While working on numerous hard drives, I found an iPhone screenshot of 37Prime.com from October 14, 2008. Well, the screenshot was actually taken on October 18, 2008.
The page featured the new Unibody Aluminum MacBook Pro.
I picked up an Indigo MacBook Neo at an Apple Store earlier today.
Unfortunately the amount of workload I have today at the office prevented me from even unsealing the box. We are switching our backend service on our system, and it took priority.
I opted to get the 512GB Storage with Touch ID. I can’t imagine using any MacBooks without Touch ID these days.
I’ll post more about this MacBook Neo, which I’d probably name “Keanu”.
I installed a 2.5-inch SATA hard drive with Windows 8 Developer Preview on a MacBook. It boots up just fine with the exception with the MacBook trackpad driver. Gotta give Microsoft credit for making Windows 8 compatible with older hardwares such as this MacBook.
Armed with a Nexus One and a MacBook Pro, I was able to bring Internet connection back to the office earlier today. On Thursday, we lost both Internet and phone service. We have contacted our service provider to resolve the issue. Both Internet and phone were still down on Friday. So I used my Nexus One to create Wi-Fi hotspot and connected my MacBook Pro to it. Then I shared the Internet Connection from the Wi-Fi through the Ethernet to the office router. We managed to survive the day.

According to an imaginary source who claimed to be an Apple Executive that is definitely not Phil Schiller, Apple has been exploring the idea of including the option for second hard drive for MacBook Pro instead of the optical drive. In addition to that with slight redesign to the motherboard, MacBook Pro could house total of three hard drives. While details are unclear, Apple might offer MacBook Air style flash-based storage in addition to the 2.5-inch SATA hard drive and the Optical drive.
According to the same source, MacBook Pro refresh is “coming sooner than you think” while providing no details on the time-frame.
Well, one MacBook Pro MagSafe Power Adapter of mine bites the dust. I was in the middle of using the 15-inch MacBook Pro Core Duo which I bought back in 2006 when I noticed the screen was automatically dimmed. There was no change in the ambient lighting. I noticed the MagSafe connector was no longer lit-up then I heard a loud popping noise coming from the power adapter. I immediately unplugged and inspected the power adapter. I could smell a burning electric component coming from the power adapter. I guess I’d have to head out and get a replacement in the morning. It would be $80 plus sales tax at the Apple Store. I could also buy the 85-Watt MagSafe Power Adapter from Amazon and have it delivered on Friday. Either way, I’d have to spend the money. I do have one that I always leave at home.
