Update: Upgraded MacBook Models

While writing about the upgraded MacBook's from Apple, I forgot to mention the inclusion of the multi-touch controls in the trackpad of the MacBook Pro models. This was originally introduced in the MacBook Air released by Apple earlier this year.

These controls are a handy bunch. You can use your fingers to zoom in and out, rotate pictures and lots of cool stuff. I only wish they had come out with this a year back when I had bought my MACBOOK PRO. But what the hell, I could just buy a new one :).

Also, I was interested in what you guys think about the Macbook Air? I was at the mall the other day and I had a chance to hold this GODLY piece of innovation in my hand. I was 2 inches above the ground when I was admiring it in the Apple Store. But there was one thing which really put me off and by popular criticism was the absence of an optical drive. If that was some how built-in to this model I would have grabbed the thin AIR. :)

Lets try to request Apple for an upgraded AIR model with an optical drive before the economy falls (recession) and there are price inflations everywhere :).
