<p>Apple Enhances .Mac</p>
<p>New Web Gallery & 10GB Online Storage</p>
<p>CUPERTINO, California--August 7, 2007--Apple today announced significant<br />
enhancements to its .Mac online service, highlighted by the debut of .Mac<br />
Web Gallery, a new feature for sharing photos and movies on the Internet.<br />
..Mac Web Gallery lets members easily share photos and movies directly from<br />
iLife '08 with anyone on a Mac, PC or iPhone in stunning quality. In<br />
addition, .Mac Web Gallery visitors can download high quality images for<br />
printing and even contribute photos using a standard web browser or email.<br />
Other new .Mac features include a tenfold increase in .Mac storage to 10GB,<br />
support for personal domains for iWeb websites and enhancements to .Mac<br />
Mail.</p>
<p>".Mac Web Gallery is an awesome way to share photos and movies on the<br />
Internet with friends and family," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "You can<br />
share your favorite photos and movies with anyone on a Mac, PC or iPhone,<br />
and they can turn them into high-quality prints as well as contribute<br />
photos to your site using a web browser or email."</p>
<p>With iPhoto '08, .Mac members can easily create a .Mac Web Gallery with<br />
just a few clicks and choose whether they want to make their albums<br />
available to everyone or limit access to specific people, allow visitors to<br />
download high-quality images suitable for making up to 16x20-inch prints,<br />
and even allow friends and family to contribute photos. .Mac Web Gallery<br />
offers an amazing online photo experience that feels more like a desktop<br />
application than a web page. Visitors will have the same rich viewing<br />
experience whether they are using a Mac or PC and can experience .Mac Web<br />
Gallery photo albums in their choice of views, including mosaic, grid,<br />
slideshow or carousel. Users can skim through albums just like they do in<br />
iPhoto by simply moving their mouse over an album on the web page to see<br />
the photos inside. Friends and family can easily contribute to a .Mac Web<br />
Gallery by clicking the upload button from their browser or sending an<br />
email. iPhoto '08 automatically stays in sync and downloads contributed<br />
photos directly to the .Mac member's iPhoto library. .Mac Web Gallery is<br />
also designed to work great with iPhone, enabling users to view albums or<br />
simply snap a picture, choose an album and post it to their .Mac Web<br />
Gallery.</p>
<p>With iMovie '08, .Mac members can easily encode and upload their movies to<br />
their .Mac Web Gallery for viewing in several sizes, with the largest size<br />
offering higher-than-DVD resolution. Visitors can view .Mac Web Gallery<br />
movies on a Mac, PC or iPhone. .Mac members can also choose to make their<br />
movies available for download, so that friends and family can play them<br />
back on their computer, iPod, iPhone or Apple TV.</p>
<p>..Mac members now have 10 times more online storage space for photo and<br />
movie sharing, email, website hosting, exchanging files and backing up<br />
important documents, increasing from 1GB to 10GB for individual members and<br />
from 2GB to 20GB for Family Pack customers. Members can choose to purchase<br />
an additional 10GB of storage. .Mac members can send and receive larger<br />
email attachments up to a maximum size of 20MB and manage unwanted mail<br />
better with improved webmail spam filtering. Using iWeb '08, .Mac members<br />
can embed dynamic web widgets like Google Maps, Google AdSense, .Mac Web<br />
Gallery albums or HTML snippets in their .Mac website and host their<br />
websites at their own personal domain.</p>
<p>Pricing & Availability</p>
<p>..Mac is available as a subscription-based service for $99.95 (US) per year<br />
for individuals and $179.95 (US) for a Family Pack which includes one<br />
master account and four sub accounts. Customers save $30 (US) on either the<br />
individual subscription or the Family Pack when purchased with a new<br />
Macintosh and anyone can sign up for a free, 60-day .Mac trial at<br />
www.mac.com.* Individuals can optionally purchase an additional 10GB of<br />
storage for $49.95 (US) annually.</p>
<p>..Mac requires a Macintosh computer with Mac OS X v10.3.9 or v10.4.3 or<br />
later and 256MB of RAM. Internet access requires a compatible ISP; fees may<br />
apply. Broadband Internet connection recommended. Some features require Mac<br />
OS X v10.4 Tiger and iLife '08, available separately.</p>
<p>*The .Mac service is available to persons aged 13 and older. Annual<br />
membership fee and Internet access required. Terms and conditions apply.</p>
<p>Apple ignited the personal computer revolution in the 1970s with the Apple<br />
II and reinvented the personal computer in the 1980s with the Macintosh.<br />
Today, Apple continues to lead the industry in innovation with its<br />
award-winning computers, OS X operating system and iLife and professional<br />
applications. Apple is also spearheading the digital media revolution with<br />
its iPod portable music and video players and iTunes online store, and has<br />
entered the mobile phone market this year with its revolutionary iPhone.</p>
