05.10.2009
Dutch-based Google AdSense ads appear to have prematurely revealed new Apple iMacs, entry level white MacBooks and Mac minis.

The ads, now mostly removed from Google searches, appeared over the weekend, highlighted by , the website suggesting "thinner iMacs, redesigned polycarbonate MacBooks with thinner, sleeker enclosures, and speed-bumped Mac minis," could be revealed sooner than later, even as early as this month.

Italian, German, Austrian and Belgium Google searches also reportedly produced similar results.

The ads revealed a "faster and more affordable than ever," Mac mini "from only €499," a €100 saving on the current cheapest price.

Alongside the Mac mini, the white MacBook was listed as "thinner, lighter and stronger," according to some translations - "Dunner, lichter en krachtiger! Gratis bezorging. Bestel vandaag" on the Belgium version of Google - while the new iMac was described as "ultra thin," starting from €1099.

Last month AppleInsider that a new slimmer lighter entry-level white MacBook would also include Apple's "cutting-edge internal battery technology" with Cnet adding the addition of new much-improved batteries could give up to 10 hours of battery life from one charge.
