Apple unveils the eMac. No, it's not actually just to create a confusingly-named product (eMac vs. emacs, kinda reminds me of PKzip .zip vs. Iomega Zip drives). It's an education-focussed mac, ie. cheap for what you get. Still, US$999 still isn't "cheap" in my book, nor your average poorly-funded school's book either I would imagine. But it's a step in the right direction - certainly it's nice to see a high-profile company creating a product specifically for educational purposes.
