Within a couple of weeks we can expect new 20" and 24" iMac computers from Apple. Apple Insider
writes these new systems will feature a sleeker keyboard:
Tapping the wizardry of industrial design chief Jonathan Ive and his team, the Cupertino-based Mac maker has reportedly crafted a super-slim external keyboard for the new Macs. It's said to draw upon the aesthetic and feel of the low-profile keyboard which was first integrated with the company's 13-inch MacBook portables in May of 2006.
On its website, Apple explains that MacBooks "features a unique keyboard design that sits flush against the bed for a sleeker, lower profile."
"You’ll also find a firm touch when typing," the company adds. "That ought to make your fingers happy."
