My Mac Gears (Part 1 – Main)

I love mac… and yes, I’m not a windows fan… I idolize Steve Jobs and I love all Apple products.
I’ll be dividing this post into 3: Main Gear, Accessories & Laptop Bags.

Here are my main mac gears:

  • Macbook (I bought this to replace my iBook)
I’ve finally decided to upgrade my iBook last year. The major reason why I did it is because of Bootcamp.

With bootcamp, I can also run windows on my mac! how cool is that? 🙂

It’s just nice to have the best of both worlds. Having both windows os and mac os in a single machine. Only mac can do this!!! 🙂

Though I haven’t been using the windows os on my macbook, i really don’t care about it coz i love Mac OS X!!! but anyhow, the thought of being able to access it on the machine if i need it is already a good enough reason for me.

After 1 year, I decided to upgrade my Hard drive and memory. Upgraded my Hard drive from 80GB to 250GB and memory from 1GB to 2GB.

At the same time, I also upgraded my Mac OS X to Leopard!!! 😀

Just to give you a little history, Macbook was launched 1 month after Macbook Pro was launched. Here is a keynote of the 2006 macworld conference by Steve Jobs for Macbook Pro.

  • Airport Extreme

I already had a wifi router before (linksys) but I decided to switch to airport extreme just because of 2 reasons:
1)It’s made my Apple.
2)It looks prettier.

I know the reasons are not even important. But it gave me happiness and it made me feel proud that I own this gadget 🙂

It does what it promises

-It lets you turn your external drive into a drive where you can share with all the users in your network

-It is extremely easy to setup.

-It also lets you access to a wireless printer. All you have to do is connect your printer into the airport extreme.

I bought this October 2007 and until now, I’m very happy. I might upgrade to a Time Capsule though as I need more space for my hard drive. Let’s see…

  • Apple Mighty Mouse

What I love most about this mouse is the design. It looks so neat and so unique.

It’s not like the normal mouse wherein you’ll see a scroll button and 2 other buttons.

In here, it’s invisible but you can click on it. And it does serve the same purpose. It’s just expensive though.

When I was deciding which mouse to buy, I was thinking of design/cool factor/high price versus normal/cheap. I decided to go for the design and cool factor 😛

I’m still using this until now. I bought this last 2004.
