PowerMacs, and a new photo editing program called Aperture.

You can read the article at MacWorld.

First on the list are refreshed PowerBook models. Moody announced two new systems — 15-inch and 17-inch PowerBooks. The 15-inch model now features a screen with 1440 x 900 resolution, the same as the previous generation 17-inch model. The 17-inch model now features a 1680 x 1050 pixel display — the same resolution as Apple’s 20-inch Cinema Display

I’m really pleased Apple updated the PowerBooks, as I will be considering purchashing one in a year or two. However, by then, they may get another update. I was also hoping that since Apple recently released the Mighty Mouse, they might get a hint and include a two button trackpad in the PowerBook/iBook lineup but I guess not.

I’m also very happy that they updated the PowerBooks! I just bought my very first Mac – 15″ PB. I will finally make the switch.

Congrats! Now that I’ve switched over with a Mac Mini, I feel ready to take the dive into a full-fledged Mac later on with a PB.

I don’t think Apple will ever include two-button mousepads on the PB line simply for the reason that you’re already able to perform a *right-click* via a tap. Glad to see the bumped rez in the PB line as well. I’m gonna hold out though for the Intel-switch. If they are as hot as evryone is speculating it may be hard to dump your (still new) ‘05 PB PPC. Time will tell….. ‘06 will definately be something for Apple/Mac users.
