Apple, alongside its new all-in-one iMacs, has unveiled some anorexic and stylish keyboards.
The new keyboards have been completely redesigned and put on a starvation diet so that what you end up with is a sliver of anodized aluminium with low-profile keys that Apple claims, “provide a crisp, responsive feel”. The keyboard measures just 0.33in at the front edge.
It also comes with a number of Mac-specific function keys for altering screen brightness, volume, eject, play/pause, fast-forward and rewind, Exposé, and Dashboard. There are two spare USB 2.0 ports for connecting other USB peripherals.
It costs £29 here. There’s also a wireless Bluetooth version for £49. Jump now for a slinky side profile shot. -Martin Lynch

Second Expansion For World Of Warcraft Confirmed August 8, 2007

Stories have been leaked in recent weeks but now it’s official: the new expansion pack for the ridiculously successful World of Warcraft [9 million wannabe heroes and counting] is Wrath of the Lich King.
The trailer is above. Based in the area of Northrend, from Warcraft III, it will centre around King Arthas Menethil, who as many gamers familiar with the Warcraft series, sort of fell to the Dark Side.
The expansion raises the level cap to 80, up from 70, and will open a new part of the map – Northrend - with more than its fair share of icy locations. There’ll also be siege engines and destructible buildings, not to mention many of the enemies from the Warcraft III game. And when you’re finished bloodletting, you can boogie on down with some new dance moves.
Players will also get a shot at mastering the powers of a Death Night – the first Hero class in WoW. No launch date has been given for the new expansion but next year is likely. Until then, keep hacking away with the first expansion, The Burning Crusade. Visit the Lich King site here.-Martin Lynch
