After a period of downtime this morning, the Apple Store is now back and, as expected, it now carries refreshed, faster iMac and Mac Pro computers, as well as a completely new product called the Magic Trackpad.

The $69 Magic Trackpad is designed to work with your Mac desktop computer and uses the same multi-touch technology as the MacBook Pro. “[It] supports a full set of gestures, giving you a whole new way to control and interact with what’s on your screen,” Apple describes on its product page. It is intended to be used either in place of a mouse or together with one via Bluetooth.

The iMac line has been thoroughly updated with Intel’s Core i3, Core i5 and Core i7 processors and new graphics, and starts at $1,199. While that’s on the expensive side, it also includes 2.93 GHz quad-core CPU, and ATI Radeon HD 5750 graphics.

Video pros will probably be excited to see the new Mac Pros, the strongest of which now sports a drool-inducing 12 cores (that’s 24 virtual cores if you count Intel’s hyper-threading technology). If you’re so inclined, you can bump up your Mac Pro with a 512 GB SSD, as well as ATI Radeon HD 5870 with 1GB of memory. If you have to ask, the price starts at $4,999.

Finally, there’s the new IPS-based 27-inch LED Cinema Display with a 2560 x 1440 pixel resolution, a perfect companion for the 27” iMac if you need more screen real estate. It comes with built-in MagSafe charging, iSight camera, speakers, and three USB ports

New 27-inch LED Cinema Display looks tempting!

Charlie sitting with Grace’s friend Sophie after watching Grace and Sophie performing at the Kings Theatre on Sunday, hence the makeup (on Sophie)! Also, got to point out that Charlie looks wrecked because he was up at 4am! Little sod!   Posted via email from Matt Takhar’s posterous
