My New Toy

    Well it is pretty amusing that I'm my using my new toy to type this blog. I just recently got a new macbook pro 13 inch with thunderbolt capabilities. Thunderbolt is a new port for only the macbooks and is the fastest port in any computer, period. It also has many things to be excited about.

    For one, this computer is super good at what it does. It is super fast in every little thing it has. (not to mention that this model is not the fastest hardware).  When it comes to the internet, bam! It is already to go and running. Whenever I want to download a game or something, it downloads right to my desktop in a shortcut form. That leads to my next cool thing. Macbooks give an awesome user friendly feeling. Everything you need is right at your finger tips and with a touch or a click, you get what you want with extremely fast loading time.

       The app store from Apple is the biggest and most used app store in the world. Over 10 billion apps have been downloaded from the app store. That is saying something. The next cool gadget is the track pad. Now, i think this is one of the coolest inventions on a laptop. People don't know exactly how to use it and get angry so they just quit. When you find out all the tricks it has up its sleeve, you'll be begging for more. I'll give a few examples. When your browsing safari and you have a lot of windows up, simply run four fingers down the track pad and all the windows will show in a smaller size for you to see at all what your looking at in safari. This is a simple and effective way to switch pages or even delete the pages you don't want. Now, your probably thinking oh I can do this all with tabs. But, what you don't know is is that the macbook uses its tab functionality with the "command" button. With a press of the command button and the letter T, you got yourself a new page. Cool? Wrong. Very cool.
      The last cool thing I'm going to be talking about is iMovie and GarageBand.With iMovie you can create movies with little videos you've made with a camcorder or your iPod and iPhone. In a nut shell, you can add them all together and add whatever music you like to it. Also, creating title themes to it make this free app oh so much enjoyable. Garageband is the next awesome app. With this you can create music from scratch, edit songs to fit your personal needs, do all the instruments you want however you want them, and most importantly, share it all. With all this said you probably need a very cool picture to see what I mean. Here you go.
