Okay, so what's the buzz about huh ? The Apple Special Event held on Oct 22 2012. Now, despite what many people are voicing, I found the event quite intriguing and impressive. I know we didn't see anything majorly new, but whatever was updated was kinda cool. Lets look at each update individually
The OS X Mavericks ( which I can't wait to get by the way ) is impressive with its longer batter life, new link sharing features, they way notifications pop up on the right hand side, which you can reply to instantaneously, the inclusion of iBooks, faster graphics, compressed memory...you can run 6Gb worth of Ram on just 4Gb of it and etc. This great update is available today, and it is free and devices as old as the ones released in 2007 by Apple can upgrade to it.
The MacPro ... Oh my god, there are too many new features. All I can say is that the inclusion of so many tremendously awesome features, on such a small device is plain amazing. It's terrific. It's different. Cost - $2999
Both the Mac Pro 13 ( Haswell) and 15 ( Crystalwell) have been updated to whatever was presumed.
The iPad air. It weighs 1 pound. That's right POUND with no S. It has both the A7 and M7 chip. It is 8x faster CPU and 72x faster graphics than the iPad 1, released 3.5 years ago. The iPad 2, will still be on sale at $399.
The iPad mini has been incorporated with the Retina display and A7 chip mainly. It has better graphics too.
iWork has been completely redesigned with a much more user friendly and appealing interface and is FREE with a purchase of any new iMac/Macbook.
Well, this is the main gist of the keynote. Please vote on our poll on the right hand side so we can survey the overall response of the keynote.
Think Different.
