MacBook 2.16 GHz White

That’s all the pictures I have for now. Next I will start looking at my iPod, and take some pictures of it.

I have had my MacBook for exactly two weeks now and I love it. It’s the best computer I have ever used. It does everything I want it to do, it meets all of my needs, and it the perfect computer for me.

I switched from PC to Mac two weeks now, and I’m never going back to a PC! If I need windows, which I might in the future, I can install it on my Mac. I can run windows and Mac OS on my computer, so a Mac is all that I will ever need.

All Ready for Back to School!

We finally got all of our back to school shopping all done yesterday. Everything is done and ready for back to school. I packed up and I’m ready for tomorrow morning.

I Packed:

  • 6 Binders
  • Pens
  • Pencils
  • Paper
  • Small Storage Boxes for my Locker
  • Calculator
  • Lock
  • Artist’s Pencils and Coloured Pencils for Art Class
  • Rulers
  • A few blank Notebooks
  • Locker Shelves
  • Locker Organizers
  • Tape
  • Memory Stick (For transfering files from school to home- because I don’t really want to bring my laptop to School)
  • Sticky Notes
  • That’s about all I packed for now. When I go to school, they should tell me within the first few weeks if you are missing something, or need something extra.

    I also have my New 2.16 GHz MacBook, which will make schoolwork and homework a LOT easier. My PC is good, but it is a few years old, and it is getting quite slow. I’m glad I have my Mac. I have not installed all of the software I want on my Mac Yet, but I do have Office for Mac, which is a Must Have for school.

    Along with my Mac I got a new HP Photosmart Printer + Copier + Scanner, which will be good for school to, for printing out presentations and posters. I have an HP Lazer Jet that I got in February, Which is great for printing out Text and reports, but not pictures, and it’s just a black and white printer.

    For now, I seem all set for tomorrow!

    Second Day with my MacBook

    I have had my Shiny new MacBook for two days now, and I love it. I had orginally said it was the base model, but I actually have an upgraded model now, and I’m glad I do. It’s the 2.16 GHz in White. I really like the computer, and it has a very attractive design.

    I am still getting used to the Mac, and I’m still installing software on it. Unfortunately, I can’t install some of the web design software I use becuase it is not compatible with Macs, and it is too old. Sometime, I’m going to get a Mac Version of the Adobe Dreamweaver software, along with Photoshop for mac and some other software.

    For now, I will use my PC to do design work. My Mac will be used for design work when I get the right software for it. I do have a lot more to install, I currently have Office 2004 Student Edition installed on my Mac.

    My Mac will be perfect for ALL School Work, Homework and presentations. It’s soooo much faster compared to my PC, which I really like.

    I am so happy I got the Mac. I still have some learning to do, but It’s excellent so far!

    I want to post some reviews on the Mac within the next few weeks. It’s back to school on Tuesday, and I will probably be quite busy. I will actually be looking forward to homework and presentations, because I’ll do it on my New Mac. I also got a new HP colour printer to go with my new system. I have a newer HP lazer printer aswell. I am all ready for back to school!

    That’s about all for tonight!

    Tomorrow, we are going to continue with the Back to school Shopping, so I will have EVERYTHING for Tuesday.

    I am using my Mac to write this, too, I like the Safari Browser a lot too.

    One thing that I already found with the Mac is that it does get really hot. I found that SMC Fan Control made a huge difference. The temperature dropped a lot after I increased the fan speed from 1,800 rpms to 6,200 rpms. I only put it to the max speed if it gets really hot though, just to save battery power, if I don’t have it plugged in.

    That’s about all for tonight!

    Got My MacBook!

    I am sooo happy!! I finally got my shiny new MacBook! It’s late, so I have to go. I will be writing more about my new laptop and my first experience using it. That’s all for now!!

    Just 4 More Days!

    I can’t wait to get my New MacBook! I just have to wait four or maybe five more days until it comes in!!

    Getting a MacBook!!!!

    As I mentioned in my last post, I’m getting a MacBook. It’s coming sometime (probably closer to the end of the week) Next week! I can hardly wait! I’ve been wanting a MacBook for so long now, and its getting closer and closer!

    The Mac I chose was a more basic model, but from what I’ve heard about them, every mac is really good. I’m Getting the MacBook Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz in White. I saw a model at the store, and it look really nice. I love everything about the MacBook.

    I have used a mac before, and I like it a lot more than windows. I have a desktop PC, and I wanted a laptop. I like the Mac’s system, so I decided to go with the MacBook. I looked at soooo many different laptops for months now, and I think the MacBook is the right one for me.

    I have heard a lot of positive comments from Mac and MacBook users. I like the way Macs run, and I really love the way the MacBook looks, too.

    I also mentioned in my last post that I was going to get an iPod. I did. I bought a brand new Silver 2GB iPod nano. I’m not going to start using it until I get my Mac.

    I am so looking forward to the End of the Week next week!!

    Summer ‘07 coming to an end

    I can’t believe it’s already heading into late August! It’s almost back to school! I am kind of looking forward to it, and kind of not, but I know it will be a good year. I am busy working on a big web project for one of my clients. That is why I have not been posting lately. I am also going to be working EXREMELY hard on it this week, and for a little bit next week because I have to have the project completed by the 31st.

    Everything else is going well, sometime this week in the evening after I’m finished working on my web project for the day, I’m going to go back to school shopping. I need to buy the usual school supplies. I don’t think it will take too long.

    Before or a little bit after I start school, I’m getting a new computer! I have decided on a White 13″ MacBook! I am really looking forward to getting it! My computer I have is still perfectly good, but I really want a laptop, so that’s what I’m getting. I’m still going to use my current computer for some things, including some design work. School work, reports and other things will probably be done on my Mac. I’m also going to get an iPod too, something that I’ve been meaning to get for a long time now.
