Mac Pro

The Mac Pro is a workstation computer manufactured by Apple Inc. The machines are based on an Intel 5400 chipset (with PCI Express architecture) and Xeon microprocessors, but are similar to the Power Mac G5 they replaced in terms of outward appearance and expansion capabilities. They are currently the most powerful desktop computers in the Macintosh lineup.

The Mac Pro was formally announced on August 7, 2006 at WWDC. Along with the Mac Pro, a new Xeon-based Xserve was also announced, completing Apple's transition from the PowerPC to x86 architecture. On January 8, 2008 Apple unveiled the first 3.2 GHz, 8-core Intel Xeon (Harpertown 45nm)-based Mac Pro.

Mac mini

The Mac mini is the smallest desktop computer made by Apple Inc. Two models were released in the U.S. on January 22, 2005 (January 29 worldwide); updated versions were released on July 26, 2005. Models with Intel Core processors were released on February 28, 2006, with slightly revised models introduced on September 6, 2006. On August 7, 2007, new models were released with Intel Core 2 processors with 1.83 or 2.0 GHz speeds.

The mini, which resembles earlier Mini-ITX PC designs, is quite small for a desktop computer: 6.5 inches (16.5 cm) wide, 6.5 inches (16.5 cm) deep, and 2 inches (5.1 cm) tall. It weighs 2.9 pounds (1.31 kg), though it should be noted that the included power brick is over half the size of the system itself.

MacBook

The MacBook is a Macintosh notebook computer by Apple Inc. that replaced the iBook G4 series and the 12" PowerBook G4. It is a part of the MacBook family.
The original MacBook was released on May 16, 2006 and utilised the Intel 945GM chipset and the Intel Core Duo processor.
The latest update to the MacBook line occurred on November 1, 2007. It utilises the Core 2 Duo processor and the GM965 chipset, which runs a 800 MHz front-side bus and Intel's X3100 integrated graphics.

MacBook Pro

The MacBook Pro is a line of Macintosh notebook computers by Apple for the professional market. It makes up the high end of the MacBook family.

First announced on January 10, 2006 at the Macworld Expo by Apple CEO Steve Jobs, the MacBook Pro was immediately available for pre-sale at online Apple Stores worldwide, with deliveries beginning in mid-February 2006. The MacBook Pro was the successor to the 15-inch and 17-inch models of the PowerBook G4 series, and was the first Macintosh laptop to be powered by the Intel Core Duo and Core 2 Duo processors.

The MacBook Pro is currently available in two size configurations: a 15.4-inch model first introduced on January 10, 2006 and last revised on June 5, 2007, and a 17" model first introduced on April 24, 2006 and also last revised on June 5, 2007. Both of these models were given a 2.6 GHz Merom BTO option on November 1, 2007.

Alongside the iMac Core Duo, the MacBook Pro represents Apple's first computers to feature Intel processors instead of PowerPC processors, a transition that completed on August 7, 2006. Since the introduction of the MacBook Pro, other lines have followed, including the introduction of the Intel Core powered Mac mini on 28 February 2006 and the consumer line of laptop computers, the MacBook on 16 May 2006.

iMac

The iMac is an "all-in-one" desktop Macintosh computer designed and built by Apple Inc. It has been a large part of Apple's consumer desktop offerings since its introduction in 1998, and has evolved through three distinct forms. In its original form, the G3, the iMac was egg-shaped with a CRT monitor, mainly enclosed by colored, translucent plastic. The second major revision, the G4, moved to a design of a hemispherical base containing all the main components and an LCD monitor on a freely-moving arm attached to the top of the base. The iMac G5 and the Intel iMac placed all the components immediately behind the monitor, creating a slim design which tilts only up and down on a simple metal base. The current iMac shares the same form as the previous models, but is now thinner and uses aluminum and glass for its case.

The machine enjoys a relatively high profile in popular culture due to its distinctive aesthetics and Apple's successful marketing. The iMac and other Macintosh computers can also be seen in various movies, commercials, and TV shows (both live action and animated).

The iMac has also received considerable critical acclaim, including praise from technology columnist Walt Mossberg as the “Gold Standard of desktop computing"; Forbes Magazine described the original candy-colored line of iMac computers as being an “industry-altering success”.The original 24" Core 2 Duo iMac received CNET's “Must-have desktop” in their 2006 Top 10 Holiday Gift Picks.

iPhone

iPhone is a revolutionary new mobile phone that allows you to make a call by simply tapping a name or number in your address book, a favorites list, or a call log. It also automatically syncs all your contacts from a PC, Mac, or Internet service. And it lets you select and listen to voicemail messages in whatever order you want — just like email.
