New Mac Pro, iMac and Mac Mini
Last tuesday Apple updated their Mac Pro, iMac and Mac mini machines. Although I really hoped for a price drop for the Mac mini but it's a due update. The Mac mini hasn't been updated since August 2007. I expect and hope the iMac and Mac mini to arrive to Apple resellers in Saudi Arabia very soon.

Apple plans Arabic iPod, OS X
Its about time they pay some attention to this market. Now if they only sell Apple products at reasonable prices! (1600SR=426$ for a 299$ iPod 5G 30GB is too much!).
Apple plans Arabic iPod, OS X: "Arabic iPod users are looking forward to the day when Apple finally manages to release an Arabic iPod."

I bought an iBook recently and I believe I need to talk about it. Apple Middle East needs to get its act together.
