Apple's not so recent update

Apple recently updated its line of computers.  In what way?  Well, as usual, the Mac Mini got a minor, internal upgrade and a new server edition with dual 500 GB hard drives was introduced.  Then, for the first time since its release in 2006, the MacBook got a redesign to have the new unibody design along with the built-in 7 hour battery in it.  This was an update that was necessary a long time ago.  Finally, in computers, the iMac got an update.  It now sports two new screen sizes which replace the old ones.  They are 21.5 inches and 27 inches.  The 27 inch has a new feature which no Mac has previously supported and that is video input through the Mini Display Port.  The laptops and desktops which have a Mini Display Port can connect to the iMac through a special $20 cable.  This feature will save many people hundreds of dollars especially if they wanted a secondary monitor for their laptop.

Now, that computers are done with, there a few other accessories that got updated.  The first is the new mouse from Apple called as the Magic Mouse.  It is the world’s first multi-touch mouse.  It can support up to two finger gestures and is bluetooth.  Apple still is offering the Mighty Mouse but now being sold under the name of just Apple Mouse.  After reading many reviews, my opinion on the Magic Mouse has changed.  Next, the Apple Remote got an update.  The old plastic one will be sold with the Apple TV still for a while although when bought with a computer, the remote will be the new aluminum one.  The Apple Remote is now made from aluminum and has a unibody design which is almost double the height of the previous version.  This does give it a much better feel in the hand than the old, plastic one did.

This is really old news.....I would say over 3 weeks old. You seem to think that on this website people don't already know this by now. If your going to make a post, please make it something original and new.

I had posted this a long time ago but something must've gone wrong because I didn't see it on the website. So I posted it again. Chill out.

By the way, are you too blind to not see the part where it says not so new???

Are you happy? I just posted a new article.

how old are you? 12, 13? you sound really immature and to be honest I don't want to have a conversation with a 12 year old little boy. when you say words like "chill" and add a few question marks to the end of your sentences, it really shows your age.

Why thank you, good sir. I am quite proud of being 13 years old. Now, I have a request for the real douche like you. Are you proud of discouraging kids. All I'm trying to do is practice my writing skills in a environment that I like. Drum roll please. And now, to piss you off, have you chilled yet???

By the way, emphasis on CHILL and ???

I would just let it go, ignore people who are being rude and move on with life.
