Apple bumps up prices on new MacBook range



As the global economy hurtles towards a recession, Apple has introduced a new line of faster, slicker Macintosh laptop computers that are more expensive than their predecessors.
And in a double-whammy blow to Australians, local prices are higher than the US prices converted into Australian dollars, a move likely made by Apple so it can hedge against any fluctuations in the volatile currency.
For the updated MacBook and MacBook Pro machines, Apple gave them some of the high-end features that had been in the MacBook Air, including thinner laptop casings and a "multitouch" track pad, which, like the iPhone, understands gestures for spinning and zooming.
