iMac

Apple unveils the new iMac with Intel Core Duo Processor. Starting at $1299. Shipping now.

At the Macworld Expo in San Francisco, Apple Computer Inc.'s CEO Steve Jobs introduced the new iMac desktop and the new Macbook Pro Intel-based powered computers, months ahead of schedule. Jobs and Intel CEO Paul Otellini unveiled the new jointly designed computers.

The new iMac desktop runs on a new Intel Core Duo processor and clocks in two to three times faster than the old iMac powered by IBM Power PC chips. The MacBook Pro will come in two models - one with a 1.67GHz Intel Core Duo processor, and the other with a 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo processor. It comes with a built-in webcam, a new MagSafe magnetic power connector that detaches easily when someone trips over the power cable, preventing any mishaps. Both models will have "Rosetta", a software application that allows all programs designed for Windows-based personal computers to run on the new Apples.
