Tim Cook: Click here for new MacBooks ... Or not.

Tim Cook tried to unveil a new Mac laptop Tuesday — but ended up tweeting out a dead link instead.

Apple's CEO intended to show off the thinnest MacBook yet, but the link failed to direct to Apple's MacBook website, sending tweeters into a tailspin.


Cook's been busy running the wealthiest company in the world, which of late has faced off against the FBI, minted new iPhones and iPads, and planned a forthcoming developers conference.

The Apple Inc. logo is displayed outside as attendees line up to enter the Moscone Center before the start of the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in San Francisco.

Meanwhile, the highly anticipated 13-inch device has garnered buzz of its own, boasting a 12-inch Retina display, a new body color, a faster processor, extra battery life and more RAM.

Still, it appears even a "highly responsive full-size keyboard" and "Force Touch trackpad," like those on the new Mac, can't prevent the occasional typo. Cook's tweet has since been deleted and replaced with a new, working link.
