Apple has released new iMacs, with a new interior (up to 2.8Ghz Core 2 Duo) as well as new exterior (thinner, with a black back, as well as black 'eyeliner' around the screen), including a new keyboard, during a press event in Cupertino today. Apple also released new version of its iLife and iWork suites. iLife has seen updates on all its applications, while iWork has also received a new spreadsheet application called Numbers. Update: The Mac Mini has been updated too.

But why do $200 cameras sell more than SLRs? Is it because all the features on the big SLRs scare people is it because the $200 camera is much smaller, easier to carry and costs $200?
All of the above, I'm sure. I think the middle ground would be the cheaper, smaller, lower-megapixel SLR's like the Nikon D40. I don't think this would sway the serious photographer that also totes around a cheaper point-and-shoot, but it's a step in the right direction for others.
As for manual transmissions, that's just a strange culture thing. I don't for a second believe that Europeans are in any way smarter or more technical than Americans, and here automatics are incredibly rare.
I'm not sure what it is either. Manuals are more fun, cheaper, easier to fix/maintain, and generally give better performance and fuel economy. But they take a bit of practice and additional effort. I guess we're just lazier
Anyway, back on topic, I'd really like to try out one of those new keyboards. I think it would be great for my Cube, which is currently using an old white G5 keyboard that doesn't have the greatest feel.

I recently bought a $200 digital camera, not because I'm too stupid to use an SLR (I've used manual film SLRs all my life), but because $200 was what I had to spend on a digital camera.
