Who said gloomy economy and recession is not suitable to unveiled new and shiny devices from being released? Either Apple is recession proof, or these model refresh has been planned long ago, I guess this release will please Apple fan out there.
After notebooks, it is now the desktop turn to be refreshed with new looks and more powerful hardware. All models from iMac, Mac Mini and Mac Pro are included on this round refresh. I don’t know if this is cheap, but some model such as iMac 24″ is said cheaper now. But Mac Mini has quite dramatic price increase from RM2199 to RM2999.
Good thing when Apple release new product, it will available immediately for sale at their local online store. They have stock up each store with this latest model even earlier. As you can see, iMac and Mac Mini is ready to shipped in 24hours for any order placed. Isn’t that great?
But be ready to dig deep to your pocket to own one of these beauties.
