Touch of Magic
Another first from Apple. Magic Mouse. Apple finally decided to put their state of the art technology into their new mouse. With its new touch sensitive upper shell, the low profile mouse looks like a rounded rectangle from top. The mouse is designed like an aero-dynamic object with its top shell declining towards ground surface and the bottom part inclining the top portion on its sides. With no cords attached, the mouse looks aesthetically appealing and elegant. The bottom of the Magic Mouse consists of: two strips of padding, a laser tracking round shaped window, an on/off switch similar to that of iPods and Apple logo and information label. While the top part contains an elegantly placed Apple logo.
The top Multi-Touch Shell senses gestures and respond to actions such as click, double click, scroll and swipe. Apple uses similar touch technology which is used in their products: iPod, glass trackpad etc.
The low profile design of the mouse is an ergonomically good design.
With reduced profile, it makes more comfortable and natural feel which reduces strain for hand.

imac v5.0!
Leaving the rumors behind, Apple has introduced new iMacs, company's flagship all-in-one computers.
Once again Apple has made things much simpler. The redesigned iMacs follows the basic all-in-one form factor of the previous generation iMacs with the Aluminum + Glass formula.
The basic design changes includes:
With big and beutiful display, the 27inch (16:9 aspect ratio) model is really a breakthrough. with lots of real estate for internal components, leaving the room for air and further expandability. And along with the redesign, Apple introduced new 'Magic Mouse' (wireless), which comes with imac as standard accessory along with apple wireless keyboard. Thus making it a "one cord to play n work" device!
Will share you my experience with imac after getting one for work.

welcome to the world of marvellous designs
A p p l e: it's that simple.
The only company taking design seriously. From the begining, Apple stood for usability, quality, and integrity of their products. And throughout the time line we could see that it has given a lot to the world as a designer. Apple have a great R&D policy, which in turn is the life of the company. The team at Apple, headed by Steve Jobs (CEO) and Jonathan Ive (Senior Vice President, Design) has contributed tremendous design concepts and insights to the world. And producing "world's best" things! It all started in a garage in 1976. With two 'Steves'; Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, the company was like a very personal thing, the endeavor of two young and passionate geeks. Steve Wozniak, a born genius from the beginning, tried to keep everything as simple as possible. While Steve Jobs always looked for the 'next best thing'. Still, Apple's philosophy centers around the notions of simplicity, aesthetic appeal and inventions. The company, came through a dramatic timeline in which, the company even fired it's very own chairman, Steve Jobs! Apple has proven itself as a brand with personality and philosophy.
