MacBook Review (Part 2)

Hey there potential Mac users!

I've just remade my previous YouTube video "MacBook Review Part 2" because the first version was crap and hard to follow. With a bit of luck, I hope this new version is more concise and easier for you to follow.

Here's an overview of the things I discuss in this video:

• Benefits of the MagSafe Power Adapter.
• The cool application known as iAlertU for Mac.

MagSafe Power Adapter

Well this is somewhat genius! Why nobody else had thought of this already is beyond me.

Basically, the MagSafe magnetically connects to your MacBook's power port (on the left hand-side of the MacBook). Not only does this make it easier for the user to recharge the MacBook, it also helps prevent damage to the cable, port and worse, your MacBook - if you or someone else accidentally trips on the cord.

Another benefit to the MagSafe is that the actual cord itself is smaller than your average power cord typically found on PC-Windows-based laptops. When using PC Laptops I always found the bulkiness of the power adapter to be a nuisance, but Apple have obviously understood this and fixed the problem the best they can.

In addition, the MagSafe Power Adapter is equipped with a detachable plug (see my review to understand what i mean), which allows you to connect a power cord extension if you need the extra length to reach a power source. This is perfect for any user who doesn't like the inconvenience of bulky cords, yet likes to have the ability to reach awkward power points.

Hmm, what else?

The bottom line is that Apple know what they're doing. Much more than what I could say for Windows-based laptop makers are doing. I suppose it all comes down to personal preference - well, MacBook's allow plenty of personal preference!

Oh, and the MagSafe Power Adapter comes standard on all MacBook's and MacBook Pro's.


iAlertU

This is a cool little application you can download for FREE from this website, MacUpdate.com.

Basically what this cool gadget aims to do is protect your MacBook from thieves or any other jealous PC users out there.

After downloading the software, open the application (you should see a small circle icon appear on your toolbar), grab the remote control that comes standard with all MacBook's and MacBook Pro's, point it at the remote sensor at the front of the MacBook and hold down the 'Menu' button until you hear "BLIP! BLIP!". This means iAlertU has armed your MacBook, so that if someone presses a key or tries to move your MacBook, a car alarm sound will ring until you disarm iAlertU by holding down 'Menu' again to hear a disarmed sound.

Once again, make sure you check out my YouTube video MacBook Review Part 2 about all of these cool things OR just see it here.



Well, I think that's all i have to write for now, but in the meantime, please post comments and questions either on my YouTube videos or here on the blog, and I will respond as soon as I can with blog answers and YouTube video responses.

Don't forget to rate the videos too!

Thanks for watching and reading my blog. Stay tuned!

Cheers!
