<title>NEW Macbook Pro Review</title>
<link>http://www.computersight.com/Computers/NEW-Macbook-Pro-Review.351329</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;The new macbook pro is made from one piece of aluminum, making the whole laptop look more appealing. The whole construction feels firmer and more solid than its predecessor. The old clasp lock has been put to rest and replaced with a new magnetic grip making for a more pleasing close. My only gripe about the new macbook's design is that it seems to interfere with the wi fi signal. It could just be me but the aluminum casing seems to lessen its wi fi reach.</p>
<p>&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The new touch pad deserves its own paragraph because it&amp;rsquo;s so important. Instead of the traditional touchpad and button the entire thing is a touch pad. Apple had gotten rid of the button and made the whole touch pad one giant button. The user can click anywhere on the pad, but the higher you click the more resistance. The touchpad also has finger gestures such as scroll down/up and the like.</p>
<p>&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The macbook pro is as fast as ever and provides for a very comfortable internet browsing experience. Pages load fast, the screen is bright and vibrant, videos look gorgeous, and really what else could you ask for?</p>
<p>&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Bottom line the new macbook pro is a great laptop. Anyone in the market for a new computer should consider the macbook pro. It is a great computer.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FComputers%2FNEW-Macbook-Pro-Review.351329"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FComputers%2FNEW-Macbook-Pro-Review.351329" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>10 New Features of the Apple Macbook</title>
<link>http://www.computersight.com/Hardware/10-New-Features-of-the-Apple-Macbook.305807</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>Good news for Mac Lovers. Apple introduced new MacBook with many new features that change the way we use computers. Here are the reasons why you should buy the new MacBook.</p>
<h3>Eco-Friendly</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/10/21/0_3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Apple MacBook is made from recyclable glass and aluminum. It is all free from PVC and BFR and all forms of bromine and chlorine.</p>
<h3>LED-Backlit Technology</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/10/21/1_3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Only few computers have this advanced technology with CCFL displays. They use mercury to create a backlight and arsenic to prevent irregularities in the glass. But the new Apple MacBook has LED-backlit display that is both mercury and arsenic free which consumes 30% less power than a CCFL backlit display.</p>
<h3>Unibody Enclosure</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/10/21/2_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Till now all notebooks are designed by assembling multiple pieces to create a single enclosure, but after the inclusion of all the necessary parts, they add size, weight, complexity and more opportunities for failure. New MacBook is carved from a single block of aluminum. It is durable because of its unibody design.</p>
<h3>Multi-Touch Trackpad</h3>
<p>There is no separate button for performing functions. With the innovative multi-touch glass trackpad you can perform all functions with your fingers. You can scroll up and down a page with two fingers; flip through photo libraries with three fingers and swipe up or down to access Expos&amp;eacute; modes and left or right to switch between open applications with four fingers. Pinch to zoom in and out. You can right click with two fingers.</p>
<h3>Illuminated Keyboard</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/10/21/3_2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The illuminated keyboard enable you type even in the low-light areas. It is now on the 2.4GHz model.</p>
<h3>Beautiful Glassy Screen</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/10/21/4_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>New MacBook is beautiful with aluminum body with a glass overlay that stretches to the edge. This has a bright and glorious full screen. It looks polished and refined.</p>
<h3>Easy to Carry</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/10/21/5_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>As the entire enclosure is thinner and lighter with its aluminum unibody, it is easy to carry.</p>
<h3>Superfast Processor and Memory</h3>
<p>With Intel Core 2 Duo processor running at a speed up to 2.4GHz you can run more applications at a time. The 1066MHz DDR3 memory enables you to manipulate large and complex files and keep more applications open at once.</p>
<h3>Hard Drive and Ports</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/10/21/6_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>You can load movies, photos and documents with a hard drive up to 320GB. You can also opt for a 128 GB solid-state drive which has no moving parts for enhanced durability. The super drive is eight times faster and burns everything you watch, listen to or create onto DVDS. You can find two USB ports to connect a wide variety of peripherals; a Mini Display port is fit for the apple LED cinema display and the MagSafe Power port gives a trip-proof connection to safeguard your system and valuable data. You can use the Kensington lock slot to protect your MacBook, battery and hard drive.</p>
<h3>Excellent Graphics</h3>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/2008/10/21/7_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>The NVDIA GEForce 9400M in MacBook can deliver five times faster graphics performance with which you can view your movies and photos with rich colors. It also helps to flip through your music library with Cover Flow or use the Dashboard. You can experience high-performance graphics ideal for playing 3D games or watching video.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FHardware%2F10-New-Features-of-the-Apple-Macbook.305807"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FHardware%2F10-New-Features-of-the-Apple-Macbook.305807" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>Buying a Mac</title>
<link>http://www.computersight.com/Computers/Buying-a-Mac.133328</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>I have not tried a MacBook Pro before and I think now is the time to buy a brand new MacBook Pro. Since I do many of my office works on a computer, it is to my advantage to own a MacBook Pro so that I can take it with me to wherever I want either on my vacation or traveling far away from home.</p>
<p>After a few researches about laptops on the internet and at the Apple Stores, I found out the current MacBook Pro has exceptional processor speed and the widescreen life like high definition crisp display are two of the most attractive qualities Mac Book Pro has to offer in today's laptop market. Needless to mention the enormous storage spaces, flexibility of watching movies or listening to music. It also comes with a great bundle of useful softwares along with user friendly interfaces. The light and thin external appearances are second to none compare to other laptop computers. The package includes long lasting rechargeable battery with an adapter.</p>
<p>At last but not least the prices are very reasonable and that is why I think the next laptop I buy will be the Apple MacBook Pro.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FComputers%2FBuying-a-Mac.133328"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FComputers%2FBuying-a-Mac.133328" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>Barely Legally Hacking Your Ipod Touch or Iphone in Five Easy Steps</title>
<link>http://www.computersight.com/Computers/Barely-Legally-Hacking-Your-iPod-Touch-or-iPhone-Into-a-Fully-Capable-Apple-Computer-in-Five-Easy-Steps.90560</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[								<p>I wrote this how-to guide to show you how to do just that, without needing to be able to program, or being afraid of breaking your device with a mistake. This is not all that difficult to do and is called jail-breaking. Here I show you how in five easy steps.</p>
 
