Review – Apple Magic Trackpad
Although it was originally released back in July 2010, I only bought a Magic Trackpad a few days ago. When it was first introduced I really couldn’t see me having any need for one, so what made me change my mind?
How much RAM can I put in my Mac?
That’s the question I just asked over on twitter, prompted by the fact that my 2006 iMac is starting to feel a little sluggish. It already has 3GB RAM installed, which according to Apple is the maximum supported. But sometimes you can install and use more than what is officially supported.
Happy Birthday Mac OS X
Mac OS X is ten years old today, the first of the cats – Cheetah (10.0) was released on the 24th of March 2001. I wish I could say my first experience of OS X was a positive one but it wasn’t. Although I had access to more modern iMacs at college my main machine back then was an old beige G3 desktop.
Should I buy a refurbished Mac from Apple?
Having bought two refurbished Macs myself – a MacBook Pro, and more recently an 11″ MacBook Air I would absolutely recommend anyone in the market for a new Mac to consider it. In both cases the Macs were in perfect condition, no scratches or dents, and my main concern – no dead or stuck pixels. I’ve also read many forum posts from other people who have had the same positive experience.
