For many people, such as myself, their Macbook Pro® has become a staple. It
is an integral part of my own personal life. The moment I wake up, for
example, I check the time on my Mac. I then use
the various widgets I have presented to plan out
my day using the iCal tool, check the weather,
determine the caloric content I will be eating
throughout the day, check for tra c on the road
amongst many many other things. The portable
laptop computer along with the assistance of
WiFi has revolutionized how we humans interact
with the universe around us. Through various
technological advancements, the Laptop computer has become more
accessible to the entire world by using low weight aluminum allowing the
price of these computers to drop. Although Apple® has kept their prices
relatively high, from a marketing perspective they aim to (and have
succeeded in my personal opinion) to present themselves as the best.