<p>Note: While any downloads are taking place on your device do not let the screen fall asleep! I will post additions in the comments of this article, if you have anything to add post your additions too, if you want to update your firmware, after you have jailbroken your device, make sure that you restore it first or it could get locked.</p>
 <ol> 
<li> 
<h3>Downgrade Your Firmware</h3>
 </li>
 
<p>Decide on the software version you want to do this with. The earlier the version the more applications you can get for your device. Next, find the download for this version. I suggest 1.1.1. You can download the file here for the iPod, and here for the iPhone. After it is done downloading connect your iPod to your computer and open iTunes. Find your iPod in iTunes and then press down the Option key on a Mac and click update. You can also press the Shift key if you are on a windows computer. At this point, a dialog box opens up and you will need to select the file you downloaded earlier. Once your iPod is done downgrading it will restart. Congratulations it is now running firmware version 1.1.1.</p>
 
<li> 
<h3>Jailbreaking Your iPod</h3>
 </li>
 
<p>Now that your iPod is running the correct firmware you can jailbreak it! This part, while the most significant, is the easiest. Simply take your iPod and open Safari, in the address bar type in www.jailbreakme.com. Once your iPod loads the page scroll all the way down and click "Install AppSnapp." In about ten seconds it will be done installing and you will have a new icon on your home screen called "Installer." Your device is now jailbroken and you can get the applications you want.</p>
 
<li> 
<h3>Getting More Sources (Optional/Recommended)</h3>
 </li>
 
<p>This step is for people who want to do more than make their iPod an iPhone, it's for people who want their iPod/iPhone to be a combined Computer, iPod, Phone, PSP, Gameboy, NES, Playstation, virtual book reader and more. It also allows users to completely customize their device including all images and default text on it. It will allow you to change the order of the buttons on your home screen and put up to fifteen buttons into the Home Dock. Your applications come from programmer's lists called Sources. To add almost every single source of applications into your Installer's database you will only need to manually add one source. To do this open installer on your iPod and click "Sources" on the bottom right. Once your sources are opened click "edit" in the top right corner and then "add" in the bottom left.</p>
 
<p>Once you do this a dialog box should pop up. Into the box enter the following: http://blazeco.info/blaze.xml. After you do this your iPod should began a database update sequence which could take between three and ten minutes. When it is done updating your sources database your sources should automatically refresh. If they don't, close and reenter your installer and they will (this will also take a short while every time it happens, do not think it is frozen or will affect the rest of your device). You should now have a lot of sources and so many more options of what to install. Now go to sources and click edit then scroll down your list and delete any sources that are in foreign languages. Now after one last refresh your done! Congratulations!</p>
 
