Apple Macbook Pro

Apple Macbook Pro

 

 

Apple's line of Macbook Pros have recently been setting the standard in mobile computing with its sleek, elegant, stylish, and sophisticated design and the powerful processors and specifications. A recently released Notebook is Apple's Macbook Pro MC37ILL/A that exemplifies power, convenience, and laptops in the best form.

 

Apple MacBook Pro MC371LL/A is 15.4-inch laptop equipped with a 2.4GHz Intel Core i5 dual-core Processor, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 320 GB Hard Drive, and an Intel HD Graphics and NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M with automatic graphics switching and 256 MB dedicated graphics memory. This baby's really sweet what with its switchable graphics coupled with the core i5's turbo boost capability and the ample 4GB of memory that is perfect for games and demanding applications. Its 15.4 inch LED-Backlit display that is sure to produce crisp and detailed images and graphics will surely impress your eyes. It even has a Built-in iSight camera, 8x DVD/CD SuperDrive, and Wi-Fi wireless networking to add to its already impressive list of functions and capabilities. The laptop runs on Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard Operating System which is good enough for almost anything you might want to throw at it. 

 

The Apple MacBook Pro MC371LL/A has already become a bestselling laptop on Amazon and even more are being enticed to it right now. No qualms or complaints though, I think the Apple did a great job making this laptop and it deserves all the hype and attention it's currently getting.  Just to give all you guys an idea though, what I absolutely love about this laptop is its very fast Intel Core i5 processor and the NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M with automatic graphics switching and 256 MB dedicated graphics memory.

Sun Mountain Sports, a sports product supplier based on Missoula - Montana recently got a sudden hype of media coverage and thousands of searches across the web. Sadly though, this is not because their products are finally getting more recognized. The searches are brought about by a recent happening that posed quite the disappointment towards the brand. 

 

The rain gear that was provided by Sun Mountain for  the 2010 US Ryder Cup was a complete failure. This has been the verdict of many as the gears they provided didn't seem to work. Some team member's got their gears damaged because the stuff provided seemingly had holes in them resulting to further damage and annoyance to the members. It was an utter and complete failure. In the end, teams had to discard and literally trash the faulty Sun Mountain rain gear suits and buy replacement actually working rain suits. 

 

The company officials made a public apology and said that their ‘experts’ are working to resolve the issue. Sun Mountain Sports’ officials also said that they’ve been in the business of catering to sports enthusiasts for over two decades.


I personally do not have something against sun mountain sports but honestly, I think they might want to change their methods or their name after this shameful incident. Let's all just hope them the best and that they develop their sports gears to actually cater to sports enthusiasts.

Texas Ou Game 2010 : Oklahoma got a very impressive 28-20 win. Pitted against the Texas Longhorns, they were able to dominate the first half of the game with their solid defenses that stayed throughout the game. Texas though was able to keep the game very tight and within striking distance as a 60 yard run was completed by DJ Monroe and they held Oklahoma with only two touchdowns at the half. All through out the game though, Oklahoma played calmly and tenaciously putting up great defenses and maintaining a constant threat to the opponent with their great offensive executions. 

 

Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops believes winning the Big 12 Conference is much more important than beating Texas. In an interview Stoops said "This is a special game to win. It is always a big deal."  "It put us at 5-0 and a conference victory."

 

Oklahoma sure is a team to beat right now as they aim for the top and they asserted their dominance for everyone to see. Learning to run with the lead, instead of nursing it, will be the major factor for the remainder of the season for Ou while Texas will have to do better and rely on big plays and turnovers if they want to continue further. 

 

Oklahoma will have two difficult match ups for the coming month as they will have to face Missouri and Texas A&M. Texas on the other hand will be meeting Nebraska on the 16th.

Facebook is a very popular social media networking site nowadays that millions, maybe even billions of people enjoy. Most are not aware however on how this social media giant came to be. 

Now, the story behind the creation of Facebook has been filmed with its story penned by Ben Mezrich in the book titled ‘The accidental Billionaires’. The Film 'The Social Network’ is an adaptation of the book and tackles the secrets and lies on how Facebook have been created.

Face book addicts are generally not familiar with the name of Eduardo Saverin as the co-founder of the network. Saverin had provided the money for the launch and served as a business manager for the company.

He was born in Brazil on the 22nd of May 1984 and moved to the US in the mid 1990s. Eduardo Saverin is currently listed on Forbes 400 at the 356th place. His net worth is estimated around $1.15 billions. He currently owns about 5% of Facebook together with Mark Zuckerberg and others.

Most people would be working their ass off until the age of 40 just to provide for their family but this guy Eduardo's already well off thanks to his skills and wits. He's obviously a great guy who was at the right place at the right time that's why he's now a millionaire.
