Inverted Reality

So I bought a Macbook Pro 13"

I was really impressed with my wife's unibody Macbook 13" so I bought a 13" Macbook Pro. It's nice, the screen is nice, it's fast. Going from an old 15" Macbook Pro, to this, big difference to be honest.

Glad they put firewire back. Really need it for my video camera (Canon HV30)

Looking forward to some productivity!

New Mac's

A few weeks ago Melissa and I purchased a new Macbook from her uni.. a 2.4Ghz Unibody Macbook. It's nice, and it's fast, and it's quicker than her old 1.8Ghz Macbook Pro.

2 weeks later, Apple released new Macbook's again and pulled the Macbook 13" unibody into the "Pro" line.

The update isn't really worth getting upset about, it's nice to know Apple are updating their products regularly.

I'm now using Melissa's Macbook Pro to replace the old G4 Mac Mini I was using, until I decide to buy a brand new Mac. I guess I'll at least wait for Snow Leopard to be released!

Apple will NOT release an ultra portable laptop

I hope that topic grabbed your attention, all I'm reading is "apple are going to release an ultra portable" and... "oooh did you hear that apple have put in a patent for...." and "OMG apple have placed a large order for new LED backlit 13.3" screens from xyz in taiwan". Firstly, you can forget about an "ultra portable" if Apple are buying new LED backlit 13" screens. I mean, c'mon, they're just replacing the macbook screens right? Are the macbook screen's LED backlit? or just the Macbook Pro? hrmmmmmm. They might release a "more portable" Macbook Pro. Something in 13.3" with the power/features of the big bad boy himself? I don't know. The secret is in energy saving, aesthetics and portability, we all know that. I love my MBP, I really do, but it chews through the power like there's no tomorrow. I'd happily ditch the superdrive in the machine for double the power. (i do still only have the first MBP, the core duo i have no doubt that upgrading to a more recent model will give me more battery life). I won't be upgrading anything with a baby on the way! Maybe I need to come up with a "buy me a new macbook" scheme. I'll think of something! heh Stop it with the crap rumors. All in good time my fellow fanboys!
