I LOVE MY APPLE!

Nuffnang, Apple, I know you two love me a lot! You don't have to ask me if I love you or not, cz you know the answer liao hor. I lube you la~



So so, gib me the iPod Touch okay???? Can la hor?? I very very in love with you guys la. So gib me okay?

Okay, that sounded very gay. Ho Ho!!

Nowadays everyone gila-gila crazy-crazy over the new iPhone 3G that is gonna be released to 22 countries on the 11th of July (New Zealand gonna be the first country to get iPhone 3G) and the rest of the MANY MANY countries later this year. But if you guys want to see the unveiling of the iPhone 3G, see here. Steve Jobs, founder and CEO of Apple presenting himself wei! GO GO SEE!

VERY CHIO RIGHT? The other day I saw Helga, an ASEAN Merit holder I think, holding one of the first generation one, straight away I kept looking at her direction. I dunno why. Hopefully she don't think i'm attracted to her! Okay, that was half-kidding ar!

BUT BUT! I'm not as in love with iPod and iPhones lei, although still very very la.

WHAT I REALLY LOVE, is the MACBOOK SERIES!

Smallest in size is MacBook Air

Second in size, just slightly thicker is, the MacBook.



Then the best, most powerful one and yet still retaining the size is the MacBook Pro.

Ho Ho!

Hmm, some Ah Beng might ask,

"Eh! You need sooo MANY diffelent kind of MacBooks for what you tiao me?!?!?! I tot people normally have 1 enough oledi????"

I tell you Chao Ah Beng, different laptop got different function geh!

I start with MacBook Air la hor.

MacBook Air how thin you tell me? 0.16 to 0.76 inch thin! Then inside of the MacBook Air got what you tell me? Got special reduced sized Intel Core 2 Duo microprocessor plus a lot a lot of stuffs lo. You can use it as a laptop ( I mean this is what laptop are made for wat).

You can also use it as a Chick Magnet lei. Chio Bu walk pass you and then OMG! they come sit on your lap just to have a glance at your laptop. Nice lei??

But what if hor, on that day, your girlfriend/boyfriend having birthday party, got one very very big cake! And everybody bring one laptop go there la, cz it's like a high-tech party, AND THEN, it's time to cut the cake. THEN OMG! No knife! The cake shop fellow forget to give you the plastic knife. Then your parents all keep knife away, scared you all emo commit suicide. How to cut the cake?!?!?!

Then ngam ngam you got MacBook Air right? Use it to cut cake la!!!

Don't understand what i'm saying ar?


This guy is Rahul Sood, founder of Voodoo and a Hp CTO, so short-short call him Hp executive la. He use MacBook Air to cut his birthday cake ya know. I no bluff you wan. He from other competitor company somemore lei.

But you know what's the best thing? The MacBook Air still functions like brand new even after the cake cutting.

Imagine la, instead of using MacBook Air, you go use say, erm, Dell XPS, also small form factor kind of laptop go slice cake and see!

YOUR CAKE BECOME LIKE THAT!

Smashed beyond recognition.

Ah Beng: Wah! Laptop with hand-gesture recognition trackpad, using Core 2 Duo then somemore so light and so thin, somemore thin until can cut cake ar??? I want!

Thomas: Of course you want la! Who don't want?? Not only can cut cake ar, can cut German's bread also lei!


Know why the left guy got blood? MacBook Air thin until too sharp already. Cut his own skin. =.="

Next up, MacBook Pro!

This one totally different function one. This one, like the name suggest, is for pros and high-end users. Why? You see ar, you need to be able to differentiate what's a PC and what's a Mac. A PC is a computer that runs Microsoft Windows. A Mac is a computer that is designed by Apple to run Mac OS X.

Then, not too long ago, PC World (Yes, the very very very FAMOUS magazine for PC buying guides and solutions!) tested a few laptops, including MacBook Pro that runs Windows Vista under Boot Camp and you know what they say? MacBook Pro is the FASTEST LAPTOP THEY'VE EVER TESTED! Just a few months ago only. That's why it's for all those demanding people lo.

MacBook Under Boot Camp

See how powderful it is??

Ah Beng: Then what about MacBook lei??

Thomas: Be patient~ Very fast coming liao okay?

You know la, cool looking stuff and amazing laptops are things that thieves will always wanna steal right? And moreover, MacBook is one of the hottest selling laptops for students in both Colleges and Universities due to it's performance : stability : reliability : price ratio. In fact, every year, Apple will hold offers for students going back or enrolling into a new school, called the Back to School promotion and it only makes the price of a MacBook line-up cheaper, plus a free iPod!

Then if your precious laptop with all your assignments and private information inside kena steal how? You want to get it back and catch the thief right? See, only MacBooks (actually all MacBook line-ups can do it, but MacBooks most popular among students wat) can do this stunt!

But for this thing to take off, MacBook must tag team with MobileMe (previously known as .Mac) la. This is team work one. YOU CAN CATCH THIEF WITH MACBOOK AND MOBILEME!

"$%#@ WHAT THE HIAO! LAPTOP CAN CATCH THIEF?!?!? LAPTOP GOT LEG AR?!? YOU SIAO OR NOT?!?! I THINK YOU BETTER GO BACK IMH LA!"

Trust me la. I bluff you for what?? This story, last month only! May 11th.

There is a girl, an Apple Store employee in New York host a party in her apartment. And then, few weeks later, her electronics including her MacBook got stolen. She then of course very sad la right?

The girl sad sad sad for a few days. Because she subscribe to .Mac account that time right, her laptop will always be connected to the Apple provided service if it got connected to internet wat. Anytime anywhere, she can access her laptop if it's switched on la.

So, one fine day, a few days after her apartment kena invade by burglars, her friend saw her MacBook online!! Then, she activated the Back to My Mac screen sharing feature available in .Mac (now in MobileMe) and she was able to use it to view what the burglars were doing with her laptop, as if she's standing right in front of the laptop and also use the laptop as if she's using it there and then.

THEN YOU KNOW WHAT SHE DO?? You know right, MacBook line-ups got built-in webcam called the iSight right?

She activated Photo Booth (A feature in Mac OS X Leopard) via the screen-sharing function, take a picture of the burglar and send it to the police! BUSTED! So even if the thief steal your laptop, the thief cannot use it to go online. Sad for them right?

See, who say you cannot catch a thief with MacBook??????

Actually, I already like the MacBook line-ups all the way back since early 2006 la. When Apple announced MacBooks as replacements from PowerBooks.

Steve Jobs was presenting it on one of Apple Special Event and I watched the entire thing!!

Gosh, got so high of blogging I forgot why am I blogging.

I currently own an iPod Nano the 3rd Generation (and I love it! Although the screen is a tid bit small, and cannot touch here touch there) and next up, next year most probably, i'm gonna go get a MacBook!

OH YA!

Almost all of these extremely chio pictures are taken from http://store.apple.com/sg/ . Go and have a look lei!! They have more products than this lo! You haven't seen GarageBand yet!! What are you waiting for??
