HP and Samsung Have a Lot in Common
Diposting oleh fawaid on Senin, 30 Januari 2012
Quick, guess what HP and Samsung have in common? If you guessed "they copied from Apple", you're absolutely right. Although, to be fair, what tech company hasn't? The photo up top isn't of a MacBook and a cheaper MacBook with a weird trackpad. On the right, the original aluminum beauty: the MacBook. On the left is the HP Envy. Rightly named, because it's quite obvious who HP is envious of.

MacBook Batteries Can be Hacked
Diposting oleh fawaid on Sabtu, 23 Juli 2011
Lion was released this week, and with it came many new security features, making it the most secure version of Mac OS X ever. However, there's one vulnerability that has gone unnoticed for quite some time. The battery within MacBooks have a microprocessor and firmware. Security researcher Charlie Miller found a method of accessing these batteries, as they all use the same default password. Apple could fix this by randomizing passwords, but as news of this vulnerability were only just released, Apple has yet to comment.
With access to the battery, an attacker could theoretically place malware on it that would be next to impossible for the user to remove, they could cause the battery to malfunction, and even possibly overheat.
Now, he's only found that all the batteries use the same password. None of these attacks have been tried, and they may not even be possible. But if they are, be sure to install the next update you see from Apple concerning battery security.

Rumor: Mac OS Lion, New MacBook Airs Coming July 19th
Diposting oleh fawaid on Rabu, 29 Juni 2011
This is just a rumor, however, it's backed by two separate sources. According to these sources, Lion will be released on the 19th of July, alongside of new MacBook Airs. Apple had announced that Lion would ship in July, and the 19th seems like a logical date for the release. MacBook and MacBook Air supplies have been dwindling, which is normally a sign of a refresh. Others have speculated that the MacBook line would be canceled, and the MacBook Air would take its place. I think it's more likely that Apple will price the MacBook Air lower, giving the MacBook a speed boost. While they're priced the same, the MacBook Air couldn't replace the MacBook unless it could match it in speed and storage capacity.
Either way, July is going to be an important month for Apple.

Apple has refused to repair laptops of smokers
Diposting oleh fawaid on Senin, 14 Desember 2009

The edition quotes letters of two readers who have addressed to founder Apple concerning refusal in warranty service. Both appealed to that the smoking theme does not appear in the guarantee agreement in any way.
On smokers the guarantee does not extend
The author of one of letters — the woman by name of Ruth — has received from Jobs's office the answer with sending to agency OSHA specifications on which nicotine is included into the list of dangerous substances. "But OSHA also names" dangerous "a calcium carbonate (is present at bioadditives with calcium), spirit and hydrogen peroxide (are used for washing of wounds), chlorine (which disinfect water), sucrose (is present at foodstuff) and talc (children's powders etc.)...", — the woman resounded.Apple does not repair computers of smokers
As a result of negotiations representative Jobs has offered the proprietress of the computer (which does not smoke — the 21-year-old daughter smokes) additional diagnostics and disk drive repair, if a problem only in the disk drive. Then she has called back and has informed, that the computer contains pitch from a cigarette smoke, and the disk drive and is at all impregnated by nicotinic pitches, so Apple cannot repair the computer (got 2 years ago together with a 3-year-old guarantee) at the expense of the company.«Laptop Hunters» Microsoft became victims of parodists

While within the limits of this campaign, calling to prefer to PC computers Mac, there were three rollers, constructed on one scheme. Microsoft offers users the certain sum for purchase of the laptop of the dream. Those choose the device, proceeding from own requirements. It always appears PC.
As well as in "firm" trailer, Frank comes into shop Apple, but thin MacBook Air for 1700 dollars it appears the expensive, and the vagabond goes to other manufacturers. Finally he chooses PC which takes cover in the street.Campaign Microsoft is the answer to a series of preview trailers Apple "Get a Mac", acting in film already throughout several years. Microsoft asserts, that in in their advertising ordinary people who do not know about the one who removes rollers act in film. Nevertheless, at attentive studying of rollers some observers have called these statements in question. They have identified the professional actress in one of participants of rollers.

Microsoft against Apple in scandalous advertising campaign Windows.
Microsoft "has started" the third preview trailer within the limits of campaign "Laptop Hunters". In a preview trailer mother and the son choose the game laptop in cost no more than 1500 dollars. Thus mother names laptops Apple "popular at this age", meaning the son. IT observers have considered, that thus Microsoft has hinted at "childishness" of production Apple.Plots "Laptop Hunters" are under construction by the same principle. Microsoft selects users for participation in marketing research, for purchase of the laptop within the allocated sum. In all rollers participants come into shop Apple Store, but leave therefrom with empty hands, differently explaining the unwillingness to buy Mac.
Creative have developed in agency Crispin Porter + Bogusky. Manufacture have carried out Smuggler New York.
In an advertising campaign basis the opinion has laid down, that many people are not ready to overpay for a brand and are ready to get the computer with a certain set of characteristics for adequate cost, and computers Windows PC are an optimum combination of the price and quality.
The advertising campaign plot "Laptop Hunters" is under construction that simple people are offered to list necessary requirements to the computer and to define the maximum sum of money for acquisition. Microsoft gives out them the necessary sum and with words "You find it. You keep it" gives 1 day in the order of "hunter" to find the demanded computer for the given sum. The film crew follows lucky beggars on heels, writing down all their arguments in favour of a choice of this or that laptop.
In the first series "Laptop Hunters" the girl by name of Lauren has gone on searches of the laptop not more expensively $1000. Characteristics: the speed, the convenient keyboard, 17 inch monitor.
Round a debut roller scandal at once has burst. As an occasion phrase Lauren has served: "I am not so rich to buy Mac". Apple have seen in this phrase potential threat: the hint on the elite status of computers Apple can frighten off potential buyers. And at once have found in 60 second spot "falseness proofs": Lauren it has appeared the actress (instead of the usual girl as has declared Microsoft), and visit in Apple Store in a roller lasted some seconds.
Microsoft it has not frightened also they have started the second roller. The guy by name of Giampaolo "hunts" for the laptop for $1500. Characteristics: portability, the accumulator, processor power. In this roller Giampaolo speaks about MacBook: "I do not wish to pay for a brand. I wish to pay for the computer".

Gold MacBook
Diposting oleh fawaid on Sabtu, 04 April 2009
The MacBook Air by itself is pretty pricey considering the kind of hardware you get, but Computer Choppers has decided to go the extra mile by producing a 24 karat gold plated version of the MacBook Air instead.
I don't think anyone who purchased this will be using it in public, considering the 5,000$ price tag attached to it along with the dangers of scratches and knocks when carried around. It will still be light though despite all that bling — King Midas would've approved of this back in his day.

Yeah, pretty much sexy. Every element is super sharp, the hidden ports are a thing of beauty, and the backlit keyboard is certainly a nice touch. It's almost silly how light it is, and multitouch is smooth as butter. With the dimensions and curves Apple is playing with, we can almost forgive the lack of removable battery — almost.
