Apple Inc. touched up its line of laptop computers Tuesday with a minimal nod to the economic turmoil that might push consumers to be more frugal this holiday shopping season.
Apple lowered its least expensive laptop, the existing version of the entry-level MacBook, by $100 to $999.
But in the updated versions of its MacBook and MacBook Pro machines, Apple focused mainly on adding features, including thinner laptop casings and a “multitouch” track pad, which, like the iPhone, understands gestures for spinning and zooming.
