The New Apple Wheel
Lately, there has been big news in the computer business. With Macintosh, it’s there new Apple Macbook Wheel laptop. Apple computers are known for their innovation and creativity. They came out with the iPhone and the iPod which had a huge impact across the world. Apple always tries to make the best laptops, as well as make them slimmer, such as the Macbook Air. Apple has also tried to use that same concept on their home computers as well, like the Mac Mini, Mac Cube, or even the iMac.
Their latest feature, Apple Macbook Wheel, is as thin as the Macbook Air and it doesn’t have a keyboard. You might ask “Is it a touch screen computer like the HP TouchSmart”? The anwser is no. The new Apple Macbook Wheel has a wheel instead of a keyboard, like the wheel you see on the iPod.
I don’t know much about the new laptop except that it’s really thin, costs $2,600, and has a 17” screen. They say in the video that the files are easier to access, which can be good. Especially for people who know little about the Mac. The major concern is probably how to type emails, reports, or documents. On the video, Brian Gilman shows how to access an on-screen keyboard for those occasions. Honestly, in my opinion, they made typing very difficult. But there are some loyal Mac customers out there who will buy this product regardless.
