Apple CEO: No pressure from Microsoft, PC industry is chasing MacBook Air


Apple deviated from its standard closed-door approach to unveiling new software earlier this week and gave a number of media outlets early access to an upcoming version of its OS X operating system for Macs.

Apple iTV, iPhone 5 and new MacBook Air cast a ‘dark shadow over CES’


This year’s Consumer Electronics Show had record attendance and a number of terrific products unveiled during various CES press conferences should make waves when they hit the market later this year.
