Apple‘s big product launch dominated the news and your opinions at Mashable this week.
The iPad mini‘s Tuesday arrival came with a few surprises. in addition to the mini tablet, Apple also launched a new generation of the iPad, a 13-inch Retina MacBook Pro and an ultra-slim iMac.
Apple wasn’t the only company releasing new tech this week. Microsoft officially debuted Windows 8, its latest operating system, shortly after Apple’s big announcement. The new OS will work with Microsoft’s other hot new item, the Surface tablet. Mashable was on the scene at both events, and we had an engaging discussion with readers about the merits and drawbacks of this new technology; the conversation continued in the comments on our site.
As consumers said hello to new Apple and Microsoft products, they waved goodbye to the last presidential debate on Monday. Boca Raton signalled the beginning of the end of the Romney vs. Obama showdown. Although the campaigns will be ending, we’ll always remember the binders, Big Birds and bayonets.
