Default Re: New Macs introduced! New Imac, Mac Mini, 13" Retina Macbook Pro

Apparently they've also upgraded the regular Ipad and it is now the 4th generation Ipad, mainly faster graphics and stuff.


Also, of interest, from what I can see, the new Imac no longer has the option of 2 internal hard drives. Your choice is one traditional, or one flash based, or their hybrid "fusion" drive.

It still has an SD card slot on that back, maybe that could be used somehow.

We'll have to wait and see if OWC opens one up and finds any extra hookups for another hard drive.


Also, regarding the Mac Mini, now the mid-priced non-server $799 model also offers a Quad core I7 (these are the new Ivy bridge processors, I believe), not just the server model.

And, all three Mac Mini models now use the Intel 4000 graphics, so there's not an option for a discrete graphics card (unless I'm misunderstanding this).
