Apple have just announced a bunch of upgraded MacBooks along with a new Retina Display 15" MacBook Pro The screen sounds amazing. They have dropped glare by 75%, increased resolution so that 5MP are visible on screen, added USB 3, installed 2 Thunderbolt ports, dropped Firewire, dropped the Superdrive, slimmed it to the thickness of the MacBook Air and shaved its weight to less than the 13" MacBook Pro They have also announced a $35 Thunderbolt to Firewire adapter, announced iOS 6 and given a lot of info on the new version of Mountain Lion including it's $20 upgrade price

Downloading ML Preview 4 as I type. The servers are stalled. The new MBP seems to be SSD X2. So it should fly. Full integration with iWork and iCloud is what I have been waiting for, I have been emulating it with a workaround but it will be nice to have it for real. Dictation is supposed to work, even with MS Office, we will see... iOS5 will bring Apple Maps instead of Google Maps. Total integration with Siri: The kids ask "How much further?" Siri will reply with the remaining journey time. (The blurb says.) It's looking good. Notifications works very well. A Dual outlet Thunderbolt to Firewire adaptor would be the icing on the cake. According to the UK Apple site the UK upgrade to Mountian Lion will be £13.99. AFAIK The upgrade will only work from Lion, no jumping from Snow Leopard.

Not bad quite impressed think I have do a lot of learning stop Mmmm... Will take a while I think. Any tips Doug? You seem to be the expert at this stuff. What microphone do you use with a desktop like a Mac mini?