<li> 
<h3>Installing Applications</h3>
 </li>
 
<p>This is the section where you download the actual applications onto your device. They will appear as new icons on your home screen. Open up your installer and go to the "Install" section (second button from the left at the bottom), here you should see a long list of folders each of which contain applications inside. Simply choose the applications you want and then install them. If they have installed correctly, the installer should revert to the screen with many scrollable folders of options. Install up-to five or ten apps and then click your home button. Your screen should jumble up the buttons for a second and then refresh. Once it refreshes your new icons should appear. After you have done this you may return to the installer and install more programs, as many as you like! Once your screen cannot hold any more icons it will simply make a new page for them, to scroll these pages simply slide your finger to either side on your device's home screen. You have now learned how to add applications and I will list some I recommend below.</p>
 
<p>•	iPhone 1.1.1 Apps for iPod<br /><br />If you are on an iPod and not an iPhone this will give you a list of all the iPhone programs and, if you install them, you will get them on your iPod.</p>
 
<p>•	Customize<br /><br />Customize your device full description below.</p>
 
<p>•	Aqwoah Keyboard (1.1.1)<br /><br />This install gives your default virtual keyboard a set of beautiful 3d rounded keys with a brushed steel background. It is much easier to use, as there is more distinction.</p>
 
<p>•	Gaming System Emulators<br /><br />Download these emulators for things like GBA or NES to have your device be able to act like one of these and have many pre-included games and two player games such as Mario, Zelda, and more.</p>
 
<p>•	Tap Tap Revolution<br /><br />This is the equivalent of Guitar Hero for your device. If you actually want the flames and other affects of the actual game then download: TTR, the Guitar Hero III theme for it, and songs you like. You will then be ready to play it GHIII style.</p>
 
<p>•	iPhysics</p>
 
<p>This is well known to be one of the most advanced programs for the iPod/iPhone it is a game where you play by a set of physics laws and you control it with many actions of your fingers. You can draw any shape or line, joins, hooks, rotating anchors and also control some games with your tilt sensor. Also a full featured pinball game is available for it in which the handles and spring are controlled by your fingers. (If you can't find it add <a href="http://www.iphone.r4m0n.net/" target="_blank">iPhone Hacking and Rambling</a> to your sources, if it blinks turn on compatibility mode in the options).</p>
 
<p>•	Social Websites<br /><br />Adds icons for social websites such as Facebook and Myspace to your home screen.</p>
 
<p>•	BSD Subsystem<br /><br />Makes your device run better and be more compatible.</p>
 
<p>•	Team Wiki<br /><br />Finds and makes follow along lyrics with all your songs.</p>
 
<p>•	Games<br /><br />There are hundreds of games for your device available even two-player games like air hockey.</p>
 
<p>There are literally thousands of options make your own list of favorites!</p>
 
<li> 
<h3>Customizing (Optional/Recommended)</h3>
 </li>
 
<p>To customize your device you will need to open installer and install an application called "Customize." Once you have done this you will need to also download all of the designer image sets for customize (big files might take a while). Once you have downloaded both of these open up customize in your home screen. Here you can change how your dock background looks, your icon display order, and any of the default images for your device and the apps on it simply by clicking what you want to customize (from the slider, to the icons to the battery picture, to your music buttons, AND ANY IMAGE at all) and then selecting an option from the list presented. You can also customize iPhone default sounds by clicking "System Sounds". You may also customize default text by going to SpringBoard Strings" and selecting what you want to change (anything from the "Slide to Unlock" to the "System Messages"). All of these things can be changed with my favorite program; "Customize". Your iPod is now customize and has many amazing programs on it.</p>
 
<p>You have successfully jailbroken your iPod Touch or iPhone! Enjoy your brand new device and show it off to your friends!</p>

<title>MacBook Air</title>
<link>http://www.computersight.com/Computers/MacBook-Air.83940</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>The new installment to the Mac family is finally here, the MacBook Air, and yes it is really thin.  This laptop sure does live up to its name, MacBook Air is thin like air itself. This laptop is the world's thinnest laptop to be created.  This notebook has many great qualities that other companies can't copy, and put into such a small space.  There is  an illuminated keyboard for use in dark areas such as a plane or in the car.  So far this is the best thing that Mac has ever created.</p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/02/14/113622_0.jpg" alt="" /></p>
 
