What’s in Your...?
By all accounts I have a very simple bag, but it con-
tains something very precious, my MacBook. I don’t
carry around a lot of stuff, but what I need to take
with me all the time, fits well in my bag.

MacBook
The main attraction of the Mac-
Book is obviously its size. It has
a 13.3-inch display which has
enough resolution for most things
(but is limited for tasks such as
design), a Core2Duo processor
of up to 2.2GHz, RAM up to 4GB,
MacBook Pro and a hard drive up to 250GB.
The MacBook is a lot of power

which is plenty for most things you’d want
to do. It can also take up to 2GB RAM and
160GB hard drive as well as a SuperDrive.
Its limitation lies in that it’s very hard to up-
grade, and it has integrated Intel graphics,
so don’t expect to play the latest 3D games
on a mini. Price: from AED2699.
iMac
The ultimate home desktop computer, the iMac
is the all-in-one that packs a punch. You can
get a 20 or 24-inch screen, up to 3.06GHz, up
to 4GB of RAM, and 1TB of hard drive. The
iMac’s selling point is the integrated package,
which also happens to look really awesome.
Price: from AED6199.

iPod Classic
This is the iPod we have known
and loved for so many years,
hence the name Classic. With a
large display, plenty of storage
space, this is still the king of the
iPods even though many new
models have been released.
Comes in versions of 80GB
and 160GB and is available in

timate fashion accessory. With a wonderfully
crisp display it can play video and the small
size means you can slip it into your pocket
and take it anywhere. Comes in 4GB and 8GB
versions in five different colors. Price: from
AED649.
iPod Shuffle
This miniscule iPod is different from the other iPods not
just in terms of size and price but in the fact that it has no
display. The idea is that you listen to music on the go and
it shuffles through the songs. There’s even an handy fea-
ture in iTunes that will always put a different combination of
songs on it when you sync. Price: AED329.
Apple TV
Although it’s not an iPod we present it here as it seems Apple
feels the Apple TV is in the same family. With 40GB or 160GB
storage capacity, the Apple TV can take all your music, pod-
casts, and movies. The multimedia can be synchronized from
one iTunes library on a Mac or PC, or streamed from up to five
other computers. It’s the easiest way to get your multimedia
content onto a TV. Price: from AED1399.
