Review Assignment: Template C

A Macbook Pro personal computer can actually be one of the most important items in a

person’s life, especially when it comes to organizing your personal or business life, and staying

entertained, informed, and connected.

I have owned and used a Macbook Pro for two years, and know firsthand, both from personal

use and research, that not only can it enrich your entire life, it does this with an ease of

operation that is almost idiot proof, while being light, portable, and long lasting.

A Macbook Pro, along with an Internet connection and Apple’s browser Safari to navigate, is

the fastest way for someone to keep up with, and if necessary react to news from anywhere.

In a society that is driven almost exclusively by electronics and automation, it has become a

necessity to understand and be able to maneuver through the Internet, not only as a means of

staying in touch with cultural, newsworthy and important events, but also to organize and

regulate a person’s social needs and agenda.


Apple’s browser, Safari is the easiest and simplest way to fill these needs. Moving and

navigating through the World Wide Web can be complicated and confusing, but with a

Macbook Pro, and Safari browser it is straightforward. The bookmark system it has enables a

person to save and return to any important web site. With the tabs system you can be on ten or

twenty web sites at once, and quickly move from one to another.


For me, and many others, the iTunes music application has become a useful and incredibly

important tool in life. Music is very significant to many of us, resulting in enjoyment,

contentment, and actually regulating, calming, and inspiring our lives. iTunes allows you not

only to collect and organize thousands of songs and recordings, but to take them with you and

listen to them anywhere you go. It also easily lets you burn and make a CD of any music in

your collection so you can share them with anyone.


Almost everyone has personal photos, which can together define and be a record of an entire

life. Some people keep them in drawers, closets, or a large number of bound photo albums.

The Macbook Pro application iPhoto enables a person to not only keep all of the images of

your life together (on your lap), but also to easily copy them to a disc, make a hard copy photo,

and share them with others either on the Internet or with discs and hard copies.


There are many other brands of personal computers besides Apple, but only the Apple has the

unique operating system, OS X, that makes it easiest to use. Apple has many applications

including iTunes and iPhoto built into the computers when they are manufactured. All of the

other personal computers have a Microsoft operating system, which is not nearly as user

friendly as the Apple system, and many important applications need to be added to the

computers after they are purchased. Because of this, the operation of these computers, and the

use of the applications are much more complicated and convoluted. The Apple Macbook Pro

computers, have the applications already so integrated into them that actually using the

computer and its applications easily become almost second nature to any adult consumer who

purchases one.


In the past, many people are put off by the higher price of a Macbook Pro personal computer.

Recently, Apple has released a wonderful 13” version of the Macbook Pro that is only a three

or four hundred dollars more than the Microsoft computers. The difference in graphics

and applications, along with the ease of usability between the two types computers more than

justify the now slight difference in price.


There are other ways and devices that enable people to accomplish these varied needs, but

with a Macbook Pro personal computer, you get an all-in-one way to accomplish many goals.

Most adult consumers, whether they are students, in the workforce, or retired, have a need for

rapid knowledge. It might be to further their education, their business interests, or their

understanding of social and cultural events, but all of these things can make a person better,

smarter, and more successful. Most also need to stay connected and to share with family and

friends, both near and far away. Sharing words, pictures, videos and songs are only some of the

ways that a Macbook Pro can help a person stay closer to their friends and loved ones,

resulting in greater happiness and contentment.

There are many reasons why a Macbook Pro personal computer would be an important item to own for any adult consumer. All of the different things that it can do combine to keep a person organized, entertained, and easily connected to whatever they need to be anywhere in the world.

For one thing, a Macbook Pro, along with an Internet connection and Apple’s browser Safari to navigate, is the fastest way for someone to keep up with, and if necessary react to news from anywhere. Secondly, it allows for instantaneous communication, along with exchange of images and videos, whether for business or personal reasons. Ease and speed, when it comes to acquiring information or staying in touch with business associates, friends, or family, should be important to all.

Every Macbook Pro comes with the applications iTunes and iPhoto. iTunes makes every record, cassette tape, or CD music collection obsolete. It collects, organizes, and plays an almost limitless amount of music and movies. Along with either an iPod, or an iPhone, the collection can be duplicated, put in your pocket, and transported and played anywhere. iPhoto does the same thing for pictures, making libraries of photo albums a thing of the past. With iPhoto, hundreds of thousands of pictures can be organized into virtual albums and sub-albums, and then shared with who ever and sent to wherever a person needs. Almost every adult consumer has a music collection and a photo collection, and the Macbook Pro allows for the simplest and most efficient way keep, transport, and share them.

These reasons, combined with the facts that the Macbook Pro itself it incredibly light, portable, and has a very long lasting battery, make it a great tool for most people.

Review Assignment: Template A

In a society that is driven almost exclusively by electronics and automation, it has

become a necessity to understand and be able to maneuver through the Internet, not only

as a means of staying in touch with cultural, newsworthy and important events, but also

to organize and regulate a person’s social needs and agenda. This boom in the vitality and

legitimacy of the World Wide Web, followed by the boom in employment based on

computer skills, has led to a technologically driven society which places much of its

emphasis on computers in order to help control information, manage schedules, and

basically make the industrial aspect of living a whole lot easier. When it comes to

people’s values, family and friends almost always seems to be what’s most important.

Hopefully, these values lead to a more understanding, loving, and tolerant world.

Unfortunately, for a number of people, these supposed “family values” lead them to a less

tolerant world view, where the most important social issue to them is to control and force

others to feel and act the same way they do. Either way, connecting with and relating to

the people that we like and even love has driven virtually every society since society

began. From thousands of years, people communicated and sought to reach out to one

another in many different ways, but only recently in the last couple of decades has the

personal computer given people the ability to fulfill so many needs with one device.

In the world today, access to relevant information, whether it be news, research,

or what your friends’ plans are for tomorrow, needs to be relatively instantaneous. Any

adult consumer today should be interested in a product that allows them to keep up with

basically anything and everything that goes on in the world, and keep up with it quickly.

Whether you need to know about the logistics of a tsunami in the Philippines, how your

nephew looked and fared in his first kindergarten play, or which party your friends are

going to on Saturday night, there is no better tool for keeping up with such things than the

personal computer, and there is no better personal computer than the Macbook Pro.

There are other ways and devices that enable people to accomplish these varied

needs, but with a Macbook Pro personal computer, you get an all-in-one way to

accomplish many goals. Most adult consumers, whether they are students, in the

workforce, or retired, have a need for rapid knowledge. It might be to further their

education, their business interests, or their understanding of social and cultural events,

but all of these things can make a person better, smarter, and more successful. Most also

need to stay connected and to share with family and friends, both near and far away.

Sharing words, pictures, videos and songs are only some of the ways that a Macbook Pro

can help a person stay closer to their friends and loved ones, resulting in greater

happiness and contentment.
