Apple introduces new Macbooks in Malaysia

A new series of MacBooks were officially announced today. I believe many are keeping an eye on the news of Apple's new notebooks and already know its technology very well, where all the technical information can be easily found on Apple's official site. Therefore, what most people would like to know is how much these things will cost in Malaysian Ringgit, as well as when they will be seen on rack.

The details for retail price are as follows :-
The lowest end Macbook comes with a 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, a 160GB HDD and the NVIDIA GeForce 9400M integrated graphics solution costs RM4,799;
The next model comes with a processor upgrade (2.4GHz), greater storage space (250GB) and an illuminated keyboard costs RM5,899;
The MacBook Pro line comes with a 2.4GHz processor, 2GB DDR3 SDRAM, 250GB HDD and GeForce 9600M 256MB graphics costs RM7,199;
The following model which has a 2.53GHz processor, 4GB DDR3 SDRAM, 320GB HDD and GeForce 9600M 512MB costs RM8,999;
Lastly, the MacBook Air comes with a 1.6GHz processor and a 120GB SATA HDD costs RM6,599; and
the other variant comes with a 1.86GHz processor and a 128GB SSD costs RM8,999.

However, the new MacBooks are not put on sale yet despite the announcement. Apple Malaysia is still working on it and it is said to aim the release in early November.