<p>This notebook is not heavy at all.  In fact it only weighs three pounds, and is only 0.76 cm thick. In spite of its skinny size it has a screen that is 12.8 inches wide, and 13.3 inches diagonal. That is really big for a laptop that is so thin.  Many people think that because it's so thin that it won't have a USB port or a audio port, and many other things, well it does, but the company limited the port to 1 USB port, but the laptop still has one.</p>
 
<p>Since this laptop has a resolution of 1280 by 800 the screen gives you lush, vibrant, and rich colors at full brightness, which makes looking at the screen even more fun.  As for the keyboard it is full-size with crisp keys just like the ones on the other MacBooks. Although Mac took this laptop to a new level, the keyboard has an installed backlight key illumination, making it easier to work in those dark areas. Also Mac has added a bigger multi-touch trackpad, for those hard to do jobs such as moving the scroll bar without dragging the scrollbar.</p>
<p><img src="http://images.stanzapub.com/readers/computersight/2008/02/14/113622_1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
 
<p>There are many great features on the Macbook Air.  The first thing is that there is a flip down hatch that reveals all the ports.  Just close the hatch and it feels like they were never there.  As I mentioned before, the multi-touch trackpad, has multiple uses, such as swiping, rotating or zooming in and zooming out, and advancing through an album.  The new touch system in the iPhone and the iPod are now in the Macbook Air as well. Also, like the older Macbooks this notebook has a built in camera, so you can chat with and see your loved ones that are far away.  The built in camera can be used for many other applications, such as making a presentation.</p>
 
<p>As for those people who love to download stuff, well good news.  Macbook Air comes with a 2GB of RAM built in which isn't a lot, but adequate.  The good news is that you have an option to upgrade to a 64 GB Solid-State RAM.  So if you like downloading stuff, then this is the way to go.</p>
 
<p>There are many great features about the new family member, Macbook Air. So if you're planning to buy a laptop then consider this as one of your choices. It will make a great gift for anyone.  If you want to bring some one joy in your family then get the thinnest laptop ever made, the Macbook Air.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FComputers%2FMacBook-Air.83940"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FComputers%2FMacBook-Air.83940" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>Mac Help</title>
<link>http://www.computersight.com/Operating-Systems/Mac-OS/Mac-Help.78344</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>This is for all the computer people out there who have switched from a windows to the mac osx leopard. The mac osx leapard has many of the same features as the windows vista/xp. Most people over look lots of the features because they are still frusturated with finding out how to even use them. The macintosh leapard program is built for easy use for kids expecially. It even has music recording software built in.</p>
 
<p><a href="http://www.apple.com/ilife/garageband/" target="_blank"> GarageBand </a>is a revolutionary tool that lets you record your own music or even have it make some of the music and you play along with it. The new mac also has microphone ports so If your a singer you can practice and record your voice. GarageBand is also built so you can plug in your guitar or bass guitar and record band material. Since the mac has a built in microphone you can also just sing into your computer.</p>
 
<p><a href="http://www.apple.com/ilife/idvd/ " target="_blank">IDvd</a> is mac's new burning program which is compatible with All kinds of disks. Out of all of Macintoshes built in programs idvd is probably the most confusing because you can burn three types of dvds/cds. Video dvds, music dvds and picture dvds. If you are burning a dvd you can customize almost everything about it, you can even make the option menu for the movie and picture you want. Cd burning if very easily  usable because al you do is click drag the music into the idvd screen, same with movie or picture content. IDvd also will let you burn whatever you make with GarageBand.</p>
 
<p>Photo booth is the program that is hooked up the the built in web cam. Photo booth lets you take pictures and make movies. It also has a whole bunch of effects that are really interesting to fool around with. You can even make your face go inverted Photo booth is relatively simple no hard thing that can cross my mind.</p>
 
<p>The last program need explanation is <a href="/www.download.com/MSN-for-Mac-OS-X/3640-2143_4-10203624.html " target="_blank">MSN </a>for mac. Macintosh has an MSN program that is downloadable <a href="http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/email_chat/messengerformac.html" target="_blank">there</a>.</p>
 
<p>Its very simple to install. Good luck.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FOperating-Systems%2FMac-OS%2FMac-Help.78344"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.computersight.com%2FOperating-Systems%2FMac-OS%2FMac-Help.78344" border="0"/></a>]]></description>
