Apple refreshes MacBook Pro (finally)!

Rumors somehow true / long wait is over / finally, grr, after much anticipation--what you'll probably say (if you're on the watch) of this latest bit of news on Apple.

Apple today refreshed its MacBook Pro range of mobile computers. Each now ships with 4GB of memory and new Intel Core processors with clocks ranging from 2.4GHz to 2.66GHz. Buyers now are offered options for glossy, high resolution glossy, and high resolution glossy with anti-glare displays. I actually want to upgrade, but it'll have to wait (and I'm doing fine with my white 2009 MacBook), I'm saving up for an iPad!

Lenten and the iPad craze

In the Philippines, Lenten is a week of reflection, of looking back and moving forward, of renewing your faith. For me that's like four days of home sweet home, which, when later I'd realize I can't help but go online and check out some news. (My wife and I will need to tend to our "farm").

And what do you know, all the tech world is abuzz with the iPad's release this 3rd of April. Check out this link. A lot of good reviews have been outed, and some negative, extremely anti-Jobs verdicts were cascaded, but generally Apple has indeed stirred the computing industry once again. It's tech-beauty, it's wonderful to look at, easy to use in a touchy-feely way, and drool many can only do for now.

I want one, unfortunately, we can only hope to see a release date late this April for Asia. Oh, I need to save for this one (I want the WIFI+3G). It's like hoping that Easter bunny's lending me an iPad egg to hatch.
