AAPL Stock: 562.29 ( -3.03 )

New site offers Apple product database

Designed in CA launches


An avid Apple fan has launched Designed in California, a new reference site for Apple products. The site features hundreds of Apple product descriptions and timelines for all current offerings, as well as several discontinued Apple product lines. The database stretches back to 1997 product releases, spanning up to the Cupertino-based company's most recent announcements, including the 13-inch widescreen Intel-based MacBook. Visitors can compare any Apple products released since 1997, and the site supports searching by traits -- such as the number of processors or the monitor connection type.

    high-standards?

    I think before you start ragging on MacNN's typos you should learn how and when to hyphenate words.

    Now I understand...

    ...why the comment count oftimes doesn't match the replies. Some get deleted, I guess if they're too vitriolic, and that's a good thing. Thanks to the Mystery Fan who did this new site, a quick glance at it says it's pretty accurate, probably more accurate than my fuzzy memory... Z

    A little incomplete, but

    A good start none the less.

    everymac.com

    Has a nearly-complete reference going all the way back to the original Apple, plus info on other misc. hardware.

    EveryMac.com has been...

    EveryMac.com has been around for eons and is a much more complete database. If this guy was such a fan then he should already know about www.everymac.com. I think he just wants attention. ;-)

    Everymac lacks features

    The presentation of data appears far more completed on Designed in CA. Looking at both sites objectively, even if Everymac does have timeline features, I don't instantly see them. Further, it lacks the component based search. If we want to talk about good databases, as a pure chronological database, Apple-History is awesome.
