One of my friends from Stickam owns a website called “EPICPonyz.” He has been plugging our website in all these different ways and not only on his website. So, I offer a HUGE thanks to everyone over at EPICPonyz.com and I highly suggest you check it out.
Ok, so I spent about 15-30 minutes with my brother’s Macbook, and I know Tech is sorta Anay’s terf, but I’m also gonna review what I could use of it.
First Off: If a program is made by Apple and on a Mac and a PC, it’s different on a Mac.
Second: I wasn’t connected to the internet, so I didn’t test any of the online stuff, but I will later.
Let’s begin.
The Design: I love the design of the Macbook. It’s sleek, glossy, rounded, and just all around sexy. The keyboard is one of the best, if not THE best keyboard on a laptop I have ever used. The whole laptop is flattened and so the keys are raised, making the response a lot better when you hit the keys, and make a more satisfying result with hitting any key. The screen is big enough to fit any crap you want, but small enough to take up just the right amount of space. It’s big and it’s bright. Oh, and there’s the built in webcam right above it.
The OS: Leopard is awesome. I am an Apple fanboy, so I know I may be a bit biased, but I love it. It’s sleek, the toolbars help a ton, and for everyone who says it’s slow, that’s just because you have never tried it. It’s almost faster than my PC.
So, in my 15 minutes, I didn’t do much, but I loved it and I hope to spend more time with it in the future.
Yes, my bro is in college so he had to get a laptop. He got a Macbook. I hate him for it. I am going to see if he will let me mess around with it so I can put up a review of it. Oh, and he got a free iPod Touch with it so I will also ask if I can mess around with that. 2 reviews from one man!

Engadget got the inside pics of some secret spy shots of the dream, in it’s T-mobile costume. Without Mr. Blurry cam too! These pics match the FCC specs and leaked videos, but there has been no pictures that match the detail of these. The phone looks good but not excellent. The keyboard looks really nice, but the metal design reminds me of those metal squares on airplaine seats on the arm rests (Random, I know. That comment isn’t negative or positive though). Head on over here to see more pics.
At G4TV.com, John Manalang posted an interesting post on The Feed: What makes some one a Hardcore Gamer?
I highly suggest you check it out.
So, I played the first Max Pyane and when I heard they were gonna make a Max Pyane movie I was worried. The storyline was so cool and I was worried it wouldn’t translate well. Then I heard Mark Wahlberg, my hopes got a bit higher. Then I saw the first trailer. Then I knew it, it was gonna be AWESOME. Now they just released a new trailer for it and it looks even cooler. Here’s hoping the final product is as good! *crosses fingers*
Apple files patents a lot, but this one is one of the most detailed computer ones. Apparently, Apple must be planning on a desktop version of the iphone. This latest patent is 52 pages long, with details about working it and etc. If I were going to bet the future of this item, I would say it’s not coming for a long time But hey, you never know.
P.S: Creepy demonic hands are a regular in Apple’s patents.
Well, Anay and I had the idea to advertise on Revison3 and I sent them an E-Mail. They replied back with a rate card. Umm… we have to hold back on that. The cheapest is $1,600. Diggnation is $16,000. Wow.
I’m at school. I’m not suppost to be here!
