Apple Inc., formerly known as Apple Computer, Inc., could be referred to as one of the multinational corporations based in America with focus on manufacturing and designing customer electronics, along with closely-related software program 1tems.
Established on 1st of April,
1976 in Cupertino (California) and having incorporated on 3rd of January, 1977, company was named 'Apple Computer, Inc.' till the year 2006, but had the word 'Computer' dropped on 9th of January, 2007, so that you can have ongoing expansion of company in to marketplace of consumer electronics, apart from conventional focus about the personal computers. Apple can boast of having strength of 20,000 employees all over the world. The time period between 1989 and 1991 was recognized as the 'Golden Age' within the expansion of Apple. Apple went on with the introduction of 'Apple Portable'. It was, however, not accepted by the masses. Later on, Apple went for its advanced version called 'Powerbook 100'. It was then that Apple notebooks started gaining recognition. Apple's reputation started growing and there was no looking back after that. The nineties were a very hard time for apple due to strategic decisions and for numerous client confusion, Apple market share and results plunged to an nearly extinction. It took the return of Steve Jobs and his vision to resuscitate the brand through a series of innovations and complete redesign from the product providing and marketing.
Apple is amongst probably the most renowned words in the personal computer industry. Items manufactured by Apple benefit from an amazing aura and in general are superior to its competition both from the technical and software aspect. The principal reason behind the success of Apple 1tems is that they are innovative, intuitive and various than the rest from the marketplace. Their ranges of desktops, laptops and the well-known iPods have made Apple one from the most trustworthy brands within the electronics marketplace. Lately iPhone has been added to this successful 1tem offering (although some technical issues have shown that even Apple can have some problems with its products).
These days, Apple notebooks are called 'MacBooks'. In the year 2005, apple went on to join hands with Intel Corporation in order to opt for dual core processor technology. Intel 950 media accelerator motherboards were also used for this purpose. These processors are amongst the most sophisticated ones with 2 cores on one chipwhich has translated in less power usage and speed 1mprove.
Apple notebooks are proposed in three lines, they're the MacBook which are the cheapest models designed for everyday users, the MacBook Air for that road warriors and MacBook pro for the heavy users.
The MacBook is equipped with 13.3 -inch TFT display. The frequency of its processor is either 2.1 or 2.4 GHz based on the design you choose. The RAM is either 1 GB or 2 GB. The hard drive room goes from 120 GB to 250 GB; there is a DVD burner, built in camera, wifi, Bluetooth and all the necessary connections. The price goes from $1,099 to $1,499. For a Mac that's as cheap as it gets. If you are used to Windows laptop pricing, that might seem like a great deal of money, but you're purchasing a MAC, that means top 1tem, top software program at a top price. Just suggest to a Mac user to switch to windows laptops and you'll understand why Apple can charge premium pricing, Mac doesn't have clients per say, they have raving fans.Anyhow, this "entry level" laptop gives you plenty of power for most normal personal computer use; If you are a heavy gamers or a heavy database programmer, this laptop computer is probably not for you.
The MacBook Air: like the MacBook, comes with a13.3 -inch TFT show. It has 1.6 GB processor and 2 GB of RAM. The hard drive has a capacity of 80 GB, there's a DVD burner, constructed in camera, wifi, Bluetooth along with a few peripheral connections. Why buy the MacBook Air? Very first, ultra portability; at 3 pounds and a maximum thickness of 0.76 inch, this is currently the thinnest/lightest laptop with a 13.3 display screen. Second, let's face it, it's about style and status. This laptop 1sn't very fast, has limited room and peripherals, but if you're a light user (i.e. email, web surfing...) who wants to make statement about style, look no further, this is your laptop. Price is either $1,799 or $2,598 depending on the design you're looking for.
The MacBook Pro: This laptop computer may be the work horse within the Mac family; it 1ncludes a 15.4 or 17 -inch TFT show. The frequency of its processor is possibly 2.4, 2.5 or 2.6 GHz based on the design you select. The RAM is possibly 2 GB or 4 GB. The hard drive space goes from200 GB to 250 GB; there is a DVD burner, built in camera, wifi, Bluetooth and all the needed connections. The price goes from $1,999 to $2,799. This may be the Mac that you want to use if you're a graphic artist, programmer, gamer or simply like speed, space and large screen.
