Apple's response to bad news

If you've been looking at google news recently, you'll see that apple have failed to make jailbreaking illegal. Now I assume this will lead to many more people jailbraking, and eventually, it'll become more sophisticated until the point were jailbraking may prove essential for many. Sadly, apple will probably put some form of 'black spot' on your phone, so that you won't be able to update (ever). And perhaps banning you from the app store 'shivers'. In response to all this disappointment on apple's part, they decided to flex their muscles and release a new iMac, new mac pro, and a shiny 27 inch cinema display. YUM :) the 21 inch iMac now features an i3, and all processors are either quad core, or 'virtually quad core'. While this doesn't improve standard program speed, it dramatically improves multitasking, perhaps up to 2x. There's also a 3.6ghz i5 option on the 21 inch. sorry, but that's epic. There's also quicker RAM (1333mhz) and an ATI graphics card as standard.
Next up, the mac pro... There's now 4,6,8, and 12 core options, all working on that faster RAM I mentioned, and the option to have spruced up graphics card. also note a 1ghz card is now available for the iMac :-D. The last update is the 27 inch cinema display, which runs at 1440p and it's 16:9. The most impressive part about this sharp looking screen is the subwoofer built in, and a total output of 50 watts. Watt ever way you put it, that's loud. Overall, they were some sweet updates. o, and there's also a magic trackpad, which is basically a MacBook trackpad but bigger. I might buy it to film a YouTube vid. So look out for updates to my YouTube channel. P.S. I'm eagerly awaiting my free bumper.
