Apple 13" MacBook Pro Review

After almost 6 months of having my MacBook Pro, I am delighted to say that I am absolutely loving this computer. In case some of you are not familiar with it's specifications, here are a few highlights of the computer:

• Aluminum unibody.
• 13" Glossy glass screen.
• NVIDIA GeForce 9400m graphics.
• 2.26GHz processor.
• 160GB of hard drive space.
• 2GB of memory (RAM).
• SD card slot.
• Two USB ports.
• FireWire, Ethernet, MiniDisplay, and Audio in/out ports.
• Up to 7 hours of battery power.
• Illuminated keyboard.
• 802.11n Wi-Fi connectivity.
• Bluetooth connectivity.
• Built-in iSight and microphone.
• Multi-touch glass trackpad.

The computer has amazing graphics and can handle many power-hogging games. During game play, the computer does get very hot, but that doesn't slow it down too much. The CPU fan is incredibly fast. I've once seen it go up to 2 or 3 thousand RPMs and still run without a flaw! Audio quality on the MacBook Pro is outstanding! I've NEVER heard such quality come out of a computer so small. The multi-touch trackpad is a breakthrough in computing technology. When I use it, I don' even realize my fingers swiping and scrolling on it. It's natural to me now. On the same day I got the computer, I was using nearly all the multi-touch gestures. The trackpad is smooth and very easy to use. Apple OS X Snow Leopard is a very very very nice operating system. It's almost flawless. Only a few things disappoint me when using it, but these are minor things that I don't like about the OS. Snow Leopard is much better than Vista, though. I'd like to compare OS X to Windows 7 to see which one is better. All in all, I'd like many more people to buy or at least try a Mac computer. They are amazing. The 13" MacBook Pro is a brilliant laptop and I will use it for many years to come. I will never switch back to a PC.

Writing a Story

Many people think that writing a story is a complicated thing to do. It's not as complicated as you'd think. It's actually one of the easiest things to do in life. All one has to do is release their mind and write/type it up. Don't try to appeal to the audience, if you are trying to impress someone or something similar to that. Write something that explains your feelings and is something you're truly proud of. Don't just write what other people want. It's your story, write it how you want to write it because it's coming from your mind, not theirs. One of the hardest things to do while writing a story is getting grammar and spelling right, but there are many ways to correct yourself if you make a mistake. For example, if you want to write a word but you want it to be a bit more complex, one could use "Dictionary" on a Mac, if they have one, to find words similar to the one they are thinking of and to do research on that word to know its precise definition right in a built-in application. The second most hard thing to do while writing a story would be coming up with a title to describe the entire story or just a main point in the story. The story doesn't have to be professional to be loved. True, the better way it's made up, the more attention will get, but the story has be something you love and something that desribes you. If you're not good with grammar, then don't worry about it. Have a friend or family member read over it to find mistakes. Don't let them change it up too much so that it looks like someone else wrote it instead of yourself. I've been writing three books since August. Each time I published one of the stories to my friends, they loved it. The first one got a thumbs ups from everyone. I myself didn't think they were that good, but I was mistaken. I loved their enthusiasm so much that I began to rewrite the stories to make them better. At first, I was just trying to make it look good and get the reader interested. I was also thinking about publishing it to a company and making money, so I was being greedy and thinking making money rather than writing for my passion. After a few weeks of re-writing, I started having fun writing the story. To this day, I am still writing the story and I am still having fun. Who knew that writing could be so much fun? Writing is an expression of the mind and a way to escape from the reality of life. When it comes to writing, there is no limit. Your imagination can fly as high as it wants to.
