Dell is coming out with a 1080p screen, and everyone will be happy to know it’s a touch screen. We are talking a 21.5 inch surface of HD touch awesomeness. And on top of all of that it features a 2MP webcam and microphone. No word on price yet, but wow this looks HOT. To bad I’m only using a netbook right now with a 600p screen.

The embargoes are over, and most of the info is out now. The following is what’s new and coming:

• Unibody low-end MacBook models with the polycarbonate shell — still $999
• Entirely revamped iMac line, including a 27" quad-core powerhouse and optional HDMI inputs to allow using the screens as HDTVs
• Revs to the Mac mini line, including a $999 unit with Mac OS X Server preinstalled
• The ‘Magic Mouse,’ a multiouch wireless mouse that is supposedly going to run for months on 2 batteries (pictured above)

Update: More info up now at Apple.com

The rumor mill is at it again, and they are saying Apple is releasing new stuff today. Redesigned plastic MacBooks, redesigned iMacs, updated Mac Minis (including one that’ll ship with Mac OS X Server), multi touch Magic Mouse, and a new multi-touch track pad gadget for desktop Macs are all on the list for what is supposedly coming out. To add to the fire Apple has taken down the Apple Store for “updating”.

Dell Latitude 2100

Dell has announced a new line of computers meant for the class room. The netbooks come in a range of colors and can be placed on a rack for charging at the end of the day. They have been designed to be extra rugged to withstand the abuse of students in the schools. I’m not sure what these would be used for, I could see colleges renting these to students that can’t afford a proper computer. Schools can buy them for $369 starting sometime this year.

Some extra features include a light on the lid that shows network activity or other things that are programmed to show, this is so teachers can tell if students are goofing off in class. For some extra money schools can order them with touch screens, antimicrobial keyboards, handles, and/or shoulder straps.

1. The Case

Try and find a case like the Macbook Unibody Case on a PC, You can’t! Look at the design and qaulity of the cases you get. They are defiantly top notch in both departments.

2. The Included Software

Don’t even tell me you get programs like iMovie , iPhoto, and Garage Band on a PC. While windows computers have come with Windows Movie Maker for a long time, it doesn’t even come close to iMovie.  And nothing like iPhoto or Garage Band comes with windows either. The ease of use is amazing on all the applications.

3. Less likely to get virus

While it’s not impenetrable, you are less likely to get a virus because of the smaller install base of Mac OSX isn’t a target like Windows is.

4. You can still run windows

Still need windows? Run it along side OSX with a program like Parrels or by using Boot Camp.

5. It’s Extremely User Friendly

Users can sit down and learn how to use it quickly. All the user interfaces are intuitive and easy to follow.
